Foreign Visitors ArrivePatrick Doyle

In the fourth installment of the series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, students arrive from overseas wizarding schools.
This piece is the background music that plays during their arrival scene.
They come in a carriage drawn by winged horses and a ship sailing beneath the water.
The grand staging, so characteristic of the wizarding world, matches the mood of this track perfectly.
It’s a highly dynamic soundtrack that heightens anticipation for the story—making you wonder, “What’s going to happen now that they’ve arrived?”
Fawkes the PhoenixJohn Williams

This is the piece that plays during Fawkes the phoenix’s appearance in the second installment, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
It begins with an intro that evokes the graceful figure that even made Dumbledore declare, “A truly beautiful creature,” then moves into a mystical melody representing the scene where he bursts into flames and is reborn from the ashes.
Finally, it reaches its conclusion as he seems to soar through the sky, spreading his crimson wings and trailing his golden tail.
In conclusion
We’ve introduced some of the most popular background music from the Harry Potter series through the years! Did you find what you were looking for? Just listening to the tracks makes it clear that, like the films, they’re all wonderful works.
I hope this article has helped you dream about the magical world.
