Beethoven for Bull Elephant with Behind-The-Scenes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 июл 2021
- In this video I included a few extra behind-the-scenes clips to show how Mongkol, a bull elephant, would walk along the river bank in the early evening to the piano and wait. I needed to be absolutely sure Mongkol was waiting for music of his own accord before I played to him. Mongkol was free to stay and listen or to walk away at any time.
To be trusted and befriended by an elephant is no small thing. Two gentle souls, beautiful.
Comme quoi la musique adoucit les moeurs ! Même chose pour les grosses bébêtes......Merci à cet homme qui apporte de la douceur dans la vie de ces mastodontes....mais pauvre piano au milieu de cet environnement humide il ne tiendra pas longtemps 🥴
Zeal is a second name and tune for love = do not lose that zeal
Just imagine what kind of place the world would be if everyone was even half as nice as him.
Then nature would be overrun by piano's, violins, cellos, guitars, Great-Pipe Church Organs, piccolos, recorders (what BS is that, recorders??? I tried so many times to record anything on them, NADA. Lying pricks, them recorder makers. BAAAAAAAH!!!!!! Went back to my ol' good Revox PR99 MKII. That at least DOES record.)
Agreed.
Agreed.
It would be heaven on earth.
@@HBLADY all them instruments dumped in a forest?
Not my kind of Heaven, really. :P
One of the most beautiful things I've seen. The relationship he builds with these beautiful beings is heartwarming.
Agreed.
The pastoral setting, the loving pianist, the intelligent elephant bring tears of joy to the eyes. Thanks!!🐘❤🎵
And the heart
Finally some goodness in the world; treating other non human animals with the love and respect they deserve
Mi piace l’espressione “ altri animali non umani “!!
That's right! We're all Earthlings.
yes
I am dazzled by the patience and attentiveness of the elephant. As a professional musician, this creature is much more calm than some of our audience members.
Elephant just fill me with wonder .and the creulty they r subjected to by man makes me feel ill.
Beautifully Put....You Are 100% Right. ❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️
haha the elephant is not coughing and sneezing while hes playing
Stunning !! the investment in time and kindness is simply wonderful.
"As a professional musician, this creature is much more calm than some of our audience members."
I didn't know that this elephant was a professional musician.
I mean, some of them are good amateur trumpetists, but not professionals.
Maybe that's why he is so attentive.
The world needs more people like you.
Elephant rested his trunk after waiting patiently. I love this
This made me very happy, and that just doesn't happen easily in this day and age we live.

The innocence of animals makes me weep. They ask for so little
Paul uttered maybe 4 or 5 words to this majestic elephant, but his actions spoke much louder. The beauty of the music started a bond between them and then, by the simple act of chopping some foliage for the elephant, another need was met - and the elephant knew it. Walking off together at the end was so simple but beautiful. A trust was formed out of sheer kindness. Is it any wonder why people get so much joy from a beloved pet as opposed to this very unkind world? I never get tired of seeing videos like these. Paul, you are a treasure!
This video brings so much tranquility to my soul. Music + nature, what a perfect match.
Elephants are so adorable
Fun fact: Elephants have neurons in their brain that light up the same way the same or equivalent neurons in our brain light up when we see a dog. In other words, elephants think of us as cute, and they truly are such majestic creatures indeed.
Water in the river running and music floàting.there are garmony.and birds singing.
@@iangreer4585 that's 100% false, stop spreading lies 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm crying @ end when they walk away together how beautiful
I thought that there were no such harmonious people on the vast earth.Artist, musician, happy and loving husband and father.
I'm amazed.Thank you.
Paul, you are an AMAZING musician and a great man---playing for these great souls!!! God bless you many times over!!!!
👏👏👏🤓
This is precious beyond belief. I imagine that this elephant has had a hard life and was traumatised in some way (correct me if I am wrong) - and now his consolation and peace comes from this kind and loving human who plays music for the elephant’s (and our) soul.
By far and away the best elephant concert I have seen. Also, the elephant was totally digging this.
I wish I could hug an elephant I don't think I would ever let go 💕🙏
The first piece I learned when restarting piano 4 years ago. I don't get to play for elephants though. What a great experience! Thanks Paul.
What’s the name of that piece?
Puoi sempre suonare per un gatto, un cane, per gli uccelli intorno a te, per gli alberi…apprezzano sicuramente!

Mendelssohn?

What a beauty.......it´s all connected...we ....creatures on this planet..humans, animals, nature..everything is connected...you can feel and see just here!! THANK YOU Mr. Barton!!
Agreed.
ポールさん ゾウさんは、貴方がたくさん 優しくしてくれた事を 決して忘れないでしょう。ありがとうございます。🌸🌸
There is so much love and respect shared between man and elephant, that it reaches the audience with a perfect sigh of love and peace. No chains, no one beating the elephant with sticks, just a shared connection of trust.
Such a wonderful moment to end my relaxing evening. Thank you. ❤
Two beautiful souls in this world
Glad they know each other
Natalia is a nice name for this noble elephant that I think she lost one and a half task to pouchers . Human sins stay after they are gone.
Bless you both always ❤
Everyone is obviously talking about their relationship but the music deserves credit too. Beethoven is just so good
I love the immense sense of calm the elephant has, matched by Paul's calm. Resting his trunk on the mound in complete relaxation and appreciation of this beautiful music. And then eating quietly with Paul, his friend, at this side. This is beautiful.
Interesting. I thought you used wild pianos that grow naturally in the jungle.
Cute.
The piano very heavy,to pull it dont easy throu jungle.
This is good
@@C4pt41nN3m0 this is better
Wonderful! The elephant listens intently and seems to be really touched.- it would have been a deeply impressive experience for him. Thanks.
And you’d think the piano was small. 🐘🎹 What a wonderful experience for both of them !!
No words, just music...and an elephant.
This is the way it was supposed to be in the beginning of time. It's good to see a human and a animal get along so well. And if you noticed when he played the calm tune. It soothed the elephant. Beautiful
Thank you for playing the piano for the elephant , that is so kind of you!!!
Thank you for caring for this old guy.
This fed my soul. I so envy you this privilege. Elephants are my soul animal and I feel so many things, things I cannot put into words. What a gift. Thank you for sharing.
I think you said it beautifully.... I can never think of what to express about Paul's work&Elephant Nature Park's(EleFlix) work either. So, I'll write: Agree 💯 Theresa. 🐘💜🐘🙏🏽🐘🙏🏽💜
it’s the elephant literally singing on the beat with you for me. much love.
Pleasant sound of the river. I’m relaxing from 🏙
I'm blessed by the music, the elephant & the man. Their peace shared.
I don't even have the words to describe how precious and beautiful this video is. The Patience Paul shows is just nonexistent in todays world. The Tenderness, Love & Care- rare indeed!
Sending you much Love 💝 and Thanks Paul for sharing your great love for these Elephants🐘🎶💝 Brightest Blessings to you 💝🐘😎🌏 ~ i love that song 🎶 ~
The most tender, heartwarming video was Daddy Paul playing piano and most precious baby was Emelie inside a little cradle with orange blanket? Deosn't matter as I'm sure was soft and cuddly as you played for her as she grew up listening to her daddy play a new song each year. What a blessed gift and NOW a double gift as she's playing along with her daddy.
Emilee, YOU are beyond blessed with unconditional love and talent gifted to you,,,,is something millions of dollars couldn't buy such a precious gift....and now you're growing up far too fast... Where oh where has that time Gone?
I'm sure that you Cherish those precious memories you've made over the time spent practicing....and learning scales...oyeee, those dreaded but necessary scales
Thank you for taking the time to share this. Watching them walk away into the distance side by side absolutely gets you right there.
Conversation: 🐘 next time come earlier. I was waiting and when you came you took forever to begin. Thanks though. And afterwards can we have some fruit with our greens. See you later Paul
OH how majestic, yet how humble and loving. I am very much moved by this. Thank you Paul Barton.
This is the most beautiful thing I have seen,I have goose bumps.This man is an angel.
I never get tired of watching these. Glad they’re popping up again.
2023 Now...Mongkol looking as magnificent as the last I saw him, he has such a gentle heart for a big bull elephant full of love & trust for you. Adore the way Mongkol rests his trunk on the embankment while you play a Beethoven's piece of beautiful music which Mongkol definitely enjoyed. I'm quite sure he would never walk away while you are playing the piano that he loves so much with the air filled with a beautiful sound. Wow getting the piano to where you will both meet up is quite the exercise in more ways than one but totally understand Mongkol is most worthy of it. Thanks for sharing your lovely video. ❤️🐘❤️🐘❤️
This is amazing. This video made me tear up a bit. God bless you and your team, and thank you for the kindness you put in this world.
Paul knows how to talk to elephants and how to get them as friends🤩❤
Lucky elephant and pure soul of this person, what a beautiful sight!!❤❤❤
The bull elephant was so still, his tail didn't move! He seemed emotional like he was remembering things in his life. I love this.
I’m extremely jealous of the fact you can play piano and also commune with my favourite animal. I teared up when I first heard this Beethoven piece many years ago and do so now at this humbling scene.
A lot of work goes into these elephant concerts, but it’s all worth it because they enjoy the music so much! Thanks Paul. Your audience enjoys watching too!❤️
Possibly one of the most appreciative audiences he has had. each respects the other, beautiful.
I love to see and hear videos of musicians playing to animals, who are so appreciative.
Thank you for sharing your gift of music with the Elephants & all who enjoys listening to your beautiful music & watching these beautiful videos!
Serenity.. calming music with Natural sounds of the Wild!
God Bless You & all who helped to make this video!
Love ya❤️🐘
Ah Paul no words so emotional I feel your feelings so strongly. Music and sentiments. Bless you. Truly bless you. X
Paul, so beautiful and loving..Tears to my eyes of happiness watching you play music for the Bull elephant, who knows your kindness. I love all of your videos. You & family ! Beautiful soul you are,
It's so good to see another video of you playing for the elephants. These musical moments are what brought me to your channel many months ago. Now, I watch to see Emilie, as well. Thank you for letting us into your world with the elephants, the monkeys, and your elderly Sunday. Many smiles to you from Oklahoma, USA.
So beautiful brought tears to my eyes that man could be at one with nature.
🧚🏻♀️I’ve always loved these gentle giants. Paul thank you for caring for them, you make a difference.🐘💖
Beautiful. Equals in Friendship. There is peace in my soul.

This is so moving I just dont know how to process this elephants demeanor. Its so special.
I cried when I first found Paul. Haven’t seen him in a while, but that soulful tenderness returned. The elephants are so appreciative and understanding. Great video! Thank you.
🌈✨💕yes , I have also tears of joy in my eyes and thank Paul Barton for showing us his way of giving love and understanding to this very special elephant
I must confess, you're a gentleman and scholar,you treat these gentle giant s with love and compassion, my wife loves elephants , has numerous statures of elephants,birds,a great animal lover,keep up the piano playing,soothing to wild beast.
Mongkol is loving every second of this!
the ability to communicate in a language other creatures can relate to - what a beautiful gift
Thank you Paul, for sharing your world with me! And allowing me to peek inside to a place of wonder so far away! The elephant becomes more a more beautiful to me because of your videos! Also, at 55, almost 56, I have started piano lessons! Many blessings to you and your family, in Jesus Name 🌺🌺🌺🌺💜
That is marvelous jm. So pleased about this. Older students are the best students to me. The most committed. Enjoy!!🎶🎶😁

This video just show the world how peaceful our world can be 😢
Immer wieder zauberhaft ...die Interaktion zwischen Mensch und Tier ❤
Love you🎃
Wow. Just wow. Thank you Paul. 🥰❤ Just like Schroeder from Peanuts.
I play this often at home and eveytime the birds begin to sing. Animals love classical music.
Onvoorstelbaar danksy deze opname te zien en te genieten in wzc nl 92 jaar hartelijke dank !!!!
Thank you for your work sir it is a privilege to see.
Beautiful man magnificent beast in harmony with a piano. Put a tear in my eye of joy.
So sweet to se men (people) who care about intelligent animals. I always wondered who pay for that idealistic work -- but at the same time I think "Money is not able to pay for idealism", and since the first elephant videos I was aware that here we see true human idealism! ❤
I love this place. Their mission is truly inspiring ...and thoughtful. Thanks from southern Colorado today! (It inspires me with all my art projects as well that I can. ) Yup. 🐣🦁🦋🐛
Folks, Paul takes good care of his 19 year old dog too. A great man!
I grew up playing the piano. My two favorite songs to play were “ Dance of The Rosebuds” and “25 or 6 to 4”. Two songs that couldn’t be further apart. I loved all things “Nutcracker” as I was also a young ballerina. I think they would enjoy “Dance of The Rosebuds” more than the later. That was many years ago. However, I can not help myself if I pass a piano, I have to sit and play. But would love to have played for elephants. It would be a dream come true. Lucky elephants and lucky man. Thank you for the back scenes. This made it even more special for me to watch this particular video. Thank you Paul. You are a beautiful human. ❤🌹
At a time in my life with the loss of several loved ones, these videos bring me peace. I wish all people showed compassion to animals like the pianist
respect and love, so strong.
A legcsodálatosabb teremtménye a Földnek !!!! Tiszteletem a férfinek, aki zenél, hogy Ő, az elefánt örülhessen.❤
no way that beautiful creature doesn`t understand. He has wise eyes and he enjoyed what you do for him, Sir.
Now 6am and maybe I can finally drift off to sleep with your beautiful music and those elephants in my troubled mind. They were clearly loving every moment. Thank you. x
Enchanting ❤❤ calm, soothing and just so peaceful... the beauty must be in his 50s, I'm so happy he's one of the blessed elephant's 😊❤.
Danke sehr, dass ich dieses Video sehen durfte. Es hat mich tief bewegt. Alles Liebe allen Beteiligten. 🌸💓🍀💓
Omg this so cute, i love. And the peace that shows that greath animal
I so wish you could perform with a stringed quartet for the elephants!
DIOS MI AMADO PADRE PROTEJE ESTE BENDITO PLANETA Y A TODOS MIS HERMANITOS MENORES GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS PADRE QUE ME ESCUCHAS 🙏💜💜💜
This is the best of humanity. ❤️💙❤️💙❤️
What a tremendous undertaking! Thank you🙏
Want to say so much for what you and the people with you are doing for these beautiful animals, your kindness, love and passion along with the music from a live piano in nature is so lovely and just shows how far a little love and compassion from the heart can calm or cure any soul may it be human or animal....
All of us need to give love and be loved even from the smallest or tallest of creatures....
Weldon to all who care xx

@@MariaEugenia-ol2xdem outro vídeo onde ele toca "Moonlight Sonata" de Beethoven, tem um comentário que diz que o elefante é cego, devido aos maus tratos que ele sofreu anteriormente, e o elefante 🐘 também chora no final da música 🎶.😢.
