I love how everything is “broken” in this intro, broken shard of space falling to earth, falling through broken borg cubes, broken planets, and finally coming to put a broken Picard back together. And only after Picard is made whole again by space, then you hear the old NG theme. Awesome storytelling in just a couple minutes.
You don't just hear the TNG theme, you also hear his flute and the theme he played. He wasn't made whole by space... more so by addressing something that he never got the chance to. A regret.
@@bdz_4206 I just rewatched that scene after reading your pos. A very powerful scene that stayed true to Picard’s character. I absolutely love the call back to Marta Batanides. The musical score that plays to evoke emotion in this scene as you see in a lot of tv is much needed in this era of Trek storytelling. I hope we see more one on one Picard Rios scenes. Thank you for reminding me about this scene.
Was instantly my favorite opening credits sequence for a Star Trek series. The music is just unbelievable. And the visuals make more sense as the season goes along.
Jeff Russo did such an amazing job for this theme, and using the flutes to allude back to "The Inner Light", the behind the scenes clip of Russo talking about the choices he made for how to use each of the instruments to convey what he wanted people to feel and be reminded of, just so much effort and work put into this! Amazing!
This is almost a note for note recreation of a scene from the inner light too but made into a theme and it's just so majestic and gorgeous and star trek.
It's crazy how the composer remembered "The Inner Light" and the showrunners didn't. After all, "Picard has never been a parent" according to Alex "I'm cool because I just learned the f-word" Kurtzman
I think it's more a look at the past with a view of what is to come rather than the events of season 1. But that's what makes it good: it's symbols that allow for more than one interpretation.
Total CRAP! The opening spends more time focusing on the PRODUCERS and MAKE UP ARTISTS than the actual STARS! Jesus. I feel for kids today thining that this crap is Star Trek. It has the name. Nothing more. Go ask any trek fan.... this is trek... and this is a true opening int he trek style.. THANK YOU SO MUCH SETH MACFARLANE czcams.com/video/eyBbcw19UpU/video.html
Here's something eerie for you - the lovely melodic theme makes its appearance in the Hugo-award winning episode 'The Inner Light' where the man that Picard is living the life of's son is heard playing the melody for the first time. It caught my breath, and was very moving to know that this was its origin.
It really is the case, isn't it? After watching Picard, I realised how important he was to TNG. TNG was great. But without Picard, it'd just be another Trek show.
It really is beautiful. First time I heard/watched this, I cranked my surround sound up and soaked it in. And then the tear came. We missed you, Admiral Picard. Welcome back.
I really like the imagery. The story behind the title theme. I just listened to all the other title themes. This Picard one is nice but Voyager, TNG and DS9 themes are iconic.
Okay..I listened more attentivly...and guess what I found out? The theme is related to the TNG theme in a closer way then just a few notes of it playing at the end. What actually happens from a compositional point of view is that the theme is basically constructed around slow variations (some notes added, substracted, keys changed etc) of one the TNG themes secondary musical motifs. Listen closely to the motif playing here Star Trek: The Next Generation theme (HQ) 1:18 to about 1:21 or 1:22 and the to the ST: Picard Theme. Do you hear how its basically almost the TNG motif beeing played, toyed with, varied in different ways?
I don't think its based on TNG themes, listen too Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Enterprise. I hear more elements of this in the Picard theme, those slow variations you speak of.
I have a feeling this will be a huge success. I already love it and it's only an hour into the series. I grew up with TNG, sorry not an "original Trekkie", but to see this brought a lot of nostalgia for me. I can't wait to see more
Yeah TNG was my favouriteto I can definitel ysee myself getting it later on DVD as I don' thav eaccess to that channel but I don't thin kPartick Stewart woul dhave agreed to return if he wasn't up to the challenge of delivering a good comeback.
Yeah I grew up with TNG, DS9, Voyager, and Enterprise. So not an original Trekkie either but I think they may have knock Picard out of the park so far.
I love it. Why? Picard is more than 75 years old. He is an "old" man who left Starfleet and the galaxy become darker after 20 years later. Under this circumstances this music is very great and it fits together.
@@beepthemeep12 Darn it you beat me to it!!! (Although people should already know that Picard is 95 since it was referenced by Altan Inigo Soong in Et in Arcadia Ego part 2).
His ongoing mission: to understand this new lifeform. To see seek out answers hidden on strange and unknown systems. To boldly go where no one dares to go anymore.
@@TyrionLannister83 Canadians, who don't use VPN and buy CBS AA also have to wait till 9pm. However, it's included in some of our cable packages (mine, for example.) so I can't complain.
The whole thing seems related. That's exactly what I was coming here to say! You beat me. Now open the curtains... And play 'The Motion Picture' Credits and jam that music!
Someone’s just pointed out on another video that the strings that come in with what is kind of the central motif is what Batai (Picard’s ‘son’ in TNG 5x25 “The Inner Light”) plays during that episode. The scene is about 30 minutes into the episode.
I love these music very much. In this time where all over the world is crashing corona, takes these music and the season of picard all trouble for a few Moments away. Jon-Luc we love you...
I love it! This new Star Trek is not about a rehash of zooming through space on the bridge of the mightiest ship in starfleet; it's grounded in a far more personal perspective. This music reflects that. I for one am grateful for a Star Trek that acknowledges the sea change away from the sometimes naive optimism of the past and toward the reality of a world that can be and is still sometimes troubled in spite of all the impressive advancements in science and technology (or even because of it), where we have to grapple with the realization that we ourselves may not necessarily be the selfless champions of freedom and equality that we like to believe.
I love how quiet and subdued the music 🎵 is, and how it works with the visuals so well. It just tells us lots about the man Picard is, a honourable man who left the once-idealistic Starfleet behind for betraying its core values, the spirit that made him join in the first place. He may be older and more cynical, but that noble flame 🔥 that made us appreciate the man is far from dying down. In fact, it just makes the character of Jean-Luc Picard more pronounced.
Say what you will about the show, and there’s a lot to say, but this intro is just perfect for Picard. Especially since it uses his son’s music from _The Inner Light_ .
Admittingly, I didn't like the first season of Picard a whole lot, but man, this is a beautiful intro, both in visuals and music. I hope they step it up even more in season two.
I liked it at first.. The ragtag crew on the small ship on the run for federation. And i always loved the Romulans so seeing them back scheming was great. But it fell apart and was a bit dissapointed.
Picard's "son" in the TNG episode "Inner Light" played the main cord of this theme in that episode 28 years ago. The connection to the best TNG episode is appreciated.
Gyor Gyor I have to agree with Martin. Insurrection is towards the bottom of my list, but above Star Trek 5 and Nemesis. It plays more like an extended TNG episode, which is fine. It just didn’t feel big enough for a movie to me.
The first season was not memorable, but this opening theme music is so in Jean-Luc Picard's character. With beautiful science fiction themes that reflect the elegance of Picard's history as an explorer, it's quite a lovely piece of music.
The enormous, awesome, complex mosaic which is Picard, a man who has lived a life so extraordinary. Symbolized and noted, in images and music. Masterpiece.
The music is haunting and the cast are perfect - suggests the sadness and pride of looking back at one's own life. The mistakes and (hopefully) the lessons. What was done and what should have been done --- and Patrick Stewart plays to the music sweetly. The cast play to this theme too which gives an ethereal quality - carry on struggling for good and death will be the next awfully big adventure. Awesome.
I got roku and started binging star trek next Gen. Then his came out. It was a sign lol. I've fallen in love with star trek universe. Long live Captain Picard.
Love this opening credits song it has warmth with a little bit of dark thrown in so it balances itself quite well in this. Also the great star trek theme hinted at the end. I was afraid it would fall flat but it works so well
thedavecorp yep. it’s during the scene where a very old Kamin (Picard) is looking through his telescope and talking to his wife. his son starts to play this melody in the background
I love that. It's like TNG has been promoted to the effective start of the franchise. Just as VI and Generations closed out the original series adventures, Picard is clearly designed as a farewell to the TNG/DS9/VOY era.
This Intro is so Peaceful. Tng intro was like " this is going to be a great adventure" it was Epic. But now this intro is very reassuring. Like Picards story will come to an end now.
Jeff Russo can't write a title theme to save his life. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited to watch the show, and I think it'll be good. I think this is a very unique main title sequence, but I miss the days when a Star Trek show had a memorable theme that you could hum. This music is pretty, but not memorable
Agreed. Even "enterprise" had a theme that was memorable regardless of whether it was good. This feels more like the music that plays while you wait in the lobby for an appointment.
The figure played by the piccolo at the beginning of the piece (and used a few times in the episode itself) reminds me of similar figures that Goldsmith used in the TNG films. (You can hear it quite well at the beginning of Nemesis, just as the "Paramount Pictures presents" title is about to fade in. I'm hoping that's on purpose.
i saw a video on youtube who was making fun of how the intro credits just has a ton of producers. Holy shit they weren't kidding. There's freaken NINETEEN producers for this one show. LOL!
this theme is the same theme from the episode of tng where picard lives that other life and has a son and a wife and grows old. its the theme his son played on his instrument that picard later learns to play himself
Sounds like the next progression being pieces of the Star Trek themes from Enterprise to TNG forming its own theme. I'm okay with it based on the timeline.
There are a lot of complaints about the Discovery and Picard opening themes. The opening TOS had bongos that reflected the era. The 80s and 90s saw a lot of tv shows having big orchestra themes, not just trek. But these days, those play a little dated. This is more on par with Westworld or True Detective, or The Expanse. it’s modern. And honestly, I’d rather them save classic cues for big moments in the show itself. If you watched the clip from starfleet HQ from next weeks episode, they play TNG themes front and center while he walks in the building and sees the Galaxy Class hologram/model.
@@BaskuraCorp I watched an interview from Jeff Russo, he said he wrote a big grand theme for Picard, but it didn't fit, he said that because this show is focused on one man that the score needed to be small, and because it's Picard it needed to be relaxing to capture his personality
The title sequence of Picard told of what becomes of Picard at the end of Season 1 if you paid attention to the pieces of him being put back together hint an Android body
I just found out today that this tune is based off of the folk melody that Picard learns to play while he's Kamin in the TNG episode, "The Inner Light." I can sort of hear it. Its a loose interpretation.
It's like spending time with a friend you haven't seen in 18 years!
It feels so, yes
Shit friend then.

It's not "BASED UPON 'Star Trek'"..., "BASED UPON 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'".

I love that. It's like TNG has been promoted to the effective start of the franchise. Just as VI and Generations closed out the original series adventures, Picard is clearly designed as a farewell to the TNG/DS9/VOY era.
But it’s based on Star Trek
"Star Trek: The Next Generation" is based on "Star Trek," so this IS based on "Star Trek."
So is TNG not Star Trek then? Because I'm pretty sure it is Star Trek so it is based on Star Trek, or at least, a version of Star Trek.
Ah yes, the sequence that made you think you were not about to watch a gritty, dark and violent show with F-bombs and shit

Finn Madej Very well said. I really think this is a beautiful score and that it will be a grower. It sounds like wisdom, it sounds like Picard.
@@BaskuraCorp I watched an interview from Jeff Russo, he said he wrote a big grand theme for Picard, but it didn't fit, he said that because this show is focused on one man that the score needed to be small, and because it's Picard it needed to be relaxing to capture his personality
Star trek picard is a great show
It has a high production value and looks pretty good
The title sequence of Picard told of what becomes of Picard at the end of Season 1 if you paid attention to the pieces of him being put back together hint an Android body
I just found out today that this tune is based off of the folk melody that Picard learns to play while he's Kamin in the TNG episode, "The Inner Light." I can sort of hear it. Its a loose interpretation.
