Gregorian Monks Singing HALO "The Maw" in a Big Echo Chamber | A cappella from Halo 1:Combat Evolved

[@scottmatherne298]

The thing I love most about The Maw track is that there's so much weight to it. At this moment in the game, I'm immediately reminded of everything I've just been through: Captain Keyes and his sad death, the Pillar of Autumn, all the soldiers who died, the fall of Reach, and now....humanity's last hope rests with Master Chief and Cortana.

[@no_alias_for_me]

right? The first Halo campaign was fucking epic, the second one topped the first one and the third was at least on par. What a great experience from the story telling to the music, everything was one piece.

[@osmacar5331]

guess this is a Mawcapella

[@munxgregoriana]

Amazing definition of it, gonna write it down 🎵🙏

When I hear this theme I think of its Halo 2 title, "Ghosts of Reach." It sounds like a requiem for the tens of billions killed in the war

[@Reece-3601]

Billions, seriously?..

[@xALTIMETERx]

@@Reece-3601 Yes billions; Google "Human-Covenant War casualties"

[@Arpan10]

Cortana :- "This thing is falling apart!" Chief:-" It'll hold.. Cortana :-"We're not gonna make it!" Chief:- "We'll make it" Cortana:- "Pull up! Pull up! Crashes the Banshee* Master chief climps up the edge*

Your halo theme is exactly what the original was missing. Love it

[@munxgregoriana]

Thank you! We love to sing these songs

[@munxgregoriana]

If we get 10k subscribers, we will do Skyrim: Dragonborn🧙 (EDIT: Thanks to all of you💗 The production has already started, doing the arrangement and recording this month, filming next month. Our Skyrim: Dragonborn musi video is gonna be out 24.11.2023🔥🙏🏻)

[@smashinu2]

lets go!

[@scartekgaming]

after hearing this rendition [which nearly bought me tears, a hard feat to do] and seeing you guys say this, made me instantly sub - so to quote the guy above - LETS GO!

[@christophergordon6111]

How do you not have more subscribers?! Subbed. Can't wait for Dragonborn.

[@konzetsu6068]

To tease Dragonborn you should totally do Sovngarde!

[@lukebarton371]

Can we buy an album, songs? If not, is there a donate link?

[@munxgregoriana]

We accidentally removed our "The Maw" -cover from KZbin so we had do re-upload it, here you go😌 🙏 ALSO we have some good news for you, tomorrow 6th of May, we are gonna release our long-awaited a cappella cover of Temple of Time from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 😌 Also all your comments were deleted so pls comment your thoughts down below⬇

[@SLTYMILK]

I just got absolutely slammed by nostalgia hearing the first few notes That long camera shot rotating around the Autumn…

[@Zenthex]

what you are doing is pure magic, i can't tell you how much i appreciate hearing my favorite soundtracks in your style.

[@munxgregoriana]

Thank you! Most of us are gamers as well, it has been amazing to sing them🙏

[@jakecurtis3454]

I was never a big halo fan, wasn’t old enough to experience it in it’s prime years but moral of the story: how is this only at 16k views?? Awesome work, guys. Incredible voices too

[@munxgregoriana]

Thank you ✨ Maybe it will find the audience later^^

[@SphygmosProductions]

It was insane back in the day. I remember the commercials for the first game on Cartoon Network. I even went to Midnight Madness for the launch of Halo 2 and Halo 3. It was a movement. It was magical.

[@Violentic81]

343 Industries has to make the next Soundtrack with you guys. Incredible talent well put.

[@johannwic]

They've done it again. Magnificent

[@munxgregoriana]

No regrets;) Thanks!

[@wyattheitkamp55]

This should be the menu music for the next halo game. That would be amazing

[@munxgregoriana]

We are waiting for Bungie to contact us ;)✨🙏

[@eeveealpha8042]

Yay! More of these lovely monks.

[@munxgregoriana]

We will definitely do more :)!

[@Kalandaari]

As I said last time this was uploaded, every time you guys cover any Halo music, the world becomes a better place. The re-upload gives me the opportunity to re-listen to this masterpiece again, and on repeat, again.

[@munxgregoriana]

Thank you Kalandaari🙏 Great Music deserves to be performed and recorded! Hopefully you like our Temple of Time cover as well, that we just released earlier today😌🙏

[@Kalandaari]

@@munxgregoriana I did, what a performance !

[@andrewnicastro8400]

This brings a tear to my eye.

[@Crypto_Briefs_]

This sort of stuff keeps the aliens from wiping earth of humans lol

[@Thundereus]

One of my favorite game title songs well made. It is so fitting to hear this after the franchise died, or at least that it was made after Halo Infinite. *puts the game discs of Halo 1- 3 + ODST and Reach into a small coffin shaped paper box and buries it in a flower pot on the balcony*

[@devinanderson5985]

So excited for the temple of time rendition!

[@munxgregoriana]

Yeah! kzbin.info/www/bejne/larckHpmjLGLhNU

[@deanlewis1277]

easiest way to give me goosebumps is to play anything y'all upload. fantastic work as always.

[@munxgregoriana]

Thanks man, best kinda feedback we can get🙏🙏

[@navb0tactual]

I wonder if Martin O'Donnell has seen these, he usually leaves a comment

[@munxgregoriana]

Hopefully later, we think he would enjoy it a lot🙏

[@navb0tactual]

@@munxgregoriana Oh he absolutely would :)

[@sinisterisrandom8537]

Man you nailed it. The beginning part sounded identical to the original soundtrack. Still funny to think that the Maw soundtrack was all done by Marty himself.

[@jamo35]

An actual monastery won the award from Microsoft to contribute this

chills chills chills. man this is too good

This is super beautiful, I love it

"Chief... get out of here...!!" "I said get out!! That's an order!!" "Aah, AAAAAAGHGHGhh..."

Always fun to see the performance. Yeah you all are just standing there, but it adds so much still.

[@munxgregoriana]

Our pleasure! It's part of the show ;>

1:28-2:20 this sequence sounds like the monk singing in its true form

[@alecdl98]

Now we just have to wait for Marty to find this one as well and cast his blessing

[@spartan9458]

This is one of my favorite tracks from Halo 1 and it usually brings a tear to my eye on it's own. This was so well done and you brought new life to it in a way I didn't think possible. Thank you for making this. Ya'll are truly amazing!

[@disengagetattoos5074]

I just can't help, but hear the spartan suit shield beeping and cortana saying, "Chief.."

[@ElFimpo]

I feel powerless watching these men of the voice.

Incredible work guys

Thank you! :) Check out our newest video as well🙏

[@richarddutton1981]

BY FAR the best rendition of a Halo theme ive heard to date...and you did it with a fraction of the people. amazing.

[@alphagamer1802]

Holy cow this is a lot louder than the original. I like it

[@Sierra038]

Thank you. Im religious. I love and worship the the lord and the Almighty. I also love halo. To long to share here but both helped me through my lung transplant. 12 years out now. Praise be to G-d and thanks be to G-d as well for halo and the Spartan 2s.

Dude you guys should get someone on the guitar and drums and do the halo 2 theme like this. Would be epic.

[@umaprva1100]

I hope you guys make the one from halo 4 but not the menu theme, "Revival" with your voices it would be soooooo good
