"Carol of the Bells" is a popular Christmas carol, known for its haunting, four-note ostinato motif. Its origins lie in the Ukrainian folk chant "Shchedryk," composed by Mykola Leontovych in 1914.

The American a cappella group Pentatonix released a highly popular and intricate version in the 2010s, which brought the carol to a new generation of listeners and showcased their signature vocal percussion and harmonizing style.
