Harry Potter Theme Song a Classic FM Favorite

Radio listeners in the UK have selected Hedwig’s Theme by John Williams as the all time favorite in a new poll of children’s classics for station Classic FM. The PA reports the iconic main theme song for the Harry Potter films was the winner,”with youngsters choosing it ahead of other movie scores such as Jurassic Park, Pirates of the Caribbean and E.T. But more traditional classical tunes by Pachelbel and Tchaikovsky figure highly in the list unveiled on the station.”

The article says that “Classic FM has almost half a million listeners under the age of 18
and is releasing an album of Children’s Classics to tie in with the
countdown on November 23. Darren Henley, Classic FM managing
director, said: “This poll shows that age is no barrier to enjoying the
world’s greatest music. Classical music is as relevant a part of
people’s lives in the 21st century, whether they’re aged eight or 88.”
