walt disney world - epcot fountain - Star Trek II music?

Is it just me or does anyone else notice that half of the Epcot Fountain music sounds almost tone for tone like the Star Trek II (Wrath of Kahn) music?

Wow - fun to hear!

Wow, I've never thought about that before, but I guess I can kind of see it. Hmm.. does Paramount Pictures have any connection to MGM?
Please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle until the ride comes to a full and complete stop. Thank you, and enjoy the rest of your day here at Walt Disney World.

Indiana Jones is Paramount, but that is the only thing I can think of. I guess they could have gone to the same composer James Horner. Disney used James Horner for The Rocketeer and Captain EO.

Sure enough, the following link shows that Horner authored the Fountain music:
