Opening Suite is the first track in the Halo: Original Soundtrack. It is composed of four untitled movements: the music for the Bungie logo sequence (0:00-0:10), a variation of the Halo Theme Gregorian chant (0:11-0:36), an excerpt of the Halo Theme Gregorian chant (0:37-1:06), and the space theme (1:07-3:33).

The entire track except for the first section was rearranged into Random Slipspace Trajectory in the Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Original Soundtrack.

Bungie logo theme
The track opens with a strong and upbeat percussive piece (0:10). It plays in the opening Bungie logo sequence.

The piece was remixed with an electric guitar solo by Steve Vai into Rising (from Prologue in Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 2.

Halo Theme Gregorian chant variation
A variation of the Gregorian chant from the Halo Theme (0:25) features vocals singing notes from the key of the Halo Theme.

It plays in the campaign level The Truth and Reconciliation, in the cinematic in which Jacob Keyes is rescued, when Cortana talks about Halo possessing a religious significant to the Covenant.

The piece was given a new rendition and incorporated into the opening moments of the music played in the Warthog run in the Halo 3 campaign level Halo.

Halo Theme Gregorian chant excerpt
