This is fantastic. I am an avocational horn player and lifelong Trekkie, and Horner's score for Wrath of Khan is my favorite movie music of all time. This is just, wow.
Well this is a PLEASANT surprise. THANK YOU. I was preparing myself for something much less well done. This was fantastic. James Horner was a genius, I don't care what anybody says. RIP EDIT: After watching the SEVERAL times, I am truly impressed. What great job of playing the horns AND the video editing/audio mixing. The closing of this movie the first time I saw it was VERY rough for me. My childhood hero was just killed, and the word on the street was this is the last of Star Trek. ALL I could think of what a rotten way to close the franchise. The next movie wasn't a lot better in that respect in that the ship died. I ALMOST swore off Trek at time.
A big reason we have so VERY much French horn on soundtracks for TV and movies is Vince DeRosa who was shown in the credits. He wasn't just another Los Angeles studio musician on horn. He was THE musician. He was so good, that the horn got noticed more by composers and they started writing it into the music far more often. DeRosa was the principle horn player on a vast number recordings for movies and TV. It is quite possible that you have heard his playing more than that of any studio musician. He is 100 years old this year (born in 1920). By the way, he often was paid triple scale. And often answered three calls in single day. He said he couldn't do that nowadays due to traffic making it too hard to get to three places in a day.
@@JoelEverettComposer I saw an interesting video with Vince DeRosa talking to some younger players. One mentioned having good days and bad days. DeRosa said that you can't have bad days in this business. You must ALWAYS be ready. (I'm afraid that I do have some bad days. But I do compare myself to McNab and also Marsalis. The comparison is that my trumpets are also made of metal. That's about where the comparison ends.) It's fun to look at the discography on DeRosa's Wikipedia page since he has played with just about everybody, and that is nothing compared to the TV and movie soundtracks he did. He did pass away in 2022 at age 101.
Wow. I was driving home from Vancouver, Canada on a 5 hour trip late at night March 2021, starry black sky and I heard this on my Bose noise cancelling headsets - was absolutely absorbed. I must have listened to it 4-5 times. This is better than coffee to keep you awake! And for some reason, my silver W8 VW Passat Wagen became the Enterprise and I swear I was travelling at warp speed and never knew it until I looked at the speedo - ouch 40 over! I was transported in a musical majesty of sheer adrenalin. Incredible! As a hobby horn player, I have been tackling Marc's John Williams Tribute 1 which is really difficult. I am sincerely immensely grateful to you Marc for this challenging arrangement that make the horns sing, stand out like none other above the crowd. If there is anything that can really whip a horn player to excellence in the shortest time possible, learning to play this properly, this absolutely does it. And now this score - I am going to order it and learn that too! 6 months I figure to get this down right. The skill sets required to tackle any of Marc's arrangements is on the pro level for sure. I am no pro but this stuff is sure pushing me there at warp speed and having fun doing it! Everything about my playing has improved in months instead of years. Taking lessons is painfully slow and tedious, backwards, and can be discouraging. Add this to the study! I think it intimidates instructors!! But learning this - now, things are moving ahead at breakneck speed and improvements. For instance, I have had to learned very well, all the key signatures to 5#'s and 5b's, and now can play then with some relative ease. The highest notes (C and D) are cleaner, lips far stronger, the tone is almost Hollywood like yours, the timing being my weakest point has dramatically improved, I hear your sound in my head and heart and it comes out, the confidence has exploded, and the interest in this magnificent instrument at fever pitch. I would say that these works alone push one to excel with passion, interest, sheer fun, joy excitement, and a strong desire to master it - ALL the parts. When band resumes, the stuff they play is kindergarten to what I have learned from this alone. And playing 3-4X a week at 2 hours is quite enjoyable. Marc, you INSPIRE me. And judging from the comments, everyone else as well! But you have brought out the passion for the horn, a difficult instrument to learn and made it a monumental challenge I look forward to each time I pull it out. Thanks Dave
Thanks a lot for your comment Dave ! One of the main reasons why I'm doing these videos is to inspire people so I'm especially glad whenever I receive feedback like you just did :)
@@Marc_Papeghin I watched / listened to this again a year later, this time after a lot of playing / practicing using your music to improve. Your compositions are bloody difficult! And that forces me to learn at an accelerated pace and really stretch my progress. I listen to your music (John Williams 1), play it (try to play it) and wow, does it ever make me work hard in range, strength, fingerings (5#'s), intervals and tone. It is a workout~!!! I think this Star Trek II must be the most difficult of all horn music you have done. And that some of NA most notable horn players (Vince) played it for the sound track is a testimony to the challenging writing of Horner and those willing to tackle the job! - and you pulled it off with astonishing brilliance - Way above me, but I like the challenge of at least trying. I was wondering where you got the backgrounds from -the strings, percussion etc. I am thinking you wrote that and played it back on Cubase and / or Dorico - am I correct? Whatever the case, this is brilliant and every aspiring horn or trumpet player might want to give this a 3 month shot. Would love to get that music so we could at least entertain the notion and scare the hell out of us! lol.
@@qwiklok Thank you very much again for your kind words Dave ! This Star Trek piece definitely is amongst the craziest film covers I've done 😛 As for the backing track, sometimes I indeed recreate it in Cubase using virtual instruments, but most of the times I actually just simply play over a montage of the original soundtrack, which is the case here 🙂
@@Marc_Papeghin How do you do that without the trumpets and horns - they are a part of the original soundtrack? Can I get a one off copy of the score so I can try to kill myself prematurely and go to heaven where it will be less difficult?
Wow. I never comment on videos, but on this one, I have to. This is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time, arranged and performed amazingly! I've got goosebumps!! Thanks so much!
Wow! I am blown away! Need to see this video at a Theater!! James Horner was quite possibly the greatest composer of our time…perhaps even better than Barry and Williams, combined. Well played Marc on the French Horn and Trombone! Loved how you credited the original players too! Very classy!! 👏👏👏👏 ~ Phill, California
Don't know how i missed this one, but this is fantastic! Amazing, "stellar" work - recording, filming, arranging, must have been a ton work! Enjoyed very much.
Fantastic! Beautifully done! This performance gives me a completely new level of appreciation for Horner and his genius, composing this at the tender age of 28. Also, for the session musicians who performed it from sight, flawlessly executing all of it's complex passages that are so typical of the younger Horner. For all these reasons, this YT video is a treasure. Thanks so much for putting it together, Marc. You have rare talent.
I would die a happy death if you did a medley of Music from Star Trek: First Contact of Insurrection. Jerry Goldsmith went way too hard on both of those films!
Marc: I must listened to it 20+ times and never tire of it. I went to the store to buy it and got the intermediate 4 horn version. It is a drastically scaled back version, fair enough. what I would like to buy is the scripted score in this video. I see it as a 6 month project, mastering required skills in phrasing, rapid tongung, reading, memory etc. This monumental work inspires me . If there is anything that will vastly improve a horn player, this would do it. After this, anything is easier. This is worth the effort alone. As I work on your brilliant John Williams 1, I bite off bits and pieces until they are easy and flow like yours. Every .month I see a measured improvement. The tone has blossomed , timing better, 5#'s at one time were a death knell. Not any more. your arrangements demand skill, passion, soul. I'm totally sold. Any way I can get the score here Dave, Kelowna, BC, Canada.
Hey Dave ! Thanks a lot for your kind words :) I'm especially glad my videos inspire you ! About Star Trek II, as of now the score as it appears in the video is available only for the big battle piece (shorturl.at/krJNV) but if you want to I can also release it for the Main Title and End Title (I would have released the whole thing at once but medleys aren't allowed on Sheet Music Plus so they need to be released separately)
One of masterpieces of James Horner in his early era . The one who inspired me going into cinematic music , and become a musician . Percussionist ... doesn't matter . He used to compose very epic percussion parts in his soundtracks and love very much that his using a lot concert toms and razor hits in timpani , to ascend the loud !! And at very low , 2 or 3 Grand Pianos mimicing the percussive sound , like Carl Orff did in Carmina Burana . And to pick a little hot details , of his style , is the piano parts with low elbow clusters and open power chords in low and high register . And the great glissandos of pianos downforce and upperforce . Like Harps . But with a little dissonance . Highlight also the perfect downwards glissando in Tubular Bells . Very characteristic of his compositions! He loved brass I think like John Williams , and especially French horns , he used a lot of times Descant horns on the high top notes of the chords for flexibility to the melody ... descant horns played the melody and french horns the pedal harmony parts , that's why his early style was similar to John Williams . Star wars inspired him I think a little . RIP James Horner . You'll be missed !
That ending is AWESOME!!! As a horn player myself I can appreciate the clarity of your double tonguing and high notes. I hope to be this good is the near future.
Just watched and listened a second time, and all i can say is bravo, and well done!!, thank you for such a great performance !!...it really brought back the total feeling of the wrath of Kahn!
Perhaps the best of all of the Star Trek movies (and I mean ALL of them, thorough today, 10 September 2021), this soundtrack was the first movie soundtrack I bought in '82. Trek music is generally good; this one is the gold standard as far as I'm concerned. As a euphonium player, I *really* wanted that horn/piccolo duet in the Battle in the Mutara Nebula to be euphonium...but I learned not long afterwards that symphonies don't normally use euphoniums. Besides, the horn is awesome in this piece. If I want to play it, I'll have to get the sheet music and transcribe - I don't have the talent to do it by ear. Thank you for your performance. Just as the original did, your music left me with goosebumps and tears for the sheer emotions you evoked. Keep on playing, sir! Edit: The fact that there is ONE - JUST ONE - downvote after nearly a YEAR shows that the RUclips community does actually appreciate art, even though it can be harsh without cause. Personally, I would like to think that the one is just someone who clicked it by accident. There really is nothing here to dislike (...I write after listening for the second time in a day).
Yeeees, Marc! I am a huge Star Trek fan, and The Wrath of Khan is not only my favorite film of the franchise, but my favorite film score out of all of them. I always found those horn parts wild and interesting :-)
The great horn player Vince DeRosa (mentioned in the credits near the end of this video) passed away July 18, 2022, at age 101. If you watch much TV or see many movies or listen to very much popular music with orchestral accompaniment (everyone from Frank Sinatra to Frank Zappa) done prior to his retirement in 2008, you are very likely to hear him. Which means, that could be almost every day.
It is indeed quite high at times for the horns and quite challenging technically too (those very fast chromatic lines definitely aren't easy to play !) You can actually find similar parts in other scores Horner wrote, it seems to me that he enjoyed putting the horn players to the test 😁
Love the french horn! It's because of star trek i fell in love with the French horn. If i may, star trek first contact and the next generation inner light. Wonderful work! Also love the ff6 medley.
I think this is the most elegant RUclips video I've seen to date. I sense a lot of reverence for this music in both the performance musicianship and the video presentation.
@@Marc_Papeghin, wonderful, I was going to say, it sounds like Mr. Horner. Any Horner score is paradise for horn players. Am I correct that he used lydian for his themes?
Can you please do a cover/video just on the song "I can go the distance"from Hercules? That song has some soaring horn melodies and would be fantastic to hear them center stage.
Thank you David ! About the adds, I wish I could but this video was actually monetized by Paramount Pictures who decide where they should appear... Sorry about that !
Fantastic! I know a lot of people have mentioned Star Trek 3, which is incredibly underrated, but if love to see Aliens. Futile Escape is one of the best action cues ever, but I've always wondered what kind of meth head madness the sheet music for Bishop's Countdown looks like.
do you have any tips for someone who is wanting to start doing this myself (i was in the middle of polishing up an arrangement in musescore as i got this notification) its a remake of the hallelujah that i did a while ago musescore link in the description of my independence day video edit: i know it looks like im just trying to get views but i would like some constructive criticism from other horn players!!
If your asking from a technical point of view go for the practice, if you can play it slow you can play it at speed. if your asking from a motivational point of view, don't speak orthink of it much as you'll trick your mind into thinking it's done it and that'll make you lose steam ;) so in conclusion just do it and don't think or speak of it ;) Kind regards and best of luck!
Charlie, I am certainly no expert, but I feel it can start with first, understanding the music, and going beyond the notes, and try to really drive the feeling that the composer wrote. Go beyond the notes, and really imbibe in the emotions. Every articulation is written for a reason. Every interval is written. Also, listen to the A Theme, the transition between the A and and B themes, and how they relate to one another. I hope this helps! Do you have any videos yourself?
This is just brilliant, watched this again....There is for me in only 3 composer that wrote this good music, 1 is still alive, and the other two have sadly past away.. John Williams are still with us, James Horner and Jerry Goldsmith sadly arent. And then we have those composer from Hollywood golden years... Max Steiner, Alfred Newman, Wolfgang Korngold, Miklos Roza and Dmitri Tiomkin and many more. Yes they were quite many then.... :-) Sure Zimmer is good, and some of these new composer, but you can clearly hear wich once that still write in sense the same way as the Golden Years composer, and who aren't. JW, JH and JG do kinda belong to the golden years in my opinion. Zimmer and the younger belongs to entire new era of composing. :-)
Playing it on RUclips won't cost you anything, what usually happens is the copyright holders will let you play it/use their footage and in exchange they'll monetize the video and get all the ad revenue from it ( which is the case for most of my videos since I use a lot movie scenes for example )

Thanks a lot !!
by far my favorite soundtrack in the franchise
As a side note, the Mutara Nebula has got to be one of the most spectacular non-explosive practical effects I have ever heard of
Talent, passion, hardworking, ridiculous amount of practice and the results speak for themselves. I appreciate your mastery.

Never saw the movies or shows of star trek but the music is amazing
The shows are on netflix you should whatch them

Vince DeRosa is a Legend; so many great Hollywood musicians unknown outside of the community. Malcom McNab and Tommy Johnson amongst others.
@@JoelEverettComposer I saw an interesting video with Vince DeRosa talking to some younger players. One mentioned having good days and bad days.

Excellent playing! James Horner walks by at 5:09, on the right carrying a lamp.
Indeed, nice cameo 🙂
Yep I think the only cameo he ever did
I was today years old when I realised this. I'm 38 and have watched TWOK dozens of times..!
Wait! Seriously?! I've seen this movie many,many times! That's cool!
OMG!!! I will look for this!! He must have had such a blast getting to be on the set!!
Wow. I was driving home from Vancouver, Canada on a 5 hour trip late at night March 2021, starry black sky and I heard this on my Bose noise cancelling headsets - was absolutely absorbed. I must have listened to it 4-5 times. This is better than coffee to keep you awake! And for some reason, my silver W8 VW Passat Wagen became the Enterprise and I swear I was travelling at warp speed and never knew it until I looked at the speedo - ouch 40 over! I was transported in a musical majesty of sheer adrenalin. Incredible!

Thank you ! Very glad you enjoyed it 🙂
FANTASTIC!!
That top C# on the Horn at the end 👌

I would die a happy death if you did a medley of Music from Star Trek: First Contact of Insurrection. Jerry Goldsmith went way too hard on both of those films!
Oh man... some classic James Horner from one of the greatest sci fi movies ever made? Too great. Thank you for this!
This soundtrack has always reminded me of Mahler 1 - I love that one of my favorite movies draws inspiration from one of my favorite symphonies.
I have to ask, how did I not know that you did music from what is arguably the best star trek movie ever
Not only that, but you managed to match it in terms of epicness

Wow. 1. I love Star Trek but never paid attention it deserves to the score; 2. your interpretation is soooo full of emotion
The ending is AWESOME
So - from a brass perspective - how hard are these parts? As I know it's high in the range - especially for horns at times. Thanks!! Great job!
It is indeed quite high at times for the horns and quite challenging technically too (those very fast chromatic lines definitely aren't easy to play !)
You can actually find similar parts in other scores Horner wrote, it seems to me that he enjoyed putting the horn players to the test 😁
BRAVO!!!
Superbe adaptation, merci pour ces duos trompette/Cor, cela m'a permis de me remettre à la trompette avec des morceaux ludiques.
Perfect play... I get goose pimples :D This is rare for me!
Great work, pal. Loved it!
Thanks ! :)
Love the french horn! It's because of star trek i fell in love with the French horn. If i may, star trek first contact and the next generation inner light. Wonderful work! Also love the ff6 medley.
I love this song.
I cannot play an instrument nor understand sheet music. But ... I've always loved the soundtrack to the Wrath of Khan. This was great.
Very glad you enjoyed it 🙂
So well done, Marc!! I was wondering how I had missed this one and saw it just released. This was the best Star Trek score IMO.
My favorite too 🙂
Absolutely fantastic! Loved this movie and its score.
Amazing, just amazing. Fantastic work Marc, an absolute triumph!
I think this is the most elegant RUclips video I've seen to date. I sense a lot of reverence for this music in both the performance musicianship and the video presentation.
One of my favorite soundtracks of all time. Well done, sir!
Also, the B-Theme sounds like it's in Horner's favorite mode: Lydian.
A cause de l'arret des notifs de youtube par mail, je savais pas que tu l'avais sorti !!! Hate d'écouter ça et un gros bravo par avance :) ! 🖖
If I remember, this was scored by James Horner. Correct? If so, Horner's love for horns is really proven here.
Yep ! Scored by a young James Horner in 1982 🙂
@@Marc_Papeghin, wonderful, I was going to say, it sounds like Mr. Horner. Any Horner score is paradise for horn players. Am I correct that he used lydian for his themes?
Can you please do a cover/video just on the song "I can go the distance"from Hercules? That song has some soaring horn melodies and would be fantastic to hear them center stage.
Another good one Marc! Do you arrange all these yourself? I have to get help sometimes as arranging is not really my skill set.
yea he arranges all of them himself
That was sooo cool. If I can make a request. I would love to hear you do a few excepts from The Hunt for Red October please ;)
Never mind. I should stop posting requests on peoples channels. :(
I gave myself a thumbs up b/c I care.
Époustouflant! Je ne sais que dire d’autre. WoW! Et merci!!!
Bravo Marc. Is it possible to disable mid-roll adds?
Thank you David ! About the adds, I wish I could but this video was actually monetized by Paramount Pictures who decide where they should appear...
Sorry about that !
Fantastic and illuminating. Thank you!
Great job!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! I have been waiting for you to tackle this one!
Awesome. More Star Trek pls :D
Oh yes ça faisait lgtps enfin 😍, top, hyper fan 👌
Do you think you could do some covers from the movie Twister?
Sure ! Here's "Wheatfield" 🙂

First time hearing this and it's amaaaazing! :D
Wow!
Impressive most Impressive indeed
Fantastic! I know a lot of people have mentioned Star Trek 3, which is incredibly underrated, but if love to see Aliens.
Futile Escape is one of the best action cues ever, but I've always wondered what kind of meth head madness the sheet music for Bishop's Countdown looks like.
I think you should watch these videos then :)

So much frisson!
fantastic
do you have any tips for someone who is wanting to start doing this myself (i was in the middle of polishing up an arrangement in musescore as i got this notification) its a remake of the hallelujah that i did a while ago musescore link in the description of my independence day video
edit: i know it looks like im just trying to get views but i would like some constructive criticism from other horn players!!
If your asking from a technical point of view go for the practice, if you can play it slow you can play it at speed.
if your asking from a motivational point of view, don't speak orthink of it much as you'll trick your mind into thinking it's done it and that'll make you lose steam ;)
so in conclusion just do it and don't think or speak of it ;)
Kind regards and best of luck!
thanks!
Charlie, I am certainly no expert, but I feel it can start with first, understanding the music, and going beyond the notes, and try to really drive the feeling that the composer wrote. Go beyond the notes, and really imbibe in the emotions. Every articulation is written for a reason. Every interval is written. Also, listen to the A Theme, the transition between the A and and B themes, and how they relate to one another.
I hope this helps! Do you have any videos yourself?
This is just brilliant, watched this again....There is for me in only 3 composer that wrote this good music, 1 is still alive, and the other two have sadly past away.. John Williams are still with us, James Horner and Jerry Goldsmith sadly arent. And then we have those composer from Hollywood golden years... Max Steiner, Alfred Newman, Wolfgang Korngold, Miklos Roza and Dmitri Tiomkin and many more. Yes they were quite many then.... :-) Sure Zimmer is good, and some of these new composer, but you can clearly hear wich once that still write in sense the same way as the Golden Years composer, and who aren't. JW, JH and JG do kinda belong to the golden years in my opinion. Zimmer and the younger belongs to entire new era of composing. :-)
Absolutely true !!
Do you have the trombone parts for this?
Unfortunately I don't, I only transcribed horns and trumpets !
Musician, demonstrate thyself.
Playing through this has become my goto test to see if I'm in shape...I am not.
It takes a man to play both French Horn and trumpet.
nice 👍🏼
Awesome!! You do realise you'll have to do The Search For Spock now though right?! Lots of top C#s for you to get your teeth into...
Haha oh yeah ST III sure has some awesome horn parts too ^^
@@Marc_Papeghin Not only horn... Trumpet parts too hehe
how did you get rights to play stuff from Disney
Good question xD
I think its covered under fair use.
no its not they take it down the second they find it
@@charliepeterson8397 They don't always take it down, actually nowadays in a lot of cases they tolerate it and monetize it in exchange !
okay thank you marc!!!
such a shame that youtube now is putting ads in the middle of videos i keep getting thrown off by shaq saying "you know what makes me thirsty"
Can't do anything about sad unfortunately...
It was automatically monetized by Paramount Pictures !
i saw that from your reply on my other comment. thanks!!!
On the other hand, you get to view this vast universe of videos at no charge. SOME sort of revenue is required to make that possible.
all of these sextuplets should summon adam neely upon playing. Also, fan-freaking-tastic playing and visualization. such a great score.
Pure gold, difficult to play along those sextuplets are fast.
GYAT
how much does it cost to get rights to play this stuff
Playing it on RUclips won't cost you anything,
what usually happens is the copyright holders will let you play it/use their footage and in exchange they'll monetize the video and get all the ad revenue from it ( which is the case for most of my videos since I use a lot movie scenes for example )
ah ok THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!
There's so much John Williams in here... I wonder why..
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, all I hear is Krull!
@@lancemcclung3991 Haha yeah that can sometimes happen with Horner 😁 That said Wrath of Khan was composed before Krull 😀
Excellent. I just wish you had included Genesis Countdown”. My favorite piece of music bar none
This music gives me goosebumps and you played it marvelously Marc! Thank you!
