Covenant Dance is a song included in the Halo: Original Soundtrack.
As its name implies, the song is carried by a strong dance beat. At 00:16, the beat becomes underlaid to a more dominant snaredrum beat. Starting at 00:30, a variation of the Halo theme starts off with the monkish chant in time to the beat. At 00:52, the beat and chant grind to a halt and are replaced by a less regular synth beat. At 01:07, a higher synth melody arises to follow the new synth beat. At 01:15, the drumbeat starts up again. At 01:31, the chant returns, but shortly disappears again. Soon after, the drum and synth follow it, allowing the song to smoothly conclude.
It runs for 1:59.
