Yeah, basically they took the intro Dennis McCarthy wrote for TNG, and replaces his theme with the TMP theme

OMG my brain hates it! I mean objectively i know it sounds great, but it's so wrong from what my brain expects that it makes me bleah!
Watching that video it seems to me that there's something different in the mix that is part of what I'm talking about. I'm young enough to have seen TNG before TMP and I remember noticing this when I first watched TMP and heard the same theme. The sort of sheen that I'm talking about is more present in the TNG theme. I think the violins are EQd higher and are louder in the mix (??)
I believe it's a re-arrangement and re-recording, yeah.
Re-arranged for a smaller orchestra, and more energetic (most noticeable in the percussion)
Ha ... yea I remembered after forgetting ... thanks!
