Orbit of Glass is the fourteenth track in Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 1.

Overview

The piece is a re-interpretation of Ambient Wonder from Halo: Original Soundtrack. The piece was incorporated into the ending of Opening Volley in Sacred Icon Suite from Volume 2.

Appearances

The music can be heard in the form of Opening Volley during the level Sacred Icon, after Thel 'Vadamee deactivates through the last sets of pistons to shut down the containment shield at the Sentinel wall.

Arrangements

The piece was arranged into the second part of Prophet Suite in Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack.

Production notes

  • One of the patches used in the production of the track is called "Glass Orbit",[1] and likely serves as the namesake of the track.
  • The name may also allude to the "orbit of glass" that occurs after the Covenant glasses a planet.
