Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 soundtrack arriving July 19
By D. Goodman
Music fans should circle July 19 on their calendar as that’s when the soundtrack for Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 will arrive digitally everywhere.
As regular readers of our Sound of Star Trek series know, music has played an important part in the history of Star Trek from almost day one. The Original Series theme is one of the most iconic pieces of music ever written and the theme from The Next Generation, which was actually from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, isn’t far behind.
The music from Star Trek: Discovery, the latest addition to the franchise, hasn’t disappointed in that category either. Love or hate the show, most will agree that the score by Jeff Russo has been a worthy addition to the musical legacy of the ever-growing Trekverse.
