3. Hedwig's Theme from the Harry Potter Series
I think that this song represents William Shakespeare's life because Hedwig's theme has a mysterious sound
to it. We do not have a lot of records and information on William Shakespeare, so we do not know much about him.
Also, with the lost years, we lost a lot of information about him, so parts of Shakespeare's life is hard for us to
understand. The mysterious music in this song signifies the mysteries that we are still trying to solve about
Shakespeare. Since we don't have a lot of information on him, most of his life remains a mystery for us. Therefore,
the song, Hedwig's theme is a good song to represent Shakespeare's life.

5. Canon in D - Pachelbel
This song represents Shakespeare's life because it represents his time period in which he lived in. Back then, the
only music they would have, would be songs with no lyrics, like classical songs. Canon in D is a classical piece
which can represent the type of music that they had before. Classical pieces, and instrumental music would be the
music often listened to. There would also be singing on the streets, but they were not often sung, as street music
would only be sung on special occasions, so classical and instrumental music would be the most popular kind of
music people would be listening to in the Tudor and Elizabethan era. Therefore, Canon in D is a good example of a
song that can represent William Shakespeare's life.
