Usually I'm saying how I wish I was in England, but just for this weekend, I wish I was in Canada and could see this! I love the score from SS and fireworks are always a plus. :o)

That's pretty cool. I love to watch fireworks, and I love the HP music. Put them together and you have one cool show. I'm a trumpet player in my band at school, (I have been playing for 6 years) and so I love music. I love to listen to it and I love to play it. So this is a really cool thing for a music lover to hear about!

Wow, that sounds like an awesome concert. Harry Potter, the 1812 Overture and The Marriage of Figaro all in one concert! I agree - wish I could be in Canada to see and hear it. I have the soundtracks from both movies, and the sheet music from the first one. I especially enjoy "Hedwig's Theme." I hope that if someone here makes it, they give us a report.

This sounds like it would be a great time! Fireworks, music, and HP what else do you want? Of course I won't be able to go but maybe one of us will and take some photos. They would be greatly appreciated.

That's a great idea! I wish I were in Canada, but that seems a littel too far away from my home... But it just has to be great. Who doesn't like fireworks? And of course, who doesn't like harry potter...
