I was there that night, and enjoyed the performance. Never would I have guessed that I would keep coming back to this music and this theme so much in later life!
Sorry but this would have been so much better if that 9,999 pipe organ was used for some of it. The Albert Hall Organ is like a Galaxy-class of organs. She we have sounded awesome among all this.
Okay, so you know the Next Generation theme music was taken from a piece of score in one of the movies? I'm pretty sure that the melody that Giacchino is also a phrase from one of the scores, but for the life of me, I can't remember which one! Can anyone please help?!...
4:07 onwards has to be my absolute favourite part. Michael Giacchino has done a magnificant job. I put his compositions up there with the original score by Alexander Courage, then that by James Horner and Cliff Eideleman - Eidelman's excellent composition for ST VI is excellent, and far too overlooked, in my opinion.
@@E3ECO Thank you. I am glad you, too, love the music by Giacchino, and am glad to be of help getting to the truly brilliant section of his brilliant composition. Best wishes 🖖from Australia!
Although I LOVE Voyager and DS9 themes, this is by far the best piece of Star Trek music by Maestro Michael Giacchino, after the original series (A. Courage) P.S. At 6:53, the Vulcan greeting at the end by Mr. Lockhart is equally fantastic ;)
Whenever I listen this incredible soundtrack, first reaction is to rewatch the movie for maybe 20+ times. And totally agree with you. Then I listen to James Horner Wrath of Kahn. And repeat. 😂. Voyager and Deep Space 9 are my favourites themes also. But then when you listen to Picard you forget your old love ones. Or generations with that chorus. I guess most of the star trek music is awesome. Sorry for the long comment. My two passions together. Star Trek and music. LLAP. 🖖
In music we call It and arrangement. Is another version of the song, made for THIS orchestra, and not the original orchestra. Maybe is longer or shorter, and a lot of things changed, but the songs is still "the same"
Then why does it sound 'inferior'? Yes, I'm aware musical taste is subjective and so forth. My point is, it is NOT the same, even if the score is the same.
"Absolutely brilliant" is way too hyperbolic. His ST theme is very nice, but the soundtracks overall are far from what Goldsmith or Horner did in TMP, Khan or Spock films.
@@commonsensenow8425 Right?! He's one of the best working mainstream today....with a lot of things, I think that because people grew up with the other music, they have a justified bias when it comes to newer music attached to those same franchises
