Alexander Courage may have given the sprawling <I>Star Trek</I> franchise its signature musical fanfare, but for two decades it's been composer Jerry Goldsmith who's periodically infused the film and TV cycles with their crucial musical heart and soul or, as in the case of this rousing masterwork, their fire and fury. Giving nearly free reign to his notably modernist muse, the veteran has turned in a dark and driving orchestral maelstrom that's relieved only by its edgy, occasionally synth-burnished passages of alien intrigue and mounting suspense. Underpinned by bracing blasts of massive brass worthy of Bernard Herrmann and powered by Goldsmith's passionate sense of drama and mastery of orchestral color and dynamics, it's a score that not only ranks among the best of the imposing <I>Trek</I> musical catalog, but certainly one of the composer's most accomplished sci-fi scores of the last 20 years. <I>--Jerry McCulley</I>
Customer Reviews:
Great Soundtrack.......2007-04-03
I absolutely love the soundtrack. I love Star Trek and it is a good soundtrack to have.
Darker and haunting.......2006-05-07
This was Jerry Goldsmith's last soundtrack before he passed away.
It's a shame, he brought Star Trek to life through music. All us Trekkers will remember him.
I think he did a marvelous job of making the atmosphere of the soundtrack darker and more haunting and still retains that "Star Trek sound." There are action sequences like "Lateral Run" and "The Scorpion." There are also some touching pieces reflecting back on Data's herioc sacrifice. "A New Ending" and "A New Friend" are perfect examples of Data's last moments.
I was shocked that the producers didn't put in Data's rendition of Irving Berlin's "Blue Skies!" I never knew Brent Spiner could sing that well............
Listen to this soundtrack and let it take you back to the world of Star Trek.
Good, But It's Mssing Something..........2005-01-28
I loved the movie Star Trek Nemesis and the music was great. I'm glad they have a CD of the music from the film. However, I am APPALLED that the song "Blue Skies" wasn't incorporated into the CD. How could they do that?! To me, the Deanna Troi/ Will Riker Wedding was made a little better by Data singing them "Blue Skies" for his wedding present. But, putting that aside, I would highly recommend this CD
Awesome.......2004-07-29
This album is absolutely awesome. Jerry Goldsmith was an amazing composer, and as one of the last albums he's done, this is amazing.
