- "This is a more character-driven piece, and its also about a planet that everyone knows will fall, and falls to the Covenant. So it's a more somber, more visceral introduction to the game that we're making."
- — Martin O'Donnell [1]
The Halo: Reach Original Soundtrack was released in stores September 28, 2010,[2] and was distributed via iTunes and Sumthing Digital on September 14.[3] There are a total of 20 tracks in the two-disk set comprising a total of 67 minutes worth of music.[4]
The soundtrack was composed by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori with help from Stan LePard and C. Paul Johnson [5], and published by Sumthing Distribution.
The Halo:Reach Soundtrack marks the final time composers Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori collaborate and compose original music for a Halo game.[2] In a press release, Martin O'Donnell referred to the soundtrack as "... the culmination of our efforts".[6]
