The Enterprise - Alternate on Violin

Before Jerry Goldsmith made the classic "The Enterprise" theme for Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979), he had an earlier version. It is just as interesting, and you can hear the similarities. For fun, I tried playing this earlier theme on the violin...

It's very beautiful.

On the violin, it kind of sounds like Bartok mixed with Star Trek. Very nice though

Fantastic job there my good trekor. A lot of talent you have.

Good job, Superare1! I have the impression that Goldsmith's score for this movie has moved you very deeply, as it has for me. More power to you, in that case! P.S. Whilst I love music I can't play a note, much to my eternal shame!

There is something about a violin. A crude primitive instrument. Yet in the right hands it can create music that is beyond this world!

Loved it!

Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its 5 year mission to seek out new like, and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before.

Live long and prosper.
