who wrote the music for harry potter

The music for the Harry Potter films was composed by a sequence of famed composers: John Williams wrote the scores for the first three films, Patrick Doyle for Goblet of Fire, Nicholas Hooper for Order of the Phoenix and Half- Blood Prince, and Alexandre Desplat for Deathly Hallows Part 1 and Part 2. The overarching theme, Hedwig’s Theme, was originally composed by John Williams and has been reprised and woven into the later scores as well.
