He Led Blind Elephant Into Forest To Play The Piano. Once He Starts Playing, Her Demeanor Suddenly Changes
By Dreamer
When British pianist Paul Barton lured this kind elephant into the forest so she could heard him play, never in a million years did he expect the response that this clip reveals. Lam Duan, the 62-year-old female elephant Lam Duan has been blind for a few years now so Paul chose to do something unique for this gentle animal, performing classical music for her on his piano while she basked in the sun.
What the footage displays next goes viral online, as the blind elephant immediately became overjoyed in the moment. Swaying back and forth to a classical piece by Bach, Lam Duan reacts to the piano is subtle but obvious ways. As the chords begin to shift, so does her movement. As breathtaking as the pianist is, watching the sweet animal take in his incredible music is just as hypnotizing.
Barton explained that the blind elephant hasn't always been so calm. "I was heartbroken when I first saw Lam Duan arrive at Elephants World in 2012. She's so restless. When you play music to her, she stops being restless and is calm." Clearly his music therapy is working, and when you see the beautiful footage you understand why. See the touching moment a man plays the piano for a blind elephant in the video below - this put a tear in my eye!
