Information

Montreal's fabled avant-garde outfit Bell Orchestre comes together in the beautiful Canadian woodlands to create a unique performance film. The group consists of six musical mavericks, including Arcade Fire members Sarah Neufeld and Richard Reed Parry, who continue to shift the boundaries of instrumental music with their highly anticipated new record House Music — an immersive ecosystem of an album on Envision Records (Canada) and on Erased Tapes (rest of world). With the legacies of improvisation-exploring greats like Talk Talk, The Orb, Bitches Brew-era, Miles Davis and the late Ennio Morricone in mind, on House Music, Bell Orchestre captures the impulsive, connective, mysterious poetics of musical invention happening in real-time. Both the album and this visual counterpart, directed by band member Kaveh Nabatian, unfold as one long piece, a recorded-then-sculpted improvisation that vastly expands their work, coalescing classical and electronic instrumentation in the creation of genre-defying musical worlds. Bell Orchestre is also available for live performance as a sextet or in collaboration with symphony orchestras.
