Free Music Notes for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Free Music Review: Disappointingly pedestrian
Hit: 3 Stars
Let me start by saying I sympathize with Patrick Doyle. Yes, a Harry Potter composer is a great gig but you have to follow three soundtracks by John Williams. Doyle has a quite respectable pedigree of smallish British films to his credit, BUT this ain't "Sense and Sensibility". You have to bring it up a notch. Unfortunately, like the film itself, the soundtrack feels to episodic; as though there are pieces missing.
Goblet starts off promising: "The Story Continues" is an excitingly dramatic opener that deftly weaves in "Hedwig's Theme" and hints at Elfman-esque grandeur. Similarly, "The Quidditch World Cup" and "Foreign Visitors Arrive" are solid tunes but from there the album devolves into atmospheric music in search of a film to accompany. Several of the songs ARE pretty in a pensive way, but its just too little.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Poster
Big news on the Harry Potter musical front: After scoring the first three installments in the series, John Williams has been replaced by Patrick Doyle. Still, Williams never feels far away. His main theme pops up here and there, and a track like "Voldemort," which eloquently illustrates the soul of a blacker-than-black wizard with thunderous cymbal crashes, shrieking horns, tumultuous strings, and a stately finish, firmly belongs in the Williams mode. Overall, Doyle acquits himself well. He can do light when needed ("The Quidditch World Cup," which starts out like some kind of jig), but mostly he's required to be ominous ("The Quidditch World Cup," which ends in martial war chants). Among the highlights are the aforementioned "Voldemort," but also the frantic, overpowering "The Dark Mark." Note that the CD concludes on a jarringly different note with three songs by the Weird Sisters, the group that performs at Hogwarts' Yule Ball. Led by Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, the ad hoc band also includes members of Radiohead and Cocker's side project Relaxed Muscle. "Do the Hippogriff" is a fast-paced rocker that somehow comes across like a grungy hybrid of Billy Idol's "White Wedding" and "Dancing with Myself." The other two songs--"This Is the Night" and "Magic Works"--are less obvious, and much better. Still, the contrast between these tracks and the instrumental score that precedes them may not be to everybody's taste. --Elisabeth VincentelliHarry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the fourth film (and soundtrack album) in the massively successful Harry Potter franchise-nearly $1 billion in U.S. box office alone-features a score by Academy Award-nominated composer Patrick Doyle and three songs written by modern rocker Jarvis Cocker, and performed by Cocker, Jonny Greenwood, Phil Selway, Steve Claydon and Jason Buckle-with all these musicians also appearing in the movie.
