Venus in Star Trek ?
Sat, Feb 23 2013, 10:34AM
I've been listening to 'The Planets' by Holst this week and realised that some musical phrases in Venus sounded like the motif from the theme of Star Trek (original series). I've listened to Venus many times before but not made the connection until now. Have a listen to the following Youtube clip at 3:49, 4:09, 4:29 and 4:40 and see if you hear Star Trek too : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1f8HjIkU3M

This song was supposed to be the original inspiration...

...and the very first notes of Mahler's 1st symphony...
Didn't know that, very interesting, thank you. I prefer the Star Trek version!
And the Mahler is uncanny, good stuff.
