"Harry's Wondrous World" is a suite which represents Harry Potter in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.[1] Both films have their own version of the suite, with little differences in the arrangement.
Composed by John Williams, this suite is composed of several themes of the same composer which are part of the soundtrack of the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, including, but not limited to:
- "Hedwig's Theme" (which is Harry Potter's main theme)
- "Hogwarts Forever"
- "The Quidditch Match"
The suite is played during the closing credits of both the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
This theme, due to its lively nature, was played during certain DVD special features for both films but was absent in later films as the series moved on to other composers and much darker themes.[1]
