The Great Leap is the fifth album released by composer Phideaux Xavier.

In August 2005, while putting the finishing touches on 313, Xavier returned to the studio to record the first two parts of a projected "Trilogy" of albums dealing with "Big Brother" authoritarianism and ecological crisis. Part One, The Great Leap, was released in September 2006, and Part Two, Doomsday Afternoon in 2007. Part One features shorter songs and is somewhat more of a return to the simpler song structures of Ghost Story, whereas Part Two is one long song, more akin to Chupacabras.
