SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:54 Min.

In 1991, composer-conductor Cliff Eidelman scored Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, including this closing credits theme. In 1996, Erich Kunzel & the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra covered this track for the Symphonic Star Trek instrumental album.

REVIEW:

Overshadowed by earlier Star Trek themes by James Horner and Jerry Goldsmith, this Star Trek VI finale deserves a chance at re-discovery (pardon the expression). Perfectly recapturing Cliff Eidelman’s mix of intergalactic suspense with a sinister edge and the right tinge of wistfulness, the cover performance by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra is a gem. This theme is certainly recommended for Star Trek fans and sci-fi playlist enthusiasts.
