What piece by Hector Berlioz in First Contact
In First Contact, near the beginning while Picard is in his ready room (just before Riker shows up), he is listening to some music by Berlioz. what is this piece called? is it "the Damnation of Faust"??


 * From Louis Hector Berlioz:

"While patrolling the Romulan Neutral Zone in the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-E) during the Battle of Sector 001, Captain Jean-Luc Picard listened to Vallon Sonore from the opera Les Troyens by Berlioz. Commander Riker entered his office and mistook it for Bizet. "
