The Bells is a choral symphony by Sergei Rachmaninov, composed in 1913. Scored for soloists, chorus and orchestra, the work blends late-Romantic orchestration, expansive choral writing and vivid orchestral colour, shifting between lyrical passages and turbulent climaxes and representing one of Rachmaninov's substantial large-scale vocal-orchestral compositions.
