Halo 3 OST coming Nov. 20

I'm a fan of the Halo 3 music. I think Marty O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori are two of the more ridiculously talented music folks out there.

And not only is the two-disc Soundtrack coming November 20, but it will include the Halo 3 game score, and re-orchestrated, re-recorded tracks from Halo and Halo 2.

If the following doesn't get you excited, you're probably not the audience for this post:

"... I used a twenty-four voice choir and a sixty piece orchestra for both the new music and the new arrangements of the classic music."

As if that wasn't enough, there's a Website just for the soundtrack, which has the expected track listings and logistical purchase info, but has behind the scenes documentaries and stills, artwork, downloadable sheet music, and "Marty's Playground".

Perhaps the biggest thing sliding under the wire is the announcement that a version of the Adaptive Music System created for Halo 3 will be available after December 1, which will allow you to "'score' in game footage in real-time."

Again, the OST will be available from online and brick and mortar stores November 20, and is available for pre-order now from Amazon.com.
