Star Trek: Deep Space Nine<\/em>‘s Jeffrey Combs<\/strong> will be donning his tux to emcee the Colorado Springs Philharmonic Pops Star Trek: The Final Frontier Concert<\/em>, which features music from Star Trek<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“It’s my maiden voyage,” said Combs. “I’ve never done such a thing before. I have a little bit of the jitters.”<\/p>\n

The music of Star Trek<\/em> is “iconic,” said Combs. “It runs the gamut of music itself. It speaks to us. I especially like the music of Deep Space Nine<\/em> because I did most of my work on Deep Space Nine<\/em>. Composer Jerry Goldsmith<\/strong> is one of my favorite film composers. He did five Star Trek<\/em> movies – I didn’t know that until I was reading up for this. He did the main theme for Star Trek: Voyager<\/em>. I’m looking forward to hearing that live. His music is the heart and soul of Star Trek<\/em>. I went on YouTube<\/em> to listen to the pieces. Some I knew immediately, and some were ‘what is this?’ To hear them performed live by an orchestra is really exciting.”<\/p>\n

Combs spoke about his work on Star Trek<\/em> and when asked if he had a favorite of the seven characters he portrayed, had this to say: “And whenever someone asks me if I have a favorite, I ask if they have children. Because how can you have a favorite? It’s like they’re all my babies. I love all the differences between them.”<\/p>\n

The Colorado Springs Philharmonic Pops Star Trek: The Final Frontier Concert<\/em> will be held at the Pikes Peak Center<\/em> on October 28 and 29.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
