Ahead of the release of the Star Trek: Picard soundtrack later this month and then on vinyl next month, a track from this soundtrack has been released thanks to Collider. The track is Leaving Spacedock and is from episode 9 of the third and final season of Star Trek: Picard.
The music is written by Stephen Barton and Frederick Wiedmann and while it has new themes, it also draws heavily from the themes to the past. Both composers spoke with Collider about honoring the music of the past from Star Trek composers like Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner while also moving forward with something new and fresh. The result is a beautiful orchestra driven score that has depth, movement, and is a valuable storytelling device in this season of Star Trek: Picard.
Here is Leaving Spacedock from the 9th episode of Star Trek: Picard. The full score will be released digitally on April 20, 2023 following the release of the final episode of the season the day before. The soundtrack will be released on Vinyl on May 12th.

Star Trek Picard (Original Series Soundtrack – Season 3) – Stephen Barton & Frederik Wiedmann
$34.98
Scored by award winning British composer Stephen Barton (Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Titanfall,12 Monkeys, Apex: Legends) & German Emmy winning composer Frederik Wiedmann (All Hail King Julien, Green Lantern: The Animated Series, Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, Son of Batman, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis and Justice League: Gods and Monsters)
Star Trek: Picard features Sir Patrick Stewart reprising his iconic role as Jean-Luc Picard, which he played for seven seasons on Star Trek: The Next Generation and in 4 feature length films. The new series will follow this iconic character into the next chapter of his life.
Pulled out of retirement (again) by a distress call from old flame Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) enlists the help of Captain Riker (Jonathan Frakes) and sets out to save the day. What he uncovers, however, is a conspiracy reaching to the furthest corners of the Federation, and the return of an old foe, long thought defeated.
