HIGHLIGHTS ALL-STAR LINE-UP

Burbank, CA: There's musical magic afoot on the Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, set for release on Warner Sunset Records, November 15th, 2005.

Music from fourth installment of the phenomenal Harry Potter film franchise, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack features a score by Academy Award-nominated composer Patrick Doyle, best known for his work on Donnie Brasco, Bridget Jones' Diary, Hamlet and Sense And Sensibility. Doyle takes over musical duties from John Williams, who composed the music for the last three Harry Potter films, which together were nominated for three Grammy Awards and two Oscars and sold more than a million copies worldwide. Also available as a digital download, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack includes liner notes from the film's director Mike Newell.

The album also features three new original songs, two of which were written by acclaimed recording artist Jarvis Cocker and the third co-written by Cocker and Jason Buckle.

Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire continues author J.K. Rowling's immensely popular Harry Potter novel series with Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) being selected to compete in the prestigious Triwizard Tournament, which pits him against older and more experienced students from Hogwarts and two rival European wizarding schools. Meanwhile, supporters of Harry's nemesis, the evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes), send a shockwave of fear throughout the wizard community when their Dark Mark scorches the sky at the Quidditch World Cup, signaling Voldemort's return to power. But for Harry, this is not the only harrowing news causing him anxiety - he still has yet to find a date for Hogwarts' Yule Ball dance.
