TNG Klingon music

[EnriqueH]

I've been rewatching TNG and I'm towards the end of Season 3, but I've been thinking about the Klingon music from earlier in the series.

I want to say it was Season 2, when Riker did his "internship" on the Klingon shop?

What was the name of that Klingon theme?

 

[Christopher]

I don't think there's a name for it besides "Ron Jones's Klingon theme," which he introduced in "Heart of Glory" and which was a pastiche of Jerry Goldsmith's Klingon theme from ST:TMP. The individual cues Jones used it in have distinct names, but I don't think there's a name for just the theme.

 

[EnriqueH]

Yeah, I remember it being a variation of Goldsmith's Klingon theme.

But I can't get the song out of my head, in a good way, and thought I should just download or buy an album with the song.

As far as I know, you'd have to buy the complete Ron Jones Collection box set, which includes just about every note Jones ever wrote for TNG (and even for two Trek computer games).

^^ It's well worth every penny.

Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Ron Jones Project

Most of the collection is also available on iTunes. Look for cues from A Matter of Honor.

Alternatively, for those who can't plunk that much down for the Jones Box or don't want downloads, that episode score was on of the Best of Trek compilations from GNP Records.
