From a non-spoiler review of the new season at TrekCore.com:
"In addition, composer Jeff Russo has been replaced by Stephen Barton for Season 3, whose score is more traditionally bombastic — and riffs heavily on all kinds of previous Star Trek themes to great effect."
and from TrekMovie.com:
"The score by Stephen Barton is spectacular, propulsive, and energetic, and honors the rich history of the great Trek composers such as Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Cliff Eidleman, and even the less great Leonard Rosenman. His music also rectifies the single greatest misstep of the Berman/Lauritson era of milquetoast, minimalist, easy listening scores in TNG’s post-Ron Jones years."
I am looking forward to what Stephen Barton has for us!

There's a thread talking about this, also linking to a video of part of Barton's score.

I mean, that would be nice, but I have to suggest: Why that theme? That's a catch-all theme for FC. Wouldn't a better theme have been an updated grand-scale arrangement of Dennis McCarthy's rejected theme to "Star Trek: The Next Generation", which was still used in season one episodes and became what fans called "Picard's Theme"? Even the woodwind theme from the episode "The Inner Light" would be far far FAR more suiting.

That rejected McCarthy theme was just horrendous. More Spaceballs than Star Trek.
I don't think it was all that bad, just more "Superman" than "Star Trek."

Is is true that they reused the First Contact theme for the new titles?

Somehow this went completely under the radar here.
Yes they did

I'm glad Eidleman is included in the homages. Such a properly heavy score, that one. It really sticks with me.
