John Williams: 'A Window to the Past' - piano solo version

This piece comes from Williams' music to 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban' and is played as published in the Alfred compilation 'Best Movie Songs 2000-2005'. On the soundtrack to the 2004 movie, the theme is played on recorder (and the version played here is preceded by the unaccompanied melody on recorder). It has an 'English' feel - rather in the style of 'Greensleeves'.

way to butcher the song, you play it twice as fast as you should and it takes away from the emotion /watch?v=MrZB9nPMvS4 <-- that's the actual speed at which the song is played.

@kurtsie527 you dont have to be rude, it's a cover so people can interpret it differently

@AdVaNtUregirl Thank you very much. For copyright reasons I can't send you the notes (I don't have them anyway as I used a library copy). If you search for the piece on MusicRoom you should find it.
