Star Trek: The Ultimate Voyage logo.

Star Trek: The Ultimate Voyage[1] is a multimedia concert experience featuring music and video footage from Star Trek motion pictures, television series, and video games in honor of franchise's 50th anniversary.[2][3][4] The initial concert tour from 2015 to 2016 performed in 100 cities in North America and Europe and generally received positive reviews.[5][6][7] The concerts series was produced by CineConcerts, a production company specializing in live music experiences performed with visual media.

2015 - 2016 Tour

The concert toured through the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States from November 1, 2015 to October 29, 2016.[8] All performances were performed by The Czech National Symphony. Producer and CineConcerts Founder Justin Freer was the main conductor and musical director of the tour while Nicholas Buc and John Jesensky were guest conductors. Composers Ron Jones & Jay Chattaway appeared at the world premiere performance on November 1st, 2015 at Royal Albert Hall in London[9].

One notable performance was in Los Angeles at the Pantages Theater April 1-2, 2016, which featured original composers Dennis McCarthy, Jay Chattaway, and Mark McKenzie as guest conductors. The late Nichelle Nichols was also in attendance.[10][11][12]

Concept & Creation

The concert features music from the first 50 years of Star Trek and does not include music from any franchise installments, film or television, post 2005. Writer & producer Brady Beaubien described the genesis of the concert was, “To create an experience as a fan and for fans that celebrated the franchise in a way that people may not have seen before.”[13]

Jerry Goldsmith composed the score for Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979). Having been Gene Roddenberry's initial choice to compose the original Star Trek pilot "The Cage" yet being unable to do so due to scheduling conflicts, Goldsmith was the first pick of both Paramount Pictures and director Robert Wise to compose a score for The Motion Picture.[14]

His score for The Motion Picture earned him Academy Award and Golden Globe Award nominations, and was one of the AFI's 250 nominees for the top twenty-five American film scores. Goldsmith would later compose the scores for Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) (which included a revised arrangement of the theme from The Motion Picture), Star Trek: First Contact (1996), Star Trek: Insurrection (1998), and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002), as well as the theme to the television series Star Trek: Voyager in 1995. In addition, his theme for The Motion Picture, as arranged by Dennis McCarthy, was reused as the theme for Star Trek: The Next Generation in 1987.

Producer and Head Conductor Justin Freer studied under Goldsmith before his passing in 2004[15].  As Goldsmith’s contributions to the Star Trek franchise over the years were notable, including creating the musical identity for the Klingon race[16], the concert experience features much of his music.

Freer has stated that, due to his musical ability showcased in The Next Generation episode “The Inner Light,” his favorite captain is Jean-Luc Picard[17].
