Episode Behind the Scenes

TREKCORE > VOY > EPISODES > VIRTUOSO > Behind the Scenes

The Qomar city as seen from the surface is the same city used in "Year of Hell". It resembled a Zahl colony, which was eradicated by Annorax.
   
The Komar (pronounced identically) was the name of the non-corporeal race of aliens that took control of Tuvok in "Cathexis".
   
The Doctor's suggestion that he delete his musical subroutine as punishment for his actions is similar to an offer he will make in "Renaissance Man" to delete his modified programming after disobeying Captain Janeway's direct orders.
   
Several costumes from this episode were sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay, including the costumes of Zadrina, J.R. Quinonez, and William Smith.
   
The blue synthesizer played by one of the Harry Kim and the Kimtones members is a Yamaha CS1x. The back of the synthesizer (bearing the Yamaha logo and various input/output ports) was disguised with a metallic-looking plate.
   
One of the Qomar spectators is the actor Leonard Crofoot, who played two characters in Star Trek: The Next Generation; Trent, the male servant of Mistress Beata from "Angel One" and Data's neutral-gender "child" in "The Offspring".
