Final Four “Harry Potter” Film Soundtracks Have Been Released on Clear Vinyl

Last year, the Harry Potter soundtrack vinyl boxed sets were released, featuring over ten hours of music from all eight Potter films, with four color variations available – one for each Hogwarts House. Now, Rhino Entertainment has released the final four film soundtracks on clear vinyl.

These new editions are a must-have for collectors, since they come in a format that feels both nostalgic and collectible.

The new clear vinyl pressings include the music from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, both scored by Nicholas Hooper, as well as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 and Part 2, composed by Alexandre Desplat.

  The four new “Harry Potter” clear vinyl soundtrack covers.

  Hooper’s work on Half-Blood Prince remains a highlight in the series’ musical history, with the soundtrack becoming the highest-charting Harry Potter album on the Billboard 200 and even earning a Grammy nomination.

Each release comes as a two-LP set on crystal-clear vinyl. In addition to the music itself, these editions feature etched artwork on select sides, making them visually striking. For fans who bought the earlier black-vinyl editions or even the expansive 16-LP box set released in 2024, these clear pressings round out the collection beautifully.

The release has been especially exciting for collectors in the United States, where select retailers are offering exclusive Harry Potter glasses as a bonus with purchase.

For collectors, this release also highlights just how important the music of Harry Potter has been in shaping the identity of the films. While many fans remember the iconic opening notes of John Williams’ “Hedwig’s Theme,” the later composers carried that legacy forward and gave each installment its own emotional voice. Hooper’s lighter touches in Order of the Phoenix underscored moments of teenage mischief while still hinting at darker times ahead, and Desplat’s work on the Deathly Hallows films gave the franchise a sense of grandeur and finality. Having these scores preserved on vinyl allows listeners to hear the detail in a way that feels closer to sitting in the cinema when the films first came out. 

For many fans, hearing these soundtracks on vinyl is about more than just the music, it’s about reliving the story itself, and a chance not only to revisit the magic, but also to hold a piece of it in their hands.

The Tree Of Life's 11th anniversary ~ Malick's magnum opus, musing on life & existence on a microscopic & universal scale, be it the birth of a child or the birth of a star, his images structured in flashes & fragments are both ravishing & profound, like watching a living memory.

I love this rendition of Lily’s Theme in this. It’s so powerful and blew me away the first time I heard it.

Listening to this, I feel that Lily is always watching over Harry. She never left.
