Star Trek Captain Picard's Flute+Piano Duo #2

[@LovablePWNER]

I remember watching the Inner Light episode and then much later seeing this episode for the first time. I remember being like "Hey isn't that the folk song he learned from that probe?" Then it hit me that that is such a profound memory for Picard that he would only play it for someone he cares deeply for. TNG is truly a landmark of television.

[@danielespinoza8010]

This scene is a master piece and she projects a great personality that even charms the great captain Jean-Luc Picard.

[@Heart2HeartBooks]

My heart breaks for Captain Picard. So little joy has he had in his life.

[@utpawn9830]

This entire scene is incredibly beautiful. Exceptionally acted and wonderful music.

[@bigcanucker6856]

This melody is so hauntingly beautiful it brings me to tears.

[@stampede122]

Mozart’s moonlight Sonata

[@stampede122]

Second one being the inner light theme from the episode of the same name

[@SailorGhost]

In fact, the second theme si called "Skye Boat". You can hear it also in "Outlander" series. Bye!!

[@MarkyMarc413]

The cutaway to Geordi in Engineering and Data walking past, then peeking back are two of the funniest unintentionally comedic moments in TNG history.

[@jherrenor]

Picard should've had that tune reproduced on a music sheet to spread across the world. The people from the Inner Light episode wanted to be remembered so that they would have a legacy but Picard only kept the memory of them to himself as it was too painful to share with anyone...until he met Neela Darren.

[@bibimir]

The song he plays has been made into Picard's theme too if you listen to it.

[@chrispeterson4798]

So glad I was alive for this....Absolutely fantastic acting in a wonderful imaginative possibly our future world.

[@wolvie14]

I know not why , but i am brought to tears just thinking about The Inner light episode .

[@Vention1MGTOW]

Your own life has equal meaning.

[@svanur082]

Very beautiful melody, great episode and great acting, love star trek

[@twintornados]

Sadly, the actress Wendy Hughes who played Lt Darin has passed away today 3/7/14....God bless you Wendy....

[@DragoMusivini]

WTF seriously?,that blows warp cores she's a good actor.

[@twintornados]

Drago Musevini yes....she has passed and her memory lives in all of us.

[@IZZYINN2]

Well may she rest in peace, This is a classic episode...……. Never let history forget the NAME "Enterprise" Make it so...……..

[@TrestanSKYWALKR]

I always loved this scene!!!

[@jonsmith586]

Brings a tear to my eye :')

[@aperson22222]

I don't really like that the only time that haunting melody with its beautiful and tragic implications only gets reused once, for Picard to break character by having a fling with a one-off guest star.

[@fireemblemaddict128]

The song from The Inner Light... by now Picard had already lived a whole life in his own mind. This song is basically his love theme.

[@ux92]

Every time I watch this episode tears drop from my eyes :')

[@moomoomoo33ass]

Such a great scene and exceptional music! And all on a tv show! STD should be ashamed

[@alexanderjones9572]

Rip Wendy Hughes. If she hadn’t died, I wonder if Nella Daren would’ve been in ‘Picard’.

[@briscoejr1]

The great Wendy Hughes..... So sorry to hear of her passing... Rest well, beautiful lady!

[@martin.pokorny]

I've never played any instrument in my life, but I realized some time ago I really want to. I was thinking about ocarina or recorder. (I was only sure it must not be a big instrument like piano and it must not be a too "hardcore" instrument like a violin.) Then I somehow find out there is a flute called "tin whistle". I remembered Star Trek and Picard and... I was enlightened... I knew it will be my instrument. I bought my first tin whistle a few days ago. (I can play an octave and half of a very simple melody so far, but... I feel motivated.)

[@nicolasst-gelais1766]

Love the Tin Whistle, I also like the low whistle, it makes me think of the native american flute that I also love. I recommend you take a look.

[@HighviewSP]

RIP Wendy one of our great Aussie actors

[@yep9557]

It's so good, even the crew in Engineering hear it!

[@mattisschulte1925]

So beautiful......, rest in peace wendy huhges

[@yep9557]

I LOVE THIS SONG!

[@cjn0001]

This and inner light are my favorite episodes

[@SirhcUK1st]

I second that. I remember watching this as a kid and wondering how long it would be before someone invented a roll up keyboard. last Christmas i was browsing in Menkind then hallelujah!!!

[@GooglyEyedJoe]

Considering they can be heard by the Engineering crew just before, imagine the sounds the Engineers would hear if they "got busy", I'm sure Data would hear then.

[@DarkFlatulence]

Amazing episode!

[@Yewon2001]

So beautiful

[@TrestanSKYWALKR]

I miss TNG!!! Best crew and ship ever!!! Sorry Kirk, Janeway, Archer, Sisko and new Kirk!!!

[@aufmischa]

just love it

[@dereklaw9234]

Wendy Hughes Reminded Me Of. Our Mother Jeannie Yvonne. Berg she past away on1/10/2016 Of Brain Cancer She Leaves Behind TWO DAUGHTERS AND ONE SON

[@sebastianschulz6531]

Oh my, Geordie is a cylon too! ;-)

[@peterburke3944]

this reminds me of that scene of that ep in theory with data and jenna d sora where they jam with keiko o brien

[@stephenfarthing485]

I'd like to hear the Inner Light done by the RSDG. I believe it would be a big thing to do with the bagpipes.

[@stephenfarthing485]

And I would just love to find the musical manuscript to it. I think that it matches a great number of similar music - especially that of Scotland.

[@TutsTeach]

Anyone know any artist/group that plays music like this? Really nice flute pieces filled with feeling, rather than electronic flutes devoid of feeling?

[@briscoejr1]

TutsTeach There is an excellent arrangement by Jay Chattaway..... It has also been performed by the artists in Landau, Germany on several occassions....

[@FrauIndian]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKq8mZV5ZbKLors. This is over 6 minutes. If you look below on the comments I think someone posted another version. Look at the replies for Kevnin Lum asking about the song as well.

[@BattleCat380]

Ah...iv'e found it. Your right she is playing Moonlight Sonata.

[@IZZYINN2]

Who's cutting onions,

[@kevinlum7688]

Is there a recording somewhere of the complete version (flute and piano only) of this tune and arrangement? Maybe a cover version done by someone?

[@nicolasst-gelais1766]

[@kevinlum7688]

Nicolas - Thank you for your response with the links. Very nice versions.

[@josephstribrny2539]

I would love to hear this put into an arrangement with Jon Schmidt's "To The Summit"

[@BedsitBob]

That actress could really play piano.

[@mrdexs]

Intro song also to Outlander

[@TrestanSKYWALKR]

You're joking right!?! Without TNG there would be no DS9, Voyager or Enterprise, let alone the new movie franchise. TNG paved the way for all of the followers success. However, Voyage did have Seven of Nine!!!

[@Thundernerd2aBird]

How is she playing moonlight sonata on a tiny piano like that? :)

[@TutsTeach]

Welcome to TV land. The place where the impossible is made possible by the ambiguity of technology that is not fully detailed. Its a quantum entanglement piano where each note is entangled with the corresponding octave note and using a quantum selection discriminator it can selectively play notes in what ever octave the person desires the note to be. I have no idea lol. It's magic.

[@jebes909090]

Space piano

[@janX9]

*Tablature Here:* www.thewhistleshop.com/innerlight/innerlig.htm I need to learn this on my penny whistle now!

[@zeroclockgaming]

[@yep9557]

Too bad there wasn't a spot on the ship that could make the music echo through more of it.

[@vaiosan775]

:-)

[@Deathtroopers09]

Geordi haha

[@TheDakotapacman]

Janeway is better
