It wasnt easy for anyone, including composerStephen Barton.
Barton admits, however, that he painted himself, or composed himself rather, into a corner.
I think about four hours in I was literally dead, absolutely.
I was doing seven days weeks, 16-hour days, I hadnt seen my family.
It was absolutely brutal.
Bartons goal to compose an all-new score for Season 3 wore him down.
He credits showrunner Terry Malalas with suggesting they hireFrederik Wiedmannfor episodes 7-10.
Barton cited the launch of the Titan from Spacedock was his high-pressure score.
He also wanted to pay homage to previousStar Trekcomposers including Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner.
Were talking Dennis McCarthy, Barton said of the esteemed list.
Were talking Leonard Rosenman, Cliff Eidelman, Alexander Courage.
