STAR TREK CONCERT: Prague Music Festival

A Review of the STAR TREK CONCERT at Dvorak's Hall, Rudolfinum Prague on November 2, 2016

The Star Trek Concert was a musical celebration of the iconic sci-fi franchise that has captivated generations of fans. The concert by a National Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Chuhei Iwasaki, performing selections from the original series, the movies, and the recent reboot. The music was accompanied by stunning visuals from the Star Trek universe, projected on a large screen above the stage. The concert was a tribute to the legacy of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek, and his vision of a hopeful and diverse future.

The concert opened with the fanfare from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, followed by the main theme from Star Trek: The Original Series. The orchestra then played a medley of themes from the various Star Trek TV shows, including The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise. The audience cheered as they recognized their favorite characters and moments from the screen. The concert also featured music from the Star Trek movies, such as The Wrath of Khan, The Search for Spock, The Voyage Home, The Undiscovered Country, First Contact, and Beyond. The orchestra captured the emotion and excitement of the films, from the epic battles to the touching friendships.

The highlight of the concert was the music from the new Star Trek trilogy, composed by Michael Giacchino. The orchestra performed suites from Star Trek (2009), Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), and Star Trek Beyond (2016), showcasing Giacchino's rich and dynamic score. The music was enhanced by clips from the movies, featuring the new cast of Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, John Cho, Anton Yelchin, and Idris Elba. The audience applauded and cheered as they watched the adventures of the USS Enterprise crew on their five-year mission.

The concert ended with a standing ovation from the audience, who were thrilled by the musical journey through the Star Trek universe. The orchestra played an encore of the main theme from Star Trek: The Original Series, as a tribute to Leonard Nimoy and Anton Yelchin, who passed away in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The concert was a memorable experience for any Star Trek fan, and a testament to the enduring appeal of Gene Roddenberry's creation.
