Cairo Suite is the second track on Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 2, and plays mainly in the Halo 2 campaign level Cairo Station.. It is composed of Cold Blue Light (0:00-1:54), Waking Spartan (1:54-5:30), Jeweled Hull (5:30-7:33), and Chill Exposure (7:33-9:42).
Overview
Cold Blue Light
Cold Blue Light (1:54) is a rearrangement of the fifth section from Opening Suite of the Halo: Original Soundtrack. The piece briefly plays near the end of the cinematic during the level The Heretic and again near the end of the opening cinematic during the level Gravemind. It also plays briefly in the opening in the credits of Halo: Reach. A short reprise plays in Penance (from the later track Delta Halo Suite). The piece was rearranged into Only a Star, Only the Sea in Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack and into Cairo Suite 1 in Halo Legends: Original Soundtrack.
Waking Spartan
Waking Spartan (3:36) features military-style snare drums, and incorporates string variations from The Last Spartan. It plays during the opening cinematic of the level Cairo Station.
Jeweled Hull
Jeweled Hull (2:03) takes on a mystic, reverent tune, with echoing digital noises sounding in every few seconds. A variation plays in the level Cairo Station, after Malta Station explodes. The piece was rearranged into the third section of Prophet Suite in Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack.
Chill Exposure
Chill Exposure (2:09) features digital chimes, building to more digital noises and fragments of soft choirs. It concludes with a soft gong. It plays in the level Cairo Station, during the chapter "Authorized Personnel Only". The piece was rearranged into the first section of Prophet Suite in Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack.
