"In 'Conscience of the King', Uhura sings 'Beyond Antares', a celestialpastoral idyll, recalling the impressionist songs of Debussy and Ravel—which Rebecca Leydon (2003) has explored as a major source of 'space-age bachelor pad' music. Uhura's voice alternates between low, purring tones in the mouth and throat, and high, pure notes from the head; in its higher register, her voice is remarkably similar to that of the theme music, which has led many fans to assume inaccurately that Nichols had also provided the vocals for the theme."

"The Vulcan lute (sometimes referred to as a Vulcan harp, Vulcan lyre, or Vulcan lyrette) was a twelve-stringed musical instrument played on the planet Vulcan that was tuned on a diatonic scale and noted to be very soothing." [2]
