I think it was actually one recorder cue for Klingons in both recordings.
What sounds like silence is actually a very slow fadeout of that cymbal/gond/whatever it is crash before the Enterprise arrives at Spacedock.
I don't think it actually goes completely silent, but you'd have to have a pretty high volume to hear it towards the end of the first part.

Question for Mr. Bulk or Mr. Kendall, were there any unexpected surprises in the music when you guys were working on it, aka the moment the Enterprise jumped to Warp in Trek II (Kirk Takes Command)?

The TV production values, including shots of the Enterprise that looked exactly like I'd turned out the lights and held a flashlight up to the model that used to hang in my bedroom;
Nah, it looked fine.
The badly executed destruction of the Enterprise,
Nah, it was fine.
The stilted script and hamhanded, obvious attempts at comedy ("To your planet, welcome"; "I do not deserve to live" - "Fine, I'll kill you later");
Nah, they were fine.
McCoy sounding exactly like Spock in scenes that are meant to be touching but come across, despite De's fine performance, as unintentionally funny;
Nah, he was fine.
And is the name of Esteban's ship supposed to be funny? Gee, let's name it the U.S.S. Grissom and what a surprise, it's immolated just like the poor astronaut whose name is its inspiration.
Considering the respect the Trek movie guys had for astronauts and the space prgram in general, I seriously think it was meant to honor the astronaut, and that kind of tasteless humor was never part of Trek catalogue. That you'd make that connection actually says more about you than them.
You really think Star Trek III is better than what is regarded as the best Star Trek movie ever made?
The popular vote is still an opinion. Personally, while I find Trek II to be the better film, I enjoy Trek III more. Go figure.

I was 13 when I saw it, and it got me to look up who Gus Grissom was.
(Of course, if I'd seen "The Right Stuff" the previous year, I might not have had to do so.)
Remember, Star Trek also paid a touching tribute to the Challenger crew the next time out:
I think you'd have to say there was certainly a mutual respect between this particular entertainment franchise and the national space agency . . .

Well, I've seen some interesting reactions 
One thing that should NOT surprise you is the gratitude and appreciation of the work you and your colleagues put into these releases.

I love that this release is coming. I love that's a 2 CD set.
Critics can go and Pon Farr themselves as far as I'm concerned!
