One of the highlights of my experience working on the Star Trek films has been the opportunity to collaborate with Michael Giacchino. His beautiful, powerful, inspired musical scores elevate, transform and enrich every scene or sequence in these two films. While the music as heard on the original soundtracks is thrilling, experiencing these scores performed live, as I was lucky to, during the recording sessions, is profound. The wonder of hearing–and watching–a full orchestra bring these scores to life is something I will never forget. I am so happy that you get to experience this, too. I could not be more grateful to Michael, to all the brilliant musicians who originally brought these scores to life, and to those equally astounding artists playing here, live, tonight.
