The sixth installment in the film franchise. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same. The score features music by Nicholas Hooper, who took the reigns as composer during the last film, "Order Of The Phoenix".

Excellent music

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2013

Verified Purchase

This soundtrack, and the Order of the Phoenix also by Nicholas Hooper, suffer in some people's minds from the lack of soaring theme music like on the first Harry Potter CD.

But the theme song is already written, and these movies require more subtle sounds and songs. Which they deliver.

Both are darker, less childlike songs, also as required by the increasing dark and depressing world of the Harry Potter series. It's no longer a child's world of school tests and jumping candy frogs. Evil has been released, and is winning.

Highlights here include Opening, a dark and foreboding introduction, In Noctum, with a haunting chorus, Into the Rushes, a prelude to battle with evil, and my favorite, the haunting Slughorn's Confession. A silly name, through accurate. It perfectly fits the mood of Slughorn's confession - sorrow, loss, and guilt.

Good soundtrack, but incomplete

Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2011

Verified Purchase

I really like the ambient nature of the music in Half Blood Prince (sorry John Williams snobs). It's great to hear the subtleties in the music that are inaudible in the movie due to interfering dialogue or distracting noises. The sound quality here is crystal clear.

My only complaint is that two pieces of music were left off that I was really looking forward to hearing. Missing is the tense music played when Harry, Ron and Hermione are pursuing Draco and his mom in Nocturn Alley. Also missing is the haunting music played just after Dumbledore is killed. Really!!!?

There was plenty of room on the CD capacity to have included them, and they did include plenty of musical pieces that were rather less memorable, so I don't get it. Minus one star from Gryffindor, I mean, this soundtrack.

Another Great Sound Track

Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

I imagine a lot of people hoped that the very delightful and sort of upbeat themes that John Williams penned would continue, but anyone who has read the books knows the picture grows continually darker. So it is with the sound tracks of the movies. Nicholas Hooper does a wonderful job of conveying this darkness without overwhelming you with it. His music very nicely accompanies the mood of the film from beginning to end, and I like it enough to give it 5/5.

The movies are not the only thing magical about Harry Potter.

Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2010

Verified Purchase

Right out the gate, Dumbledore and Harry after the death of Sirius and flashes going off from the cameras. The music puts you in the moment. The sadness is overwhelming, you can really feel for this kid, who just can't seem to get a break. I love this CD. My personal favorite is the Goblet of Fire soundtrack, but this one gives it a run for it's money. "Ginny", "Harry and Hermione", simple, yet beautiful. This is an easy CD to listen to, beginning to end. Finally, the second to the last, "The Friends", if this just doesn't feel you up with emotion, as you can see the three standing together looking out at the lake and the grounds of Hogwarts, then your just not into it. As for me, I'm totally into it. It's magical! However, I was wondering where is the music that's playin during Ron's tryouts for the Quidditich team? It's was tones of fun but it doesn't appear to be on the soundtrack.

Bought it for my Wedding, Got so much more out of it.

I will be using the song "When Harry Kissed Ginny" from this album to walk down the aisle to next month. Bought this album and honestly love all the songs on it. You can close your eyes and watch the movie happening in your head as you hear the music!

This is probably my favorite HP soundtrack

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2013

Verified Purchase

Nicholas Hooper goes further/deeper/more poignant in Half Blood Prince. "In Noctem" sets the mood beautifully and, for me, communicates the tragedy of Draco, a boy who should be enjoying school life but is haunted and pressured by his mission. The simple guitar tune "When Ginny Kissed Harry" is exquisite. And there is of course that great crescendo when Dumbledore and Harry "Journey to the Cave." Breathtaking.

Harry Potter and Fantasy Club

I'm starting a Harry Potter and fantasy club. I ordered this product to use in that club. The club is for children ages 5-17. The seller was excellent. Everything arrived on time and for the cost we go more than we expected. The kids love this item.

Subtle Soundtrack, very effective within the context of the movie

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2009

Verified Purchase

Yes, you are not going to see any of these songs top the pop charts anytime soon. In this movie, the music does not dwarf the action, it enhances it. This first time I saw this movie, I couldn't even remember the soundtrack after seeing it. But on repeated viewings, I came to really appreciate the soundtrack, and decided to pick up the dvd.

Some people complained that the soundtrack lacks emotion. Owch, check out "Harry & Hermione" and then say that. That particular piece I think is brilliant and underscores one of the more memorable scenes for me in recent memory (with the pan around the tower). The piece called "When Ginny Kissed Harry" is similarly sentimental, but didn't move me quite as much. "Ron's Victory" worked brilliantly within the context of the movie, but doesn't stand on its own quite so well imho.
