One of the most successful franchises in both film and television history continues to renew and reinvent itself to this day. The world of STAR TREK has been through 35 years of metamorphoses. We’ve seen generations come and go … Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy … Captain Picard, Ryker and Data … Commander Sisko and Captain Janeway. We’ve seen the Enterprise, Deep Space Nine and the Voyager … the Klingons, the Romulans, the Cardassians and the Borg … they are all here!
The world of STAR TREK is as famous for its composers and great music as it is for its captains, villains and starships. Jerry Goldsmith has been the musical captain of the STAR TREK universe for some twenty years now. STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE, THE FINAL FRONTIER, FIRST CONTACT, INSURRECTION and VOYAGER all represent Goldsmith at his best. James Horner’s famous theme from THE WRATH OF KHAN is here.
No STAR TREK compilation could be complete without the famous theme from the classic original television series by Alexander Courage. In celebration of the completion of Paramount’s issue of all nine STAR TREK motion pictures on DVD and its continuing series of STAR TREK television episode DVDs, we have prepared this look back over 20 years of STAR TREK lore. All music is newly recorded in spectacular digital sound and features Glasgow’s Royal Scottish National Orchestra, London’s Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and America’s Seattle Symphony Orchestra. The performances are conducted by Jerry Goldsmith, Cliff Eidelman, Fred Steiner and Frederic Talgorn. It’s an international, all-star tribute to Gene Roddenberry’s classic science fiction masterpiece.
