I used to work at an exotic animal rescue center that had a lot of birds that never shut up. One time when I was working I started singing some pop and Beatles songs. Something felt weird about 10min later and I realized that for the first time in my life, the room was dead silent. All the birds had been listening to me sing. Just hope it was silence of approval! XD

1:50 I’m sorry but the dolphin in the back just spinning has me crying 😂😂😂😂

The elephant slamming random keys was too funny lol

I like how the cows stand back at a respectable distance.

It’s good to know that if I ever require a full audience I can count on the cows

The hippie hippie shake of the elephants booty was adorable.

This goes to show how important music is in everyone’s lives! I wish school boards would stop removing music from the schools!

the dolphin in the back round 😂

The fleet of dolphins synchronized swimming to the violinist was gorgeous.

How beautiful to see that music is indeed the “Universal Language”...amazing

I love that there was 2 kind of chimps, like the public at gigs, the ones that were seated, feeling the melody, and the one dancing and clapping, crazy about the rhythm.

The chimp was clapping on time too.

Seems like the belugas and elephant in the beginning of the video were mirroring the motions of the human players. Pretty interesting.

music playing to these animals proves we are all one. Music seems to transcend our differences and brings joy to all of us.

6:05 damn monke even got better moves than human

The beluga pressing its head against the glass of the tank when the guy was playing the fiddle is clear intent to listen on the part of the beluga. They don't hear quite in the same way we do, and sound doesn't translate from one medium to another very well, like air to water or air to solid. Pressing its head against the glass would help it pick up the sound better. Belugas are actually incredibly sound-oriented. As much as, if not more so, than dolphins (which they actually are not, belugas are more closely related to narwhals) Their hearing range is a bit higher pitched than ours, so violin/fiddle was a good choice. From the looks of it this one it was very interested in the sounds the man was making!

I've seen several videos where elephants seem to dance to music. Animals enjoying music fascinates me.

There is a farm some 10 km from us, they keep cows, once when passing the place I asked the driver to stop. I can sing Nessun Dorma and I performed it to the cows. All of them ran towards me and formed a beautiful row of audience. These animals really love music.

Music is the language that transcends all species.

I like how the dolphins seem to try and sing along

Animals should have music played for them at certain times to entertain them.

i love how the cows consistently all come to listen, and always stand a respectable distance

My parent's parakeet listens to classical piano every morning as part of her schedule. When she visits, I play piano for her and she loves it. When I call my mom to ask about her she is always "preening to classical music". Animals love music.

i love their reactions. it’s so damn cute. some will howl, some will bop, some will stand back and admire the beautiful sound

No matter what animal you are, music makes you want to dance. So cool how we all have the same instinct when we hear the sound of music.

So cute how all the animals try to get closer to the musicians. Music is the universal language.

Cows always look so polite when they listen to music, they seem to really enjoy it

The elephant with the piano is too precious.

MAGNIFIQUE MERVEILLEUX MERCI pour passer de votre temps à rendre heureux les animaux nos compagnons ❤❤❤

the bear one is just an abused dancing bear in a sanctuary, some of them dont stop dancing some of them just dance at the site of humans because they have been abusively trained to do so

Hats off to the ensemble that turned up in a field to a bovine audience 😆

1:50 The dolphin in the back is my brain at 3:00am

Man playing Vivaldi on his violin to the horses made me “surprise cry”.

That one dolphin spinning in a circle! Hahahaha... "You spin me right round baby right round when you play your stick when you play your funky stick."

I also love watching folks playing music to cows. They love it!

That elephant helping play the piano will never not amaze me.

Why does this make me, a stoic 64 year old man, stream tears when I see the animals enjoying the sweet sounds as much as we humans do? It shouldn't surprise me but it does to the point where my jaw dropped several times at some of the reactions. Shades of antiquity when if you heard music it had to be live. And hearing sound frequencies in certain pleasing combinations has to be an almost spiritual experience the first time you hear it.

The language of music is the only way we can easily break barriers whether to a human or to an animal.

I think music is about the only thing we do that shows them anything truly intelligent about us. Pretty much everything else we do destroys their home, their food, and their peace. I'm pretty sure something that would really impress them would be to have a live small a capella group. And not only doing cute pop, jazz or folk numbers, but complex polyphonic music...something by Josquin de Prez or Thomas Tallis (Renaissance), or a Baroque choral fugue...most people have no idea how sophisticated their hearing life actually is. Most cetacean right brain hemispheres are substantially bigger than their left; they use, perceive and process sound on MULTIPLE bandwidths.

The elephant playing and the other one was dancing good medicine for us old and sickly 😍

The cows are like -yo bro, what the f@ck's going on? -I don't know bro!

Music is the key to the universe. If there is something else put there our communication will be through music.

And all the musician have a very dedicated listener too..

Animals are so precious. We are so gifted.

We need to have more respect for animals. There's a lot more to them than meets the eye.

The elephant bopping his head to the piano playing was really digging the tune.

What a beautiful video. I like to sing when I go and stand on my balcony and it is amazing how many birds (different species) get attracted to my singing and just chill on the trees and listen for ages. Doves seem to enjoy my singing the most as they hang around until I go indoors.

when there's no audience, showcase your talents to these animals

the horse? liked the smell & sound. was rockin it

That was AMAZING, and really brightened up my day. The Belugas in particular fascinate me ❤.

When I sing, my dogs gather around and listen intently, maybe bark, yap, "talk" and howl. It's nice to know I have an appreciative audience! The chimps clapping and dancing and the walruses massing for the concert were amazing, as were the elephants dancing and playing the piano!

God's beautiful creation! Animals are so amazing! ♥️💐♥️

Now we know how we started walking upright. Someone had a steel drum. 🤣

I work one summer (I was 46 years old) as a tour guide for a tourist attraction in north central Arkansas. Part of my job was to feed the animals living at the mini farm, including the geese. Once they had eaten their fill, I would begin walking down to the pond in their enclosure. As the geese waddled toward me, I would begin singing “OH, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNING.” By the time I had sung the chorus and two verses twice, the geese all had their heads tucked under their wings, and were sound asleep. I always felt empowered that I could make the noisy geese go to sleep by singing to them!🪽🪿

The chimp had me totally dead

Animals and muisic make life worth living.

That's why I loved the movie close encounters of the 3rd kind as when we finally make contact with an alien species the most logical thing we could do to show our intelligence and kindness is to play something pleasing to the ear to our guest who we can't verbally converse with, like we do with animals and they all seem to love it

I literally just tried this in my house, I have 3 cats 2 dogs. 2 cats and a dog came into the room as soon as I started playing an old harmonica my sister brought me as a gift from Alcatraz Isle, one cat started singing with my untrained sound playing LOL.

Music is what unites us all. Even animals!

I love how that one elephant was bopping its head and trying to play along and the horse was just so sucked into the music

So if attacked in the wild, forget bear spray, play music!

The music is calming to them❤

The power of music cannot be overestimated. It is obviously a true universal language. Also, we constantly underestimate the intelligence and souls of animals.

good job the elephant hasnt seen how jerry lee lewis plays great balls of fire with his feet

These musicians are really blessed ones as the animals find joy beyond anybody's imagination. This is really a harmony with which one could find divinity in nature.

Guy: Playing violin. Horse: Headbanging.

Therapy for all of us old and sickly.

Isn't that amazing we're not the only animals, to love music. 🤔

More reason to show love and respect for animals rather than exploit, abuse, torture, imprison, slaughter these sentient, innocent, trusting souls.

This really demonstrates that the statement which says music is a language is true. We thought that would only apply to humans but it’s a universal language. All animals certainly can hear and enjoy it. Incredible ❤

Beluga's, dolphin's, elephant's, ape's is it a coincidence that these are amongst some of the most intelligent mammals on the planet?

They're all cute but those elephants really surprised me.

It is the most beautiful thing I've seen. Make smile.

So, so beautiful. The reaction of the Beluga whale to the music moved me to tears ..... 😏

Absolutely in love with this video❤️❤️❤️

Amazing ❤ the one chimp was dancing and clapping. Animals are the best❤️

Thank you for this beautiful video it made me laugh at all the beautiful animals enjoying the music. How could we not love each and every one of them . Blessing to all that gave them moments of peace and happiness 😊

Just imagine for a moment you're a cow in a field. One day, 17 weird looking cows come into your field and play a concert for you... You don't know what music is, you don't know where these weird cows came from, but you and your cow friends absolutely love it.

It had me in tears. These are Gods creatures. WOW

It would be so cool if these places played music for all their animals. It wouldn’t cost that much.

I love how animals love music!! It's so wonderful to watch their reactions.

Thanks for reminding us all of who we really are.

More people should do this.

Maravilloso!!! La música nos conecta ❤

Love it all. So did they. Thank you very much 🎶🎶👌🏼❤️

The elephants and the piano! That bubble booty gettin' down, lol.

Music is a universal language!

In seeing their beauty, we should do all we can to have them set FREE!

Isn't it lovely how God made our animal friends. Beautiful video.

The elephants grooving to boogy woogy piano was my favorite!

The elephant shaking his booty was my fav!

The chimps, beluga’s and elephants 💚💚💚💚💚just wow

Monkey at 5:18 be like: Yeah bro! Let him cook!

Harmonics! Universal language, rhythm, & beats! 😂

Music truly does soothe the 'savage' beast!

The horses and bagpipes, I swear I saw a horn on its head for just a spark of a moment.

Well, music is supposed to sooth us savage beasts! And, dancing has healing properties! lol

Love, LOVE, L O V E The cows @2:04. "Gotta get a good listening position, we in for something special here!"

all these animals talking to their friends like “u wont believe what sound this animal on the otherside of the glass sounds like”

All God's creatures react to music ....even plants! 🥰 I once had a potted asparagus fern that would actually grow towards the music, especially Beethoven! ..You could actually see it growing towards the record player! (Yeah...that was a long time ago...a record player. 😉)
