The small-scale study selected 14 characters from the "Harry Potter" movies and asked participants to report which one they identified with most

An upcoming concert series promises to bring new meaning to the concept of surround sound, when fans will be able to watch the Harry Potter movies accompanied by a live orchestra.

"The Harry Potter Film Concert Series" will reformat each Harry Potter film bringing in a live orchestra to play the score in synchronization with the film, reports Variety.

The film itself will be projected onto a high-definition 40-foot screen.

The North American tour will begin with "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" this summer, kicking off in Philadelphia.

The concert series is produced by CineConcerts and Warner Brothers who have orchestrated similar concerts for films such as "Gladiator," "The Godfather," "It's a Wonderful Life," "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Star Trek."

The North American tour will be accompanied by the San Diego Symphony, Nashville Symphony, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, Grand Rapids Pops and Symphony Silicon Valley.

The Philadelphia premiere is scheduled for June 23 and tickets go on sale February 20 through Ticketmaster.
