Celebrating Harry Potter Day with WithFeeling: A Magical Rendition of Hedwig's Theme
Every year on May 2, people celebrate Harry Potter Day to remember the Battle of Hogwarts and J.K. Rowling's wizarding world. On this special day, fans all over the world reread their favourite book series, watch the movies, and do other magical things. This year, Joe, WithFeeling's resident musical wizard, decided to honour Harry Potter Day by recreating Hedwig's Theme by John Williams using a brand new virtual instrument called the Intimate Legato Cello, which was made by our friends at Sonixinema. Let's talk about the magic of Harry Potter Day, John Williams's amazing music, and Sonixinema's innovative work with virtual instruments.
The Day of the Magic of Harry Potter
Harry Potter Day gives fans a chance to get lost in the magical world of Hogwarts, reliving their favourite moments and talking about how much they love the series with other fans. It is a day that shows how J.K. Rowling's books and films have changed the lives of millions of people and inspired generations of readers and moviegoers. On Harry Potter Day, there are things like book readings, movie marathons, cosplay gatherings, and parties with a magical theme. All of these things are meant to keep the spirit of the wizarding world alive.
Hedwig's Theme Was Written by John Williams, a Musical Genius
John Williams, a famous composer who has written music for many famous films, wrote the haunting Hedwig's Theme for the Harry Potter films. Fans have come to associate the hauntingly beautiful melody with the magical world of Harry Potter, and it still makes them feel a sense of awe and magic. Williams' music has been a big part of what makes the series what it is and how the audience feels about it. This shows how powerful music and sound can be in telling a story.
