Ghosts and Glass is the nineteenth track heard on the Halo: Reach Original Soundtrack.

Overview
The track opens with strings playing a short mysterious melody, followed immediately by low strings taking the lead in a sad melody that is the first theme, ending with harp accompaniments. A solo flute then take over for the opening of the second theme, playing a hopefully melody, which is continued by strings. The track ends with a reprise of the first theme.

The ending of the second theme was adapted into the ending of the earlier track Ashes.

Appearances
The full piece is a bonus track found exclusively in the soundtrack, and thus cannot be heard in any part of Halo: Reach.

However, a shortened version of the first theme, featuring a more prominent low strings section, titled Return (from the earlier track The Package), plays in the campaign level The Package.

A piano-only version of the first theme, titled Spartans Never Die (from the earlier track Epilogue), plays in the opening cinematic of the campaign level Lone Wolf.

Production notes
The title is most likely a reference to the dead Spartans (ghosts) and the glassing (glass) of Reach.
