Yesterday, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce unveiled a long overdue Walk of Fame star for the late Jerry Goldsmith, who over his five-decades long career composed five Star Trek feature films and themes for two of the TV series.
He won an Oscar for his score for The Omen in 1977, but was nominated for 17 additional ones, including a nod for 1979's Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Some of his most memorable non-Trek scores, as hard as they are to narrow down to a few, include Chinatown, Patton, Planet of the Apes, Alien, Mulan, The Boys from Brazil, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
His Star Trek films were Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek: Insurrection and Star Trek Nemesis.

Certainly overdue as he was one of the greats when it came to film scores. |
