It's silly but I will have this played on my funeral. Onto the next great adventure 😁😎😺😁
You are not alone.
The ST:TOS theme was the recessional music at a friend's funeral in 2015; it was deeply moving, and I often think I should arrange for the same (with the Voyager theme for the prelude).
Simply stated: A absolutely marvelous experience. Thnk you all.
The fact that you can get a full orchestra sound out of 21 musicians is astonishing! BRAVO!
First Contact is goosebump inducing.
With 20 musicians, they sound better than most of the scores recorded today. Brilliant arrangement and performance.
I watched Star Trek when I was a kid in the 60's and I've listened to this music ever since. These wonderfully talented musicians brought that music, the music that I love so much, to life. Their performance was simply wonderful! My thanks to everyone!
I keep listening to this over, and over again, and it is bringing tears of joy to my eyes, it fills my heart, and it lifts my spirit.
I don't know how you made this sound so good doing it remotely, but kudos to every single one of you! I can't even master the triangle, so I have the upmost respect for you all.
More cowbell =P Couldn't resist =) Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing
Alot.of.practise I'd say. But they did it so well.
Talent. And editing. Just keeping it real.😅
Excellent sound quality. This combination of musical and technical skills...Lt Uhura would be proud!
Your cover of the First Contact theme made me weep openly while riding a bus... if only I'd been blasting it at full volume from a jam box....
You’re the guy in “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home”!!! 🤣
Dang Voyage home / Picard S2 references
This is PERFECT that yall show whose playing and whose not. Thats beautiful!
Love the arrangment of first contact.
Fabulous thing to listen to while making Trekkie crafts! 🖖🏻
This looks even better on my 75" screen! Wonderful!
all this remotely? hats off to everyone involved!
Bravo to everyone who contributed to this work; you should all be justly and fully proud of the results. You brought tears to this old trekkie's eyes! Again, thank you one and all!
I think Star Trek has the most spinoffs. Back in the mid/late '60's, I don't think they knew what a legacy Star Trek would have.
Wow! Just wow!
Let's make sure history never forgets the name Enterprise.
I have watched this many times and wish I could keep hitting the like button
This effort was on full impulse power.
Bravo!! Just Bravo!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
THIS! OMG THIS! In my country we have a saying…”this is the absolute dogs bollocks”.
It’s a powerful way of saying something is good in the vernacular.
And it pertains to this video! Most emphatically. I’m sharing the hell out of this where I can.
And very well done, to all who participated.
How!? Incredible. Also the horn during DS9 was the best I have ever heard it done.
Thank you!
omg, i love it!! got tears in my eyes...
Wow!!! Found your Medley just now...AMAZING!!! It shivers down the spine! Must play it on my HIFI next opportunity! So amazing!!! Thank you for this over the top performance!!! Greetings from Germany and stay healthy!
Man.. I had goosebumps throughout the whole thing... Great job.
Wow just wow! You all are truly amazing. bless you all!
I love how you segwayed from startrek to the motion picture beautifully done
I LOVE that you used the extended "end credits" version of the TOS theme, with the more complex melody and all that. Really wonderful job!
I love it. Bring back so many memories.
it's just amazing.
Wow I didn't expect that! how the hell did you do it? And missing a full horn , brass and tuba section too. The horn was particularly good, full rich sound like a full section. It was like I was in the movies. Really blew me away. Wonderful. Terrific arrangement.
Edit / additional comments: I have watched this 15x and everytime I am blown away as I appreciate more and more the talent of everyone involved. The Video work was monumental and made the single instruments sound like a full section. The violins with their high speed fingers was brilliant, gorgeous. Trumpet was a standout. The horn was from Hollywood for sure, gorgeous tone like the best ever, Trombone had that deep raspy bass. Flute was wonderful - I mean, I could go on and on as I am drawn to this piece like a magnet. The composer / arranger did an excellent job - made it work. What can I say?
You guys should be on America's got talent - and take first place without question.
excellent job ladies and gentlemen!
I cannot imagine how difficult it was to make all this happen, but I am so grateful to you all. This brought tears to my eyes, not jsut because it was so beautiful, but also because in these troubled times when we have had to distance ourselves form once another, I am so moved by the desire to create art that embodies the ethos of Star Trek, that we humans are capable of nobility and grace, even when things are at their worst. And lastly as someone who watched Star Trek The Original Series as a kid on NBC from 1966-1969, it fills my heart that Gene Roddenberry's philosophy and artistry is being taken up by generations who were not even born when all this started. Again, thank you. Live long and proper!
Absolutely STUNNING!!!!! Truly out-of-this-world!!!! All of the members of this wonderful group need to be strongly applauded!!! Well done!!!! Thank you so much!
What an absolutely beautiful arrangement and performance. As for what else you could have added, definitely Voyager. I also like Michael Giacchino’s theme for the Kelvin timeline movies.
For me, nothing tops James Horner’s theme for Wrath of Khan - it is sweeping, grand and moving, and it has the best integration of Alexander Courage’s original theme. You all played it magnificently.
Wow! Brilliant!! Loved this! Thanks so much for all your efforts!
I just came from giving up listening to the 'Star Trek Day' offering and saw your video, so thought would listen, with no high hopes, but you (collective-ly) were fantastic, you saved my evening, and so nice to hear a new arrangement. and that little incidental piece, brilliant, the technical difficulties involved..the only thing missing was the applause, I honestly was smiling, do another, make it so :-D
Amazing! And very, very beautiful! Thank you for your amazing talent!
Es un privilegio escuchar esta versión musical de la más mítica serie, jamás igualada,viva Star Trek.
As sick as I am, your conducting of the orchestra of Star Trek made me feel much better! Bravo!!!
!Bravo, bravo, bravo!.
Wow. Bravo. Thanks for the new
Insight into my favorite show.
Alles Top Ich bin begeistert Luciano
Almost a decade ago, my girlfriend took me to Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses. When the theme of the "Dark World" came on, I couldn't help but squeal towards her "They're doing it, they're doing it!!!", but very quietly.
While I wished it had Voyager and other themes, gosh. This is an AMAZING accomplishment. Proof that when humanity has its back against the wall, it shines through.
bravo, bravo, bravo 👏👏👏
This is Emotional and Amazing ... thank you to each and everyone of you... from a long time Trekkie from when it started ... this has Truly made me cry ... xx ..
*We are ready , Captain*
I had to replay that over and over again!!! I loved it that much,, good job you guys,,,.,..,.,.kent
I loved it. Very original.
8:34 just amazing...one of the best
Would love to have heard Voyager in there, and Picard..!
My first thought was, ah... movie medly... then DS9 showed up so I expected TNG and Voyager and perhaps Enterprise. While the performaces were amazing, the selection has be baffled.
But I’m sure you’re all grateful for all the hard work that went into all this. Wasn’t it just amazing.
Voyager is my favorite theme, so I always want it, but every measure of this was an utter joy. 🥰
Facinating.
Excelente!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏.
Gracias por éste regalo !!!!
Bravo more please
I am crying,thx very much.
Absolutely beautifully done. Outstanding job by all. Literal goosebumps during most of this but really during First Contact theme. Bravo to you all!
Say what you will about TikTok, but that app has been a gift for collaborators during the pandemic
Deep Space Nine theme is so 90s I love it!
Großartig!!!
I heard the applause in my head at the end until I realized I wasn't hearing it
BRILLIANT!
I love the music from the Star Trek series and movies. This is the best STAR TREK Medley ever..... live long and prosper
Wow!! 😊 Thanks a lot!! you are wonderful.
this was Excellent!! I remember going to the theater for each one of the movies and when spock died at the end of II there were people balling hard. the music brings back so many memories
Where I live. we spell it "bawling", but I know what you meant. The first time I saw that scene...omg, I was absolutely demolished...I'm glad I was with a close friend who understood, and whom I could trust not to rat me out to our boss for crying at a movie.
Beautiful
Missed Voyager, their theme won an actual Emmy.
Wie geht das ein virtuelles Orcestra und dann so klar
Outstanding arrangements - Bravo!
Gorgeous!
A great thanks un grand merci
I love this so much
You even included Fred Steiner! Thank you! It almost makes up for leaving off Voyager. Also thank you for the Leonard Rosenman love!
It is GREAT!!!!!! BRAVo!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love your versions of the DS9 and First Contact themes!
Well done. Thank you.
Bravo,Bravissimo!
Beautiful Music! :-)
WOW!

Wow, this video is soooo well done! 😀
It must have been a huge, complex, juggling project to coordinate so many musicians, and then edit all the individual videos into this splendid combined video.
I wish everyone a happy and productive January of 2023, as we step into The New Year! 😀
.
Amazing, thank you so much!!!!
This is pretty amazing!
Fantastic!
This is great! At the same time, I found myself wanting to hear bad acoustics, to make it sound as real as possible, like a genuine battle against the odds, a unique sound you cannot hear in a concert hall. Still loved it though!
I enjoyed that so much! The First Contact theme 🤩
I am in awe❤️
Bravissimi .My heart Thanks You 😊
Love it.
Bravo!
You made my day
😍❤️❤️❤️ wonderful music
You all "FANTASTIC " would like to see more Star Trek. Thanks 😊
