ON THE MOVIE SOUNDTRACK (from Wikipedia)



The score for Star Trek: The Motion Picture was written by Jerry Goldsmith, who would later



compose the scores Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek:



Insurrection, and Star Trek Nemesis, as well as the themes to the television series Star Trek:



The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager. Gene Roddenberry had originally wanted Goldsmith to



score Star Trek's pilot episode, "The Cage", but the composer was unavailable. When Wise signed



on to direct, Paramount asked the director if he had any objection to using Goldsmith. Wise, who



had worked with the composer for The Sand Pebbles, replied "Hell, no. He's great!" Wise would



later consider his work with Goldsmith one of the very best relationships he ever had with a



composer.



For Star Trek, Goldsmith was charged with depicting a universe with his music, and so it is



extremely expansive. Goldsmith's initial main theme was not well-received by the filmmakers



(director Robert Wise felt "It sounds like sailing ships"). Although somewhat irked by its



rejection, Goldsmith consented to re-work his initial ideas. Star Trek: The Motion Picture is the



only Star Trek film to have a true overture, using "Ilia's Theme" for this music. Star Trek and



The Black Hole would be the only feature films to use an overture from the end of 1979 until the



year 2000 (with the movie Dancer in the Dark). The rush to finish the film impacted the music as



well; Goldsmith finished recording the score only five days before the release.



Much of the recording equipment used to create the movie's intricately complicated sound effects



was, at the time, extremely cutting edge. Among these pieces of equipment was the ADS (Advanced



Digital Synthesizer) 11, manufactured by Pasadena, California custom synthesizer manufacturer Con



Brio, Inc. The movie provided major publicity at the time and was used to advertise the



synthesizer, though no price was given at the time. The film's soundtrack also provided a debut



for the Blaster Beam, an electronic instrument about 12 to 15 feet long and played with an



artillery shell. Jerry Goldsmith used it to create the eerie signature V'Ger sound. Goldsmith



also utilized a large pipe organ, which required the score be recorded at 20th Century Fox (which



had the only scoring stage in Los Angeles equipped with such an organ).



REVIEW (by Bruce Eder, allmusic.com) ON THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION



Issued in 1999 after some considerable delay (and heavily available as a promo before that), this



double-CD set corrects a lot of the mistakes that were made on the original LP and CD releases.



For starters, there are about 20 more minutes of music from the film here -- Columbia Records



obviously wanted to hold the original LP release to one disc, but they still could have gotten



most, if not all, of the extra material on. The additional music isn't anything profound, because



all of the major thematic material was represented on the original LP and its CD equivalent --



it's mostly just more of the Vejur oscillations over dark orchestral chords, but anything that



gets more Jerry Goldsmith music into print is intrinsically OK. Indeed, listening to the full



score here, it is more apparent than ever just how important Goldsmith's score was to the



lethargically paced, deeply troubled film -- almost all of the majesty, excitement, and mystery



that the screen was supposed to present actually resides in the music, and Goldsmith probably



deserved an Academy Award, not just a nomination, for his contribution to this movie.



Additionally, one of the new tracks, "Spock's Arrival," may be the closest that Goldsmith has



ever come to writing serious music in a pure Romantic idiom; this could have been the work of



Rimsky-Korsakov or Stravinsky -- it's that good. And all of the music has been remastered in



state-of-the-art 20-bit sound, so the previously available parts of the score sound deeper and



brighter -- one also gets echoes of his score for Alien amid the sweeping orchestral passages.



The second disc is given over to the reissue of the mid-'70s Inside Star Trek LP, which was a



Columbia release -- it's mostly talk by creator/producer Gene Roddenberry with William Shatner,



Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, and Nichelle Nichols, with some comments by Isaac



Asimov, some theme music, and some sound effects. It won't tell you much that the interviews



accompanying the Sci-Fi Channel's rebroadcast of the uncut original series didn't, but it's handy



to have as an improbable CD re-release.



ON JERRY GOLDSMITH (from Wikipedia)



Goldsmith was born in Los Angeles, California, the son of Tessa (née Rappaport), an artist, and



Morris Goldsmith, a structural engineer. He learned to play the piano at age six. At fourteen, he



studied composition, theory and counterpoint with teachers Jacob Gimpel and Mario Castelnuovo-



Tedesco. Goldsmith attended the University of Southern California, where he attended courses



taught by veteran composer Miklós Rózsa. Goldsmith developed an interest in writing scores for



movies after being inspired by Rózsa.



Goldsmith provided tailor-made scores for many different genres; including war films (The Blue



Max), film noir (Chinatown), action movies (Rambo: First Blood and the first two sequels), erotic



thrillers (Basic Instinct), sports pictures (Rudy), family comedies (The Trouble with Angels),



westerns (Breakheart Pass), comic book adaptations (Supergirl), animated features (The Secret of



NIMH), and science fiction (Total Recall, Alien and five Star Trek films). His ability to write



terrifying music won him his only Academy Award for his violent choral/orchestral score for The



Omen. He also was awarded with Emmys for television scores like the Holocaust drama QB VII, and



the epic Masada, as well as the theme for Star Trek: Voyager.



Goldsmith also composed for The Waltons TV series (including its famous theme), a fanfare for the



Academy Awards presentation show and the score for one of the Disneyland Resort's most popular



attractions, Soarin' Over California. Goldsmith never cared for the term "film composer", as he



also wrote a fair amount of "absolute" music for the concert hall as well (such as "Music For



Orchestra", which was premiered by Leonard Slatkin and the Minnesota Orchestra in 1970).



Goldsmith was a lover of innovation and adaptation, and the use of strange instruments. His score



for Alien for example featured an orchestra augmented by shofar, steel drum and serpent (a 16th



century instrument), while creating further "alien" sounds by filtering string pizzicati through



an echoplex. Many of the instruments in Alien were used in such atypical ways they were virtually



unidentifiable. During the 80s, with the development of more sophisticated synthesizers and



technology such as MIDI, Goldsmith started to abandon acoustical solutions to create unusual



timbres, and relied more and more on digital instruments. He continued to champion the use of



orchestras however (to which, for him, electronics were merely an adjunct). He also remained a



studious researcher of ethnic music, and utilized South American Zampoñas in Under Fire, native



tribal chants in Congo, and interwove a traditional Irish folk melody with African rhythms in The



Ghost and the Darkness. His concept for creation and innovation delighted his fans -- and often



intimidated his peers. Henry Mancini, another film-music composer, once admitted that Goldsmith



"scares the hell out of us."



A list of his most distinguished film scores, most of which were Oscar nominated and all of which



exhibit his dramatic instinct, include Freud, A Patch of Blue, The Blue Max, The Sand Pebbles,



Planet of the Apes, Patton, Papillon, Chinatown, The Wind and the Lion, The Omen, Logan's Run,



Islands in the Stream (acknowledged by Goldsmith as his own personal favorite), The Boys from



Brazil, Capricorn One, Alien, The First Great Train Robbery, Star Trek: The Motion Picture,



Twilight Zone: The Movie, Lionheart, The Russia House, First Blood, Rambo: First Blood Part II,



Rambo III, Total Recall, Medicine Man, Basic Instinct, Hoosiers, The Edge, The 13th Warrior and



The Mummy. Goldsmith's Oscar-nominated score for Under Fire (1983) prominently featured solo



guitar work by Pat Metheny. Of all the scores he wrote, Goldsmith has said that Basic Instinct



was the hardest and most complex, according to a mini-documentary on the special edition DVD.



One of Goldsmith's least-heard scores was for the 1985 Ridley Scott film Legend. Director Scott



had commissioned Goldsmith to write an orchestral score for the movie, but was initially heard



only in European theatres, and replaced with electronic music and pop songs for the American



release due to studio politics (it has since been restored for DVD release).
