an alternate klingon opera and other 'subspace' secrets from the star trek musical
Kay Hanley and Tom Polce, former members of rock band Letters to Cleo, discuss their work composing the music for the franchise's first full-on musical.
As they were working on the piece, some of the higher-ups caught wind of it and wanted to put the kibosh on that plan. "To be fair, I don't believe it was the network," Polce clarifies. "I think it was some of the folks on the core Gene Roddenberry side. It wasn't so much like, 'No, no, no.' It was like, 'Maybe you do that and you have something in your back pocket and we can discuss later.
"And we did in that song address the struggle between being human and [Vulcan]," Hanley says. "Searching for Y is human, I'm the X. It's a human variable that he should not have ever f---ed with and he's not going to do it again. We thought people were going to be like, 'Oh my God! It's so clever!' But they didn't.
Typically when writing the music for the show, Hanley or Polce would come up with a brief sample — a short riff on a guitar or a quick vocal run — as the first kernel of a melodic idea. For "Keep Us Connected," Polce remembers Hanley wanting to start with a Gregorian chant. "Then she just starts going numb, and she just starts going and I'm like, 'What's that? I don't even know what's happening.' I'm not boxing her in. Let's go.
