  • ⬇︎Read more below⬇︎ Chaichana is a powerful male elephant that lives at Elephants World in Thailand. I’ve become very close to this elephant over the past few years and seen a gentle, sensitive side to his character. From time to time, mainly late afternoon, Chaichana will stop by the piano of his own accord. Sometimes when he’s restless (as at the start of this video) he quickly relaxes to several of his preferred pieces by Greig.
    Music in this video:
    Greig “Air” from Holberg suite (excerpt)
    Greig “Arietta” from Lyric Pieces Op.12 book 1.

      This elephant seems to know the song. It really likes the low notes. The song tricks him the second time. Watch for the trunk raise. I could be totally wrong, but that’s how I saw it.

    That was one of the most beautiful, poignant things I have ever seen! There is no doubt in my mind that that sweet elephant enjoyed every second of the piano pieces. (I played for 63 years and majored in it in college and used my music everywhere we moved in our 23 years and 18 moves in the Army.). Watching that precious elephant relax and lay down in the water’s edge, wiggle his ears, smile that BIG, amazing smile, sway to the music, nibble on his trunk and just soak up every note of the lovely music left no doubt in my mind that he enjoyed every minute. What a wonderful, kind thing this lovely man is doing for these sensitive, abused creatures so they can find peace and contentment in their old age! I wept tears of joy the whole time I watched! God bless you!

PEACE WITH STRENGTH.. while all parties stand tall. While being independent with compassion to kindred for unity as Tribal.
      The struggle is real. The dark consciousness is the real cause. Laugh all you want. But it fits the world view puzzle. All the way back to sumarian tablets. It's like two parents arguing and trying to get the child to choose.

  • @pifficus1

    This elephant was most likely held captive in a city due to its restless feet. Elephants have extremely sensitive feet and depend on ground vibrations in the wild. When they are held captive in major cities, constant vehicle and foot traffic will leave lasting effects on them. Once rescued, they will be seen exhibiting this behavior.
    Hopefully the music allows it to escape the sensation that now haunts it. Free the animals!

    It's clearly possible to tell when an elephant loves a piece of music. That old boy did go from fidgety to relaxed as soon as you started playing. It was like he was thinking, Oh, I know this, I love it! I loved it when he "sang along"!
    Other eles seem to react most positively to other composers. Is it just that they love classical music (apart from jazzy Peter!) or do they genuinely have preferred composers/pieces of their own? If so, how did you discover their particular taste?

    Paul is a very talented piano player who has a huge sense of compassion for elephants. I think this is very special to watch. I love animals very much, and I also play the piano. I wish you all the best, Paul.

    All beings want to feel safe and happy. For all the atrocities we humans commit against our fellow creatures, we should at least try to give them the peace they deserve whenever and wherever possible. Boundless compassion is the only thing that can save our world.

He was so at peace with you and the music, he layed down to rest, and as I watched I was thinking he is going to fall off to sleep. His little squeaks and sounds so heartwarming.

      Sphiwo Rantabe This is an elephant sanctuary, not a circus. Sanctuaries protect and rehabilitate these beautiful creatures, often after they’ve been rescued from heinous abuse. A small bit of exploring on this man’s channel would’ve prevented you from making such an ignorant statement.
