'''A Walk in the Woods''' is the sixth track in ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''. | |||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
The piece is dominated by synthetic woodwinds and a bass, which together start off solo before being joined by a steel drum. The woodwinds then begin to fade out, allowing the drums to begin dominating the piece with a pulsing, regular beat. Quickly, the winds join back in, re-establishing the melody of the piece. The melody fades out again, to be replaced by contrasting beats on cymbals; soon, the melody returns, now with the cymbals laid over it to lend a secondary beat to the piece. Near the end, the melody fades out for good, allowing the piece to gently conclude with cymbals sounding over the consistent pulse of the drum. | The piece is dominated by synthetic woodwinds and a bass, which together start off solo before being joined by a steel drum.
