As done with ''The Next Generation'' and ''Deep Space Nine'', a soundtrack album of the series' pilot episode "Caretaker" and a CD single containing three variations of the main theme were released by [[GNP Crescendo Record Co.|Crescendo Records]] in 1995 between seasons one and two.<ref>{{cite web|title = Jay Chattaway & Jerry Goldsmith β Star Trek: Voyager (Music From The Original Television Soundtrack)| date=March 28, 1995 |url = http://www.discogs.com/Jay-Chattaway-Jerry-Goldsmith-Star-Trek-Voyager-Music-From-The-Original-Television-Soundtrack/release/1313773|publisher = [[Discogs]]|access-date = May 31, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title = Jerry Goldsmith β Star Trek Voyager Main Title| year=1995 |url = http://www.discogs.com/Jerry-Goldsmith-Star-Trek-Voyager-Main-Title/release/1678599|publisher = [[Discogs]]|access-date = May 31, 2013}}</ref> In 1996, the theme was also released as a piano solo songbook.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Corporation|first=Hal Leonard Publishing|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ER-90PB5sMcC|title=Complete Star Trek Theme Music: Themes from All TV Shows & Movies : Piano Solo|date=1996|publisher=Hal Leonard Corporation|isbn=978-0-7935-5246-7|language=en}}</ref> In 2017, La-La Land Records issued ''Star Trek: Voyager Collection, Volume 1'', a four-disc limited-edition release containing Goldsmith's theme music and tracks from [[Jay Chattaway]]'s "Rise", "Night", the two-parter "Equinox", "Pathfinder", "Spirit Folk", "The Haunting of Deck Twelve", "Shattered", "The Void", and the two-parter "Scorpion"; [[Dennis McCarthy (composer)|Dennis McCarthy]]'s "The 37's", the two-parter "Basics", "The Q and the Gray", "Concerning Flight", "Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy", and the two-parters "Workforce" and "Year of Hell"; [[David Bell (composer)|David Bell]]'s "Dark Frontier"; and Paul Baillargeon's "Lifesigns".<ref>{{cite web |title= Star Trek: Voyager Collection, Volume 1 |url= http://startreksoundtracks.com/voy/voy-lala-1.html |series= Star Trek Soundtracks |access-date= August 20, 2017 |archive-date= November 18, 2020 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20201118034806/http://startreksoundtracks.com/voy/voy-lala-1.html |url-status= live }}</ref> In 2020, ''[[Newsweek]]'' magazine said that the ''Voyager'' theme by Goldsmith was the best of all ''Star Trek'' television series' themes.<ref name=":4">{{Cite web|date=2020-05-26|title=Every "Star Trek" theme song ranked|url=https://www.newsweek.com/star-trek-theme-songs-ranked-next-generation-voyager-main-title-alexander-courage-movie-soundtrack-1506088|access-date=2021-04-19|website=Newsweek|language=en}}</ref> The article elaborates, "...''Voyager'' recaptures some of the spacey ethereality of Courage's original vocal melody, while adding a deep space resonance that evoked the series' lost explorers, far from home among uncharted stars."<ref name=":4" />
