Unclassified Live: Bell Orchestre: Concert

To create House Music, Bell Orchestre wired every floor of violinist and vocalist Sarah Neufeld’s rural Vermont home.

In the 45-minute album, sculpted from a 90-minute improvisation, the ensemble set out to capture the poetry and camaraderie of a meeting between musical minds.

‘If you sliced away the front wall of the house and looked in, you’d see the horn section… on the first floor... Then you travel up a floor, and there’s me and Richie in an empty, warm-sounding wooden bedroom. Mike was on pedal steel in the bathroom... And then… in the attic, was Stefan, alone on drums,’ Neufeld explained.

Bell Orchestre shares two members with Arcade Fire: Neufeld and Richard Reed Parry (bass, vocals). They collaborate with Pietro Amato (French horn, keyboards, electronics), Michael Feuerstack (pedal steel guitar, keyboards, vocals), Kaveh Nabatian (trumpet, gongoma, keyboards, vocals) and drummer Stefan Schneider.

Bringing together electronic and classical instrumentation, they embark on an ambitious feat of musicianship with the BBC Concert Orchestra and build something vividly new.

The event also includes interviews with the ensemble, and is presented by broadcaster Elizabeth Alker. Alker co-curates the Unclassified Live series with conductor André de Ridder.
