'''Préludes No. 4: Les sons et les parfums tournent dans l'air du soir''' was a musical piece from Claude Debussy's ''Preludes'', 24 pieces divided into two "Books." The name translates to "The sounds and fragrances swirl through the evening air," and is a reference to a poem by [[Wikipedia:Charles Baudelaire|Charles Baudelaire]], "Harmonie du soir". | |||
The piece held some relevance for Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] and [[Cortana]]. It was playing when Halsey transferred Cortana into an [[armored matrix]] on [[Reach]] before [[Fall of Reach|its fall]].<ref name="Osiris">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', ''campaign level [[Osiris (level)|Osiris]]''</ref> She later requested it from [[Jerrod]] when traveling aboard the ''[[Beatrice]]'' in [[2552]].<ref name="Beatrice"/> In 2558, the piece was overheard by [[Fireteam Osiris]] [[Battle of Kamchatka|as they reached the temple on]] [[Kamchatka]] where Halsey was being held.<ref name="Osiris"/> Later that month, ''Preludes'' was hummed by [[Cortana]] while she took control of a [[Halo Array|Halo ring]], evidently remembering the tune from her time under Halsey.<ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians''', ''campaign level [[Guardians]]'' (legendary ending)</ref> | |||

''Preludes'' was included as the forty-first track of the ''[[Halo 5: Guardians Original Soundtrack]]''. Alongside "[[On Deck]]", the track was released as an exclusive digital download for purchases of the soundtrack's limited edition. In-game, the track is heard during the opening cutscene for the game during Halsey's lab in [[CASTLE Base]], and again as-played by Halsey during her temple in the first level, [[Osiris (level)|Osiris]]. The tune is later hummed by Cortana in the game's [[Legendary]] cutscene. | |||
The song can also be heard in the [[Warzone]] level [[Battle of Noctus]], near the art structure inside the Monument. | The song can also be heard in the [[Warzone]] level [[Battle of Noctus]], near the art structure inside the Monument. | ||
