 Among the new cues Horner wrote was a " percussive and atonal " theme for the Klingons which is represented heavily in the film . Jeff Bond described the cue as a compromise between music from Horner 's earlier film Wolfen , Khan 's motif from The Wrath of Khan , and Jerry Goldsmith 's Klingon music from The Motion Picture . Horner also adapted music from Sergei Prokofiev 's Romeo and Juliet for part of the Enterprise theft sequence and its destruction , while the scoring to Spock 's resurrection on Vulcan was lifted from Horner 's Brainstorm ending .
