- "This is a more character-driven piece, and its also about a planet that everyone knows will fall, and falls to the Covenant. So it's a more somber, more visceral introduction to the game that we're making."
- — Martin O'Donnell[1]
The Halo: Reach Original Soundtrack was released in stores September 28, 2010,[2] and was distributed via iTunes and Sumthing Digital on September 14.[3] There are a total of 20 tracks in the two-disk set comprising a total of 67 minutes worth of music.[4]
The soundtrack was composed by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori with help from Stan LePard and C. Paul Johnson [5], and published by Sumthing Distribution.

Trivia
- The Halo: Reach Soundtrack is one of two soundtracks that does not directly include the Halo Theme, with the other being the Halo 3: ODST Soundtrack.
- The last 8 songs on the soundtrack are not fully featured in-game. They are merely bonus tracks which appear in short clips throughout in-game campaign missions and cutscenes. From the Vault is fully featured in game, but only within the bonus Tribute Room.
- There are two known songs - "Uphill, Both Ways" and "Lone Wolf" - that did not technically make it onto the official soundtrack, but appear as MP3 files downloadable through Bungie's website. "Uphill, Both Ways" is a shortened version of "Both Ways (Remix)", while "Lone Wolf" is simply a section of the track "Winter Contingency" using the same name.
