The Music of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, a previously announced album of music by Imogen Heap from the internationally acclaimed stage production, has premiered two previously unreleased tracks from the album: "Platform 9¾" and "In Trouble (Again)." The songs are now available on music streaming sites.

Written, composed, performed, and recorded by Grammy winner Imogen Heap, The Music of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child will be released by Sony Music Masterworks and available in stores as well as digitally on November 2. It is presented as four contemporary musical suites, each showcasing one of the play's theatrical acts. This unique new album format chronologically features the music heard in the stage production, further reworked to transport listeners on a sonic journey through the world of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a new play written by Thorne and directed by Tiffany. The production received its world premiere in July 2016 at the Palace Theatre in London, where it continues to play to sold-out houses. It opened on Broadway April 22 and received six 2018 Tony Awards.
