In the quest to find relaxation and reduce stress levels, people often turn to various methods.
Listening to classical music is among the most effective ways to lower cortisol, a stress hormone.
Recently, a heartwarming encounter occurred between a classical pianist and a 61-year-old elephant, resulting in tranquility.
The impact of classical music on animals can be remarkable, with dogs displaying improved obedience and cows producing more milk.
The pianist in question, Paul Barton, carefully selected a tune for the elephant as the sun descended for the evening.
Setting up a piano amidst a forest backdrop, Barton and his team created an illuminated scene to capture the moment. Mongkol, the gentle elephant, patiently stood beside the piano, waiting for the music to begin.
As Paul commenced his performance of Beethoven’s timeless masterpiece, “Moonlight Sonata,” Mongkol’s ears started to flap in response.
With each passing note, the elephant wagged his tail rhythmically and swayed his trunk in apparent enjoyment. It was evident that the captivating melody resonated deeply with the affectionate pachyderm.
The video capturing this beautiful encounter concludes with Barton embracing Mongkol warmly before bidding the elephant goodnight.
