"I spoke directly with Headquarters. Apparently, Voyager was declared officially lost 14 months ago. I set the record straight. they asked me to relay a message. They wanted you to know you're no longer alone."
The chills of hearing voyager knowing she rests safe in the Starfleet museum brings a warm heart and cold tears know her struggles are finally over
It would be nice to see her in action again.
My wife took me to this concert in Charlotte, NC. Best wife ever.
he who dies with the most wives wins...... or something like that...........or is it loses??
"A thing of beauty is a joy forever." You are one lucky man. A keeper.
@Benjamin Hausmann --- Not paying extra to watch it! They can't just put it on regular TV channels, they have to charge you more for everything, one of these days they are going to charge you extra just wipe your ass!
a keeper, I reckon.
Some public restrooms charge you, just to take a number two!
Been a fan for 50 years, these tunes still give me goosebumps.
Absolutely!
Been a fan for a lot less than 50 years, but the tunes give me goosebumps too
Yes! Me too!
Sure do!
I'm only 30, and I'm a Trekkie since I'm just 14. I can say Star Trek is intemporal
NB : Qapla'
The last scene of Picard playing the flute and remembering how to play that gorgeous piece of music even though he had lived a whole life as someone else in just a few minutes may be one of the greatest and most emotional endings of any TV show ever.
The only scene that really surpasses all in Trek is when Sisko breaks down in Far Beyond The Stars.
In real life the flute didn't even work lol
When i heard the flute i choked, when writing was writing and acting was acting, and Star Trek was a beautiful thing.
Which movie/episode are you referring to?
@@Ecoxiss TNG. The Inner Light.
Instead of the usual Top Gun music, I had "the Search for Spock" and "The Breaking of the Fellowship" played at my Navy retirement. The torch is passed to the next generation. May this beautiful music live on forever. 🇺🇲🖖
Fair Winds Shipmate
'Muricuh 🔫😎 yeaaAAAh
Thank you for your service. My sister, brother, brother in law, 2 nephews and one niece…Navy
Nice! The Search for Spock is glorious. I chose it to play to the entrance to Monument Valley.
@@taroman7100 Great idea. I will do the same when I finally get to visit Monument Valley. Hopefully some day soon.🖖
judging by his facial expressions and gusto, that conductor isnt just doing a job, he's a big time trekkie living out a dream
sudden flashback to the DS9 episode where nog and jake have to trade dozens of items/favours between dozens of people, and at one point nog has to listen to classical music at monster volume to detect minute imperfections (and only he can do that because of his giant fine-tuned ferengi ears), royally annoying jake in the process
Wolf de Guerre Self sealing stem bolts. Whatever those are. :)
he looks like sulu's ancestor
That the choice of music for The Next Generation was from S5:E25 is a definite indication. The Inner Light. I couldn't believe it when I heard it.
he might have done it for free, he really looks like he is living the dream!
All Trek Universe music is iconic, but damn!! That Voyager theme is just remarkable.
agree. goosebumps!
Jerry Goldsmith man one of the biggest composer of the world
I'd say the Voyager theme and the First Contact theme are about tied. They are both beautiful.
It’s a classic!!!!
Jerry Goldsmith was a genius. His music is sublime!
Would’ve been hilarious to see Johnathon Frakes playing the trombone!
I had to check to see if he actually knew how to play the trombone, and he does! He's played for fans at conventions before
That would have been amazing! 😅
In between m
Marina Sirtis calls out "night bird!"
Damn The Inner Light got me all choked up for that episode again 😫😭
Of all the souls I have known, his was the most human...
Well said Bester!
And there goes a tear in my eyes.
Is there a version of "The Wrath of Khan" out there in which Kirk says, "his was the most noble"? I seem to remember hearing that - and being surprised by him *not* saying, "human."
Of all the souls I have encountered in my countless travels, his was the most... Human.
I am God I am a strong k99
The Inner Light- still a thing of beauty, 30 years later.
Star trek voyager is my favourite Star Trek of all time. Hearing the theme reminds me of my time in High school when I was first introduced to Star Trek 10 years after it came out here in South Africa. I still watch Voyager to this day. Thank you for the beautiful rendition...
As I watch this I'm having a hard time controlling my emotions! I've been watching Star Trek since its beginning in 1967, and it's an integral part of my life. Never underestimate the sheer power and majesty of a symphony orchestra.
You need more Kohlinar in your life! 😐🖖
Jkjk, same here tbh

Well, Jolan Tru to you too. 😏
Amazing isn't it. Over the course of the concert I've gone from close to tears, to close to cheering, and back again. Remarkable!
James Horner's opening to Wrath of Khan is just sublime.
bodie of ci5 After not hearing any OG Trek themes in the motion picture, im sure audiences had a blast hearing that opening in the theater for Wrath of Khan. It’s like “Yeah you’re boutta watch one of the best Star Trek films ever so get ready”
The best ever.
it's astounding how damn good this is...each melody is as good as the one before, the colors of the arrangement are nuts. It's really amazing
An interesting little factoid: The musical sorcerer we know as James Horner was only 28 years old when he wrote WOK. Too bad he passed before his time. We should ban important people like him from doing fun (and dangerous) things like flying airplanes, snow skiing etc. J/K of course!
@@artloverivy That is EXACTLY how it was. The theater audience cheered loudly when those notes from the original series started off. It was quite the thing to experience.
Yellow alert yellow alert...Styles: "Bridge how can you have a yellow alert in space dock? Bridge: "Sir someone is stealing the Enterprise!" Styles: "on my way!" Its crazy just listening to the music you can see it taking place!
The Wrath of Khan theme never fails to give me goosebumps. So good.
FINALLY! A live performance finishes the Voyager theme with all the timpani and dramaticness that it deserves!
It's the best one!!
@@pamtebelman2321 Normally they just sort of segue it into another tune and water down the dramatic ending. They didn't this time!
@@RS250Squid I am glad they did!
Never really realized how important the French horns are in this music
Hey, we are fans too ;)
My concert instructor called the trombones the wheels of the car...it was the French horn that was its engine. (Strings were the frame/structure while winds were the fuel/gas).
Yeah, but I still like the music, anyway.
Yeah most of the Star Trek Themes use French Horns. That's what gives the themes that depth.
Can't believe the horns! superb playing - no idea how their lip holds out for that long with so much playing (and high notes). Respect.
Inner Light theme can still make me cry. Such a beautiful episode with such a beautiful melody.
I was lucky to see this at the Royal Albert Hall in the UK the same year, and I'm not ashamed to say that some of these tracks bought tears to my eyes, so overwhelmingly powerful!
I'm so jealous.
Indeed.
You've just got to be into the Star Trek genre to really appreciate this orchestration of Star Trek theme music. It's just off the chart fantastically incredible!
Even if you're not a Trekkie, good music is what it is.
that is the best orchestral rendition of the star trek series ive ever listened to
The Inner Light makes me cry. No shame in saying that, the episode was so emotional. The piece is so amazing I had it played at my wedding :)
In my opinion it's always represented the essence of Star Trek
And no, you're not the only one in that case, far from it.
And by the way The Inner Light is still the piece of music that still makes me cry the most in movies / series (and I've seen a lot and still watching)
Have no shame! You are a human! The feeling is mutual!
Me too, as soon as it played!
Watching it for the first time I also cried 😭
This rendition of the Star Trek 2 theme is so incredibly good. It might as well be the master recording from the movie.
It is actually better. The original score was done with a smaller pick-up studio orchestra as the entire film was made on a smaller budget than the original ST Motion Picture which was over budget and over blown. I remember reading at the time they used a skeleton orchestra with 20 violins as opposed to a full orchestra like London Symphonies which would have over 40. Smaller wind section, too.
Great film and great scoring!
This version indeed sounds bigger & better.@@alpsskiingrocks
It's SO good.
Ohh Myy Godd !!! The beauty of this performance is immeasurable. Pure class and talent.
Ok, new life goal: visit Film Music Prague Festival
Please do, would love to see you here :D
considering your name, you are from Island, so its not too far to come here to Prague by plane, you will be welcome. ;)
I don't know why, but every time i hear the theme from Voyager, it makes me cry. It's so beautiful.
It is evocative of the ocean to me. I love this theme, too.
Both Voyager and Deep Space Nine get me right in the feels every time.
You are complety correct, perhaps it's becuase they made it home.
O mesmo acontece comigo.
I was just thinking the same thing a minute ago and then saw your comment. I have always felt Janeway to be my Captain.
I envy anyone who saw this concert live. It never gets old listening or watching. Just....wow! 👍♥️🎶🎵
i dont know who the conductor was, but he was incredable- and so was the orchestra.i thoughti was moved when i heard john williams orchestrate "superman" in 1979, and emperial march in 2016. this was totaly movivg to me, and at 71- thats music that returned life to me. this new asian condutor is worthy of carrying john williams torch. to old timers like me who was actually their, i say well done! thank you for the memories.
Love or hate the genre, there can be no denying that it offers some of the finest music of our time
Of at the least, memorable themes. Great performance!
far superior to the crap we hear now in modern film. Need to bring back thematic orchestral pieces that are exciting and fun like this to listen to.
Absolutely Majestic! My friend brought
The soundtrack to Star Trek the Motion picture to high school. Our teacher let us play it during homeroom. The cool kids looked at us like we're the biggest dorks in creation.
You are the cool kids
No they were the dorks!!! Lol
What do you mean? It's awsome music! How could you be the dorks?
@@aiosquadron he means the cool kids in the story are the real dorks
Been a long time since I've heard the DS9 theme.. spectacular
"The Enterprise" from The Motion Picture is unbeatable. The best theme in film history (and one of the best scenes).
Definitely. Too bad that nowadays, in the "deconstruction era", they doesn't seem to want to make at least one scene like that where we could appreciate the titular ship in the show in it's full glory. I also always liked this main theme much more than any other. Probably because back in the day the Trek of my childhood was TNG :)
I think they ought to have done that with the TNG movies, especially when the introduced the Enterprise E. That said, I think First Contact was a masterful Trek film. They should have worked it into the end of Generations somehow, but I can’t image how that would have worked.
It's beatable; they beat us over the head with it for 30 mins...
I'd say "Enterprise Clears Moorings" is a contender. I'm going to be blasting it from the flybridge when I get my first catamaran.
@@geoffstrebel2808 Enterprise Clears Moorings, yes sir, definitely!
Gene Roddenberry, thank you forever from the bottom of my heart. May you rest in peace among the great men of history. For you have surely made it, with your creation.
The music from "The Wrath of Khan" is some of the best in film .
Daniel Dragisic Agreed. One of the most beautiful scores I’ve ever heard.
I was little kid seeing Wrath of Khan in the theater. Scared me!
@@kellywoods5810 It's even scarrier in book! What Khan did with the scientist to get some info about genesis are quite brutal and they did not showed it on screen. You should read it!
This is one the few clips I’ve seen it played live. It’s very underrated.
James Horner was the man!
All I can say is , "Whew!" That conductor is something else...❤🔥
There is nothing other than to say they NAILED IT AT EVERY BIT. I am listening to this and I can picture in my head the visuals.
I abso6uley LOVE this. I just wish my local orchestra realize what a goldmine nerds are.
Enterprise reveal theme from TMP is a study in majestic, epic film scoring. It's just brilliant!
"This Ship has a Soul, Captain."
*Picard* "Yes, Number One, it has."
Like the first ship.
@@renemanuel7128 Like all Federation ships
Treat her like a lady and she'll always bring you home
CyberPunk Girl - is that a quote from Star Trek? I cannot find it anywhere.
"Second star to the right. And straight on till morning"....
Glad I found this epic treasure! Listened to the whole thing, gave me goosebumps, and even watery eyes. Music can certainly make you feel things, but great music like this can evoke deep emotions. Passing the link along to lots of family and friends. Live long and prosper!
Peace and long life
I did not expect to be instantly brought to tears when the flute began to play The Inner Light... What a powerful and lasting effect these shows have had on me.
That was a really great episode - how to fit so very much into 40 minutes? How to fit a whole other life into a few minutes?
The show achieves with us what the story achieved with its character!
Believe it or not one of my good (Trek-loving) colleagues regards this episode as lame. He is a few years younger than me, though. Think of Picard's secret longing to have lived a more conventional life with wife and kids. Deeply touching in all ways. In one of the movies, Picard cries at the death of his nephew - the closest thing he had to that family.
And then Picard meets Kirk that time, and both dwell on the idea of being married to their ships - sometimes the real-life fate of the Navy officer...
We should not let it mean anything to us out here in "the real world", yet we do and it does.
In the original poem "The Inner Light" (which George Harrison also built on), we read "Without going out of my door, I can know the ways of heaven".
Perhaps we should amend that to "some of/part of" the ways of heaven, but the Holy Spirit came to me in my bedroom, and from that moment I KNOW this is the truth.
Star Trek did this kind of thing for us, and there was always a fierce debate as to whether the show was religious (Roddenberry was determined that it was not, and was not even such a nice guy, yet he had the vision - perhaps literally, and I am pretty sure there is divinity in there somewhere, in spite of everything).
Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no one has gone before!
That’s original
Star Trek music is a master piece in its own right. It's enjoyable to listen to even without seeing the shows related to it.
This is a concert I wish I had been able to attend. The music cuts deep to heart and soul.
I'm in love with the music and those who make it and wonderful conductor ❤❤❤❤😂
"The Inner Light"; I STILL tear up. Every single time.
It is just an amazing melody, can’t help but smile when listening to it
Absolutely nothing!!
Dear Disney, STOP PLAYING STAR WARS ADS WHILE I'M TRYING TO LISTEN TO STAR TREK MUSIC.
It's like ice cream with onions.
I am always amazed at how frequent the commercials are on youtube, when I view youtube with my work account, UA-cam Premire is worth it just due to the lack of commercials alone.
A simple adblock addon will help. And I hope you didn't make the crime to watch this great video in your mobile !
rofl
Yes, but do not forget, Grand Admiral Thran would have kicked the Borgs asses right back into the next galaxy at the Battle of Wolf 359
A reminder of how iconic the entire Star Trek franchise has been, not just in this country but worldwide.
GREAT CONCERT- I'm a TREKIE big time since I'm old enough to have started watching Star Trek from the very beginning- and the conductor WOW talk about DYNAMIC and u could see he's a TREKIE also- FANTASTIC CONCERT SALUTE
The last piece they played from the original series with her wonderful voice took me back 50 years. Just fantastic.
ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SYMPHONIC VERSIONS OF STAR TREK I HAVE EVER HEARD.
Could talk about how beautiful First Contact theme is, the swashbuckling weaving of the Wrath of Khan, the threads through Voyager, the Beauty of Illia's theme, the cheeky Stealing the Enterprise, or the hopeful, epic, gorgeous Generations theme that captures the spirit of Star Trek; but to be honest the entire performance in it's entirety is incredibly special.
One of the few videos on UA-cam I'd be genuinely gutted to lose access to; it captures so much of the values I learned through Star Trek, as indeed many of you in the comments have too.
🖖here's hoping Star Trek captures or rediscovers the magic once again in the future.
That Voyager Theme though - always my fav. This was wonderful.
Damned that lady can sing....what a powerful set of lungs she has. This must have been a heck of a concert to go to :). bravo Prague orchestra!
The 352 that gave this a thumbs down must be Ferengi that don't appreciate HU-MON music. This entire concert is awesome especially Picard's piccolo solo from a TNG episode.
Ha, or maybe some were Nausicaans. "Play Damjat, human!"
At 59 and being a lifelong Star Trek TOS fan, I had no idea that the "vocals" were performed by a human. I had always thought the original version from the 60's used a Theremin or something similar in order to simulate the vocals. I became very emotional seeing the finale of this video.
Little known sad fact. There are lyrics to the theme song. It was written by Roddenbary as a cash grab. It was never recorded. His lyrics would appear in the sheet music. He would get royalties. Alexander Courage was not amused. So GR would be cowritter.
Actually, the signer had the hardest part. Everyone else had the music right in front of them.She didn't have that luxury. She had to have hers memorized.
I think his wife sang it (?)
The vocals, performed by singer Louie Jean Norman (b. 1913, d. 2005) were only in the 2nd season opening title recorded in the 1967. Season 1 used the "cello version" (a more subdued arrangement also performed in this concert) and to avoid paying music royalties to the vocal performer for Season 3, yet another opening rendition was recorded using just a very theremin-like organ sound for the main theme instead of a human voice, screwing Loulie Jean out of continued royalties. Or so the producers thought. But then came the perpetual reruns, and because it is widely considered the best arrangement, most foreign markets ran Star Trek with only the 2nd season title sequence, so Loulie continued to receive her fee after all :)
Conductor is Amazing ! Does the Genius Jerry Goldsmith Score Justice….Music transports me back to a Time when I was so mentally exhausted but Trek soothed me into Chilling out putting things into perspective.
This is the most beautiful, stirring tribute to Star Trek I've ever seen and heard, just beautiful!
Beyond.the rim of star.light.my.love wanders in star.flight, I know he'll find in Star clustered reaches love, strange love a star woman teaches. I know his journey ends never.his Star Trek will go on forever., but tell him while he wanders his starry sea remember remember me. Words to TOS theme by Gene Roddenberry. Thank you.
This is probably the best Trek concert. Outstanding musicians, a wonderful, passionate conductor=a moving performance, not just for Trek fans and soundtrack enthusiasts but for any music lover. Thank you for creating this wonderful experience.
Yes true :)
I agree, especially when you consider that it's a live performance that has to stack up against the very polished studio soundtrack versions, which it actually does to a remarkable degree. Well done!!
The audience seemed a bit restrained.
Agreed!

The score from the motion picture is phenomenal. Gives me goosebumps.
All the songs give me goosebumps, to be honest!
At 30 years old I just discovered and completed TNG for the first time. I was only just born when season 3 was on tv. I didn’t think anything would ever match it, but I just finished Voyager, which I absolutely adored. I feel like I’ve experienced something truly special. A life affecting series of stories. They are utterly ageless and way ahead of their time. And this music... wow. If I live another thirty years, I know I’ll still be listening.
Voyager has a few episodes in which they deal with and issue, THAT WE ARE STILL DEALING WITH TODAY!!!
Voyager? Really? Life affecting? I found it utterly forgettable.
@@Steve-gc5nt Yeah well, you know that’s like uh, your opinion man.
Dude, check out TOS, where it ALL came from.......
@@AzTrailRider57 I did! And it was incredible 🖖🏻
Oh my goodness , im a Star Trek fan also for 50yrs .... this is something else .... and made me cry ... thank you and well played everybody who did this Amazing concert ... WOW ...
The Wrath of Khan theme is my absolute favourite. So beautiful.
This concert was incredible. Such talent!!
Hearing each one of these themes being played brought back so many feelings, much like I was hearing them for the very first time! They are all so great, but it came as a surprise, even to me, that I enjoyed the DS9 theme the most.
Goldsmith-Courage-Giacchino... will live long and prosper in our hearts ♥️
What an incredible performance. That conductor really is a joy to watch, he just looks like he loves what he does.
Agreed - beautiful concert, pure joy and excellence!
i cant stop crying....*love all of it*
This performance has me tearing up more than once.
Thank You for the tears of pure joy..
1:04:19 Star Trek: First Contact - Main Title
Philip Handy Jr. Amen 🖖
It's an interesting decision in the sequence of pieces to have the Nemesis music come before First Contact, because the opening of the Nemesis music is clearly a variation on the opening of First Contact. Personally I would have played First Contact first for that reason, plus it preceded Nemesis in the historical release date as well. Cheers to my fellow Trek Fans!!
the best
Man, that Wrath of Khan soundtrack, still blows me away to this day. James Horners Magnum Opus.
RIP Mr James Horner, your music will never be forgotten!
This Star Trek music heaven! 🖖🏽
This is the best orchestral concert of Star Trek music I've heard. My new background music when I play Star Trek Online!
That was the most beautiful orchestral version of Inner Light I've ever heard. Amazing.
I could feel the nuanced emotion in every piece. It was tender at just the right moment, and robust when needed; a rollercoaster of precision, musical talent and a conductor who I could feel was as passionate about Star Trek as any life long Trekkie.
Again, this is the SUPERLATIVE orchestral concert of Star Trek music. Bravo!
*Very* well said my friend!

that movie deserved so much better, by far and away the best of the kelvin movies
These composers were / are absolute genious. Amazing concert, the conductor is wonderful. Sublime.
I am a nerd and proud of it. Tons of memories, many scientists, engineers, and great minds were awakened by the series. Thank you dor the upload, LIve long and prosper and have all your systems working within established parameters. Resistance is futile.
I need to go to this symphony before I die. So awesome. Even without video, you can feel you are in the future.
The themes and music exemplifies the heart and soul of the Star Trek franchise, as stirring, timeless and immortal as the many series and movies themselves. This was also within a couple years of my 50th. I remember our humble family huddled around our TV, on edge for this weeks unspeakable adventure. Thanks Gene, Kirk, Spock, Picard, Data...for giving us the ride of our lives....May it never, never, end....
The score for Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan is one of the best soundtracks for a movie ever. And also, one of the best sci-fi sequels ever produced for the big screen. ❤
Agree completely.
Mostly this is a great performance, but they really misinterpreted the Wrath of Khan title theme. The original soundtrack recording was a slightly botched rush job, but they really doubled down on that rushed, scrambling out of time feeling, and added a couple new poor decisions of their own.
The main melody from the First Contact theme, the one that starts around 1:04:55, is one of the most beautifully unfolding melodies I've ever heard. When it crescendos with the cymbal crash, no matter how many times I've heard it, I still get goosebumps. Jerry Goldsmith was such an amazing musician!
Also, I'm so glad that they arranged a suite from "The Inner Light" Next Generation episode. In addition to being an excellent arrangement of that music, it reminds me in part why that is one of my favorite Next Generation episodes. Speaking of goosebumps, when Picard says "oh, it's me, I'm the someone" at the end of that episode... such a powerful moment. One of Patrick Stewart's best performances in my opinion.
And his response to opening the box and finding the flute just kills me every time!
Reduced me to tears every time I hear it, without fail. Don’t know why..❤
Indeed the most grate sound !
dude, i walked down the aisle at my wedding to the vitamin string quartet version of the first contact theme. no one there really knew where it was from, so it was me and my wife's little secret. my cousin joked later on that she was surprised i didnt try and sneak any star trek references into the entire wedding. little did she know :)
The GNP Crescendo 'best of star trek' CD did such a good job with the Ressikan flute suite, I was surprised to see the thing show up here but it's neat that it's been used in other places.
It is truly amazing and the Conductor conductor Chuhei Iwasaki MUST be congratulated...
God these people are SO TALENTED. Just on another Level!!! THANK YOU!! ALOHA!!! for putting a smile on my face. Music the Universal Language.
I freakin' love this concert. I think I watch/listen to it at least once a month. I would so love to attend a Trek music concert.
Yeah.. I just checked their website. .not a mention of star trek. Such an awesome concert I'd love to see.
This is absolutely sublime. Pretty much perfect recreation of the sound track. I think the dislikes on this video are because it ends.
Like many I have been watching since the original tv series. At the 10 second mark the goosebumps came and then the floodgates opened. Wow, you just don't realize how much this music has impacted you over the years until you sit and listen to this. I find it interesting that I immediately knew each song...
that into the darkness - end title one always gives me goosebumps
I listen to this occasionally. Never gets old and the 90 min just whizzes by. Thank you for all the musical talents behind this! And the visuals were interesting too.
The "Night on the Yorktown" is such a wonderful piece of music. It brings tears to my eyes every time I listen it.
Matteo Bonvicino I think so
Yeah, the Jar Jar Abrams / Bad Reeboot Trek movies might be utter forgettable drek, but at least they did have some great music. Still glad they aren't making any more though.
So much hope and optimism with just enough callbacks to Trek scores over the decades.
when i first saw yorktown starbase and heard the music to it in the cinema, i couldn't stop myself from weeping .. the yorktown track is now going to be played at my cremation when my coffin conveys into the furnace (interesting fact - they called it yorktown because when roddenberry first conceived trek, he was going to call the ship uss yorktown - but of course that changed to enterprise)
But how could the screenwriters be so dumb as to name a space station "Yorktown" when the term has always been used for a capital ship just as "Enterprise," "Lexington," or "Saratoga" has been?!! Get a clue people!
Them dudes spinning those thingies during the music composed by James Horner (Star Trek II & III) are living their best life here lol
Best video on UA-cam.
What I really like in the Star Trek music are the wind instruments. It shivers down your spine...
I love the French horns too. I always get chills from the First Contact theme.
Strings are the best.
@@mintydog06 Yes yes yes! The French Horns! Especially on James Horner's soundtracks like Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock.
Good camera work showing the orchestra as well (lots of shots of First Violin especially).
@@mintydog06 Horns, strings and timpani - there's not much more you need for the DS9 and Yoager themes. Ok, some flutes and clash cymbals.
This was an amazing concert. The quality was right up there with the London Symphony Orchestra. Love that conductor.
Thank You - - - - - Bringing back very fond memories of watching Trek with my father who passed away more than 20 years ago. Thanks :)
I think this is the best performance of Voyagers’ theme tune I’ve heard an orchestra perform, outside of the recording for the actual show.
I prefer this recording to the original, the supporting instruments can be heard more clearly.
Have you heard L'Orchestra Cinématique's version of the Voyager theme?
It's different but also very good.
Ein wahres Feuerwerk an Präzision, Perfektion und spielerischem Können. Ich habe selten so ein perfekt abgestimmtes Orchester gehört. WELTKLASSE!!!
Voyager theme is on another level imho
Why? Much more simple chords progression...
Another lever bro!
Compared to ST:TMP or Wrath of Khan? Those two scores were the epitome of Star Trek while being completely different from each other and the Original Series.
