Harry Potter Soundtracks

This entire week all I have been listening to is the Harry Potter soundtracks especially from the first movie. The reason why is because I am rereading the series and the music makes the books even better. It makes the scenes in my head play out like a movie but with much more detail. 
 I especially like music from the first movie because of the light and whimsical feel. It goes with the idea I have that since this music makes me think of when Harry Potter first discovered the wizarding world and it's magical and innocent, it will make me feel like I'm beginning a new journey.( Even thought I read the series 7 times through) I actually have a playlist on Youtube of all the songs from the soundtrack but here are two I feel go with my idea.
I don't really like any music from the later movies because you can feel Harry having all this teenage angst and the music makes me more depressed then excited for a new journey. 

I just think music helps fuel the imagination which is what reading needs.
