About Bell Orchestre

Bell Orchestre is a six-piece chamber ensemble that shares members with Montreal-based indie rock groups such as Arcade Fire and the Luyas. With influences that range from Lee "Scratch" Perry and Talk Talk to Arvo Pärt and the Penguin Café Orchestra, the mainly instrumental outfit crafts aerial slabs of classically infused post-rock that flirt with technology while remaining determinedly fluid and organic. The Orchestre have released triumphant, exploratory studio albums such as 2005 debut Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light and 2021's House Music.
