Bell Orchestre is an instrumental group from Montreal. The band has ties to other bands: Arcade Fire, Torngat, The Luyas, Islands and Snailhouse. Their
music is a sort of an orchestral ambient and post-rock nature with a variety of instruments used. The music is very dynamic, flowing from highly energetic, upbeat and positive-sounding sections to mellow and somewhat melancholic passages.
The studio lineup consists of:
Richard Reed Parry (
Arcade Fire)
- upright bass/keyboard/percussion
Sarah Neufeld (

– violin
Stefan Schneider (
The Luyas)
- drums/percussion
Pietro Amato (
