The Carnival of the Animals - Aquarium
updated
'The Flight to Neverland' and 'There you are Peter' (the second being the track title in the 2 disc version)
Rights are either John Williams or Disney
I imagine Warner Bros. have assumed all the rights to this music (Even though they had no part in making it) but this is an original recording by me, not by them. The music is available in score form for piano, I just adapted it back to orchestra and choir.
Rights should be to John Williams but I'm sure someone else will take the credit
It was debuted on the 20th of August, 1882 at Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour.
Legal
Original music by John Williams, Original performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra - I suppose Disney own the rights now (roll on Episode VII - don't cock it up)
As it's John Williams' 80th Birthday this year, I thought I'd re-do one of my favourites of his. So, without further ado, here is John Williams' Flight to Neverland from the film Hook.
Sequenced with Noteworthy Composer
John Williams' superb "Buckbeak's Flight" from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I've modified the beginning from the other versions I've done and reworked some other parts. It's probably the last version I'll do but I said that before!
Alexandre Desplat's Obliviate from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Sequenced with Noteworthy Composer.

I don't own the rights to the ORIGINAL music or the pic.
I don't own the rights to the pictures used but the music, though obviously not composed by me, is done by me.
Legal rubbish:
This is NOT the original music. This is a synthesized version that have put together from listening to the original music (readily available from all good music shops). The Picture is from the movie, so it's owned by Warner Bros inc.

Merry Christmas everyone!
THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL, IT IS A RECREATION, REPLICA, IMITATION and all the other words in the thesaurus that describe this as not the original.
Picture from Warner, music owned by Alexandre Desplat/Warner Music
Since its that festive time of the year again, I put the background of the Dancing Hippos from Fantasia just because its fun!
Picture belongs to Disney, of course.
Merry Christmas everyone
As usual, the originals are the property of Warner (though by now I'm sure someone else has claimed the rights). The pics are from the movie (for farewell to dobby) and the featurette - Snape's Story (I don't have a dodgy copy of the film)

so that out of the way.
My version of Alexandre Desplat's "Lily's Lulluby" from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. I did this one in about 2 hours so it's certainly the quickest I've done. Also, electronic keyboards still don't do voices to well, especially solo voices so I've had to make do with what I had.

My version of Alexandre Desplat's 'Statues' from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. It has pretty much maxed out my keyboard (certainly approaching the limit to what it can do) so it may be a bit jumpy in places. And, I'll probably tinker with it over the next few weeks to see if I can improve it. Anyway, sequenced as usual with Noteworthy Composer.
Well, the last one was far from perfect so I went away after watching and episode (my favourite one) and re-worked it a little.
My version of Michael Giacchino's Theme from the TV series Fringe. One of my favourite TV shows, I quickly figured out the tune on my iPhone before doing the rest on the computer. Sequenced, as always, with Noteworthy Composer.
Oh and should anyone else like the series, they have begun filming of season 4 - hopefully clear up a hell of a lot of questions!

Music owned by Warner Music, this isn't the original, I worked it out from the Piano Music book published by Warner Music with the help of the Album also from Warner music. Please go out and by the soundtrack for both Part 1 and 2 of Deathly Hallows, they are truely incredible!
OK, that's out of the way
Alexandre Desplat's 'Farewell to Dobby' from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Only about 2 hours work here so a bit quicker than some of my other reproductions. Sequenced with Noteworthy Composer.
Calvyn wants a sword of his own design and he decides to incorporate some magic into its construction. This video is based on the scene of the sword being forged (hence the name).
It starts very, very quietly and builds gently.
Bek is a recruit in Baron Keevan's Army. The son of a nobleman, Bek show a great prowess with a sword,
a skill that will not only save many in battle, but in the challenges that he is to face.
ps. I knocked this one up in about an hour so it may not be up to scratch!
Baron Keevan marches his army from his castle in the north of Thrandor, across the country to the capital city of Mantor.
His troops approach the city through the woods along the northern ridge. As they get close, they hear the sounds of battle.
Keevan has his troops line up and emerge from the treeline to face the invading Terachite Hoards.
Jenna has unusually vivid and compelling dreams while in the service of Baron Keevan. The Dreams are always the same, flying from the Baron's Castle to the Vortaff mountains and always ending at the same stone on one of the peaks. Overlaid is a voice, a voice she doesn't know but she cannot help but listen.

Calvyn and Perdimonn go to a market. Whilst there, Calvyn finds some books printed in the forbidden language of magic (though at the time he doesn't know for certain). While looking through the books, Selkor, a powerful Shandese Magician, appears through the crowd to try and gain access to Perdimonn's greatest secret.
Perdimonn arrives and puts a spanner in Selkor's plan by making time stand still, something that Selkor believes is impossible.
I have used Calvyn's theme in the beginning to bring his innocent exploration of the market, slowing to a deep male choir for Selkor's arrival. When Perdimonn arrives I switch to a higher female choir and bring in a simple version of Perdimonn's theme with some off key bars to bring the feeling of something not being right with the world.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy.
The ORIGINAL music is copyright to John Williams and who ever owns the music rights (think its warner now). The images are owned by Lucasarts/films or 20th Century Fox/WB/Universal or what other company wants to try and claim on it. This is NOT the Original recording obviously and if anyone thinks that I've infringed on copyright - the music books are available from just about every good bookshop/music shop and please moan about the ones who've uploaded the actual originals from the album!
OK, rant over
My version of john Williams 'The Emperor Arrives' from Star Wars Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi. An updated version of the old video.

3 - Prokofiev - Lieutenant Kije: Troika (a real Christmas Classic)
plus an excerpt from the Mozart Horn Concerto in E-flat Major
Calvyn is sent to Terilla, a small city on the southern border of Shandar. There, he is to deliver a message to the Council of Magicians. He finds them in the School of Magic where, after delivering his message, he is inducted as a student. This piece is set in one of the lessons where he excels and infact, amazes the teachers he is studying under - all due to Perdimonn's unique way of teaching, his approach to magic and to Calvyn's own raw talent.
Following an encounter with Selkor, the Shandese Magician, in a Marketplace in northern Thrandor, Perdimonn decides that he and Calvyn must part company. This decision puts Calvyn on his path to the service of Baron Keevan and his first step to becoming a solider.
Jenna has to put all of her military training to use when Perdimonn sends her on a quest.
She has to hunt down and kill a Gorvath, a demon that was summoned to their world to consume Calvyn's soul - Long story!
Jenna eventually tracks the creature to the Great Western Forest, which runs from the North of Shandar to the South of Thrandor. The creature has made it's way to the Wizard's Tower (wizardry being the arcaic art that can summon demons) and Jenna must kill the Gorvath before it decides to return to the Demon Realm.
Aided by Gedd, a Shandese Demon Hunter, they track the demon to the tower and attempt to kill it.
This composition is for the last few minutes of her hunt - the final confruntation with the most dangerous demon known to exist.

Calvyn and Jenna are travelling from Terilla (in Southern Shandar) to Mantor, capital city of Thrandor. They are accompanying the Magicians of the Grand Council.
On one night of their travels, whilst camping near the mountains, a fierce storm blows in. Calvyn, awoken by the lightning, immediately falls back on his military training and tries to get the horses to shelter and secure the tents more firmly. During his efforts, Magician Lomand (who also travels with them) emerges from the tent with Grand Magician Akhdar to find out what's happening. They both tell Calvyn his efforts are a waste of time and ask Calvyn to fetch the horses back. With Lomand's help they soon have the horses back in camp.
At this point Grand Magician Akhdar produces the Staff of Dantillus. An ancient relic used for focusing magical spells and increasing their power. He channels a spell to protect them from the elements through the staff and a bubble of shimmering green forms around their camp. The shield spell attracts the lightning which bounces harmlessly off the protective dome.
Akhdar just gives Calvyn a little smile and wanders back into the tent to sleep.
This piece goes with that scene - a favourite of mine in the books!
This is one of my favourite guitar pieces but since I'm nowhere near good enough on the guitar (or fast enough) to do this, I've tried sequencing it. It's an approximation of the piece as played by Julian Bream and John Williams (my favourite version)
