"Here is a violinist and if you look over there in the corner you can see a male with an acoustic guitar attempting to attract a mate with the classic mating call 'Wonderwall'."
True here in India we have stories of Lord Krishna playing flute and not just Godess Radha mesmerised but all animals used to flok around and walk by him as he played it
What I like to think is that “music is the universal language”, since it is very obviously overwhelming that this lovely Beluga(and his friend in the back) understood what this man was communicating. How beautiful! Music can truly be enjoyed by all
The interesting thing is though is that the sound is totally distorted by the man playing the violin behind the glass. The beluga would get a totally different listening experience if it’s head were actually above the waterline.
I'm a guitarist/composer/arranger,and that violinist makes me wish we could collaborate. Every note is just delectible! And I was a Nightwatchman at the Cleveland Zoo for 30 years. It ended up being a perfect combination. I fell deeply in love with my job. Our animal kindred,let me assure you,have a vibrant inner world like us. They love,feel lonely, grieve and even laugh. Don't ever underestimate them. A few weeks ago,I sat and played guitar on my upstairs porch. A chipmunk stopped by for birdseed,but then she stopped,and just sat and listened. You'll see many more clips on TH-cam of animals stopping and listening. I'm convinced that our relationship with Nature is changing,for something better,deeper and with much more loving kindness.
I don’t think humanity’s getting any better with nature, unfortunately, but I do know that animals have all the emotions you talked about, and then some. Humans didn’t get our emotions out of nowhere - we evolved with them from our ancestors, which were others animals with emotions.
I love how he floated up to get some air while pressing his head to the glass. Never looked away and his flippers barely moved. This speaks both to the power of music and bright minds out there in the natural world. We can find common ground 😅
I know this is 8 years ago, but, I still cried. HARD. You are a beautiful Human and beautiful whale. Tears of joy from a lady that loves all living things. I adore you both. ❤️
The beluga certainly was mesmerized! I loved when it kept pressing its mouth afterwards, like "kisses for you, my friend." And the one in the back looked like he/she(?) was dancing. Such gorgeous, intelligent beings. Beautiful. ❤
It's amazing how music is a universal language. No matter what language you speak or if you're even human. Everyone and everything communicates with sound.
At this point I'm pretty sure it's way sadder for beluga whales in the wild that have to deal with ocean pollution and human dangers, than the one kept in nice and well cared for zoo environments
I’ve watched so many videos of people playing different instruments for different animals. I always love their reaction to music. And oh so nice of the people playing for animals. It’s totally awesome!
You could see the Beluga feeling the music! He was moving his head and fins the way I do when I feel a piece of music… Lovely. And the Beluga in the background was dancing.
Beautiful!…God has a way with using animals to make us smile…felt the true love and beauty in this video…maybe God was sending his love and appreciation through this man and baluga whale connection…🥰🥰🥰
It had just finished taking a breath when he stopped. The sound was probably different when it had broken the surface, so it might have missed the experience of some of the song.
. . . " Most animals ... are better than most people " I was told by a remarkable mentor , guide and true ' mountain man ' ( Are you still out there , Duncan Martin? ) I did not quite ... 'get it' in my mid-teens , I do so now and have done for a long time , over 4 decades on . You said so little but taught me so much ... " up hill and down dale "
That was awesome! He was fascinated. You can see the wheels turning. He really enjoyed it, but he wanted to know what the sounds was. It's the very first time he's ever heard music 🎶 in his life (assuming this is the first time someone has played music for him). Imagine it's the first time you ever heard it. Beautiful animal, awesome people are kind enough to do this. Great great video!
Belugas are such cute and lovely whales, the cutest of all. And this adorable beluga sure knows how to appreciate great music. Awww, so beautiful and fascinating about a violinist and a sweet beluga whale. Great video full of beauty. Thank you for sharing it, it is enjoyable. ♥️♥️😍♥️😍♥️😍♥️😍♥️♥️🥰♥️😍
It touches me. It shows again that there is so much more than trouble in the world. We need moments we can share. And may be never forget. Thank you for showing us this outstanding moment in life.
LOL, this! At first I thought the beluga wanted a higher view of the violin-playing human, but then I saw the surface of the water, then I was like, oh! it needed to breathe!
Belugas use echolocation to navigate their environments. Because of this, their brains process sound like ours process vision. This beluga can actually "see" the sounds the violin makes.
@Alchemist sorry to half piss on your parade, though this evidence isn't directly useful with it not being about a beluga. It is however still about a cetacean: www.researchgate.net/publication/279942430_Diffusion_tensor_imaging_of_dolphin_brains_reveals_direct_auditory_pathway_to_temporal_lobe This proves that atleast dolphins have a direct link between what you complained they didn't or lack of evidence there of. Is this sufficient enough evidence to possibly bring the conversation about to one of, dolphins and whales "might" see echolocation clicks similarly to how we perceive light through our retina.

Sir, I just wanted to say thank you VERY MUCH INDEED for entertaining that TRULY MAGNIFICENT animal. With my VERY BEST wishes, Julie Gill, Glasgow, Scotland.
Just like people have different interest, animals have different interest. The others animals were not interested, but look how focused this cute pie was. I was expecting him to move along, but even after the music stopped he stood there. I really love animals. They are so precious and innocent like children.
And then humans are saying animals do not have souls and can't have feelings. At the end, you can be the biggest ingenior of the world, if you do not have compassion and love for humans, animals and the Earth itself, then you are just a stupid human.
@@IamIsaiah144 I don't know about other animals but I can definitely confirm 1000% that cats do not feel remorse or regret , even when you yell and show them the pictures for the insurance claim from their 3 second high-speed catfight. Gotta luv em.

I know these whales! The one watching the violinist is Juno (the silly in the background is Kela). I had the privilege of getting to meet Juno up close and pet him, learn about him, and even take part in his enrichment. He absolutely loves humans and is completely fascinated by us, perhaps as much as we are by him. He’s incredibly playful and curious and loves when musicians visit or anyone else he thinks particularly interesting. He’s an amazing creature and I miss him very much, it’s so wonderful to see these videos of him and his friends in mystic. Also for anyone complaining, he and Kela were captive bred. They can’t live in the wild. Mystic Aquarium is not only a haven fir captive bred or rescued animals but a research center - the workers will document his health and behavior as well as Kela’s and use it to help understand and save their wild counterparts. It was also requested that the whale facility become part of the aquarium as Mystic has a rich history with whaling, and because the local Native tribe (the Mashantucket Pequot people) have a love and admiration for whales - whales are sacred to many tribes.
Fun fact: the ‘bump’ on a Beluga’s head is called the Melon and is used to aid in its receiving of echolocating pulses the Beluga or it’s companions may make, so when the Beluga starts pressing its head against the glass it’s akin to a person pressing their ear to a closed door or a wall to hear the other side better, they are really listening keenly!
Yes… The senses of animals are more acute.. I’m pretty sure the beluga heard him play.. ❤ and I think it meant so so much to the wonderful violinist who seems confined to his chair..
@@Automedon2 I would rather say, a Human making the day better for a captive. That was a bright moment in this narrow life i assume. I wish him freedom and I wish him a concert everyday.
Beluga are not only extremely intelligent, they are interested in humans and their activities. I was able to interact with them years ago. In the bird world, Cedar Waxwings are the same. Interact well with humans, and actually like them.( not sure why) Music is an all species language.
If anyone's curious, cetaceans basically hear sound through their jawbone, so sweet Juno there was pressing his snoot against the glass so he could hear better!
If I could play a portable instrument like that, I would go there every day and play for them. Look at how happy that sweet animal is; not just bybthe music, but by the connection. ❤
You do realise that is how it breathes right? It leaned forward just so that it could take oxygen. It’s a mammal unlike a fish. But it’s definitely intrigued by the music....
@Joseph Anand ...it's taking oxygen from the glass? also nobody is saying that isn't how it breathes, the person just said that they thought it was cute
@Frost Flower same, maybe you just don't know how to listen. It sounds passionate, I'll give him that, but there's a few slip ups and that really hurts when it's only one violin playing
Just goes to show how intelligent they are. And the fact that he stayed there and listened to the whole thing is so cool! That they have a great attention span. They’re capable of great emotion.❤
Everyone asking about if he could hear it through the glass, as it's a vibration and whales are very sensitive to vibrations I think he heard it perhaps more deeply than we could perceive with our decibel perception range. He was clearly very captivated up until violin dude stopped.
Beluga whales have a sonar bruh they click noise underwater it travels around bounces off shit like creatures for food and rocks and ish and then bounces back and is collected in the lower jaw as information
So thick glass isn't sound proof?...stop that disneyfication of animals...its maybe interested by the movement...any food here? No.no food...swim another round in this mind numbing basin....

I always liked what Santori said in Amadeus about Mozarts music
He said Mozart was merely a messenger, and the music he wrote was the voice of god
Classic music is not all
Cows also love music
The interesting thing is though is that the sound is totally distorted by the man playing the violin behind the glass. The beluga would get a totally different listening experience if it’s head were actually above the waterline.
The beluga is probably like: “My great grandmother told me about this sound when she was watching the Titanic sink.”

And then humans are saying animals do not have souls and can't have feelings.
At the end, you can be the biggest ingenior of the world, if you do not have compassion and love for humans, animals and the Earth itself, then you are just a stupid human.
@@IamIsaiah144 I don't know about other animals but I can definitely confirm 1000% that cats do not feel remorse or regret , even when you yell and show them the pictures for the insurance claim from their 3 second high-speed catfight. Gotta luv em.
No one’s gonna talk about the whale just vibing in the back?
Well he just broke up with his gal few days back,and this music makes him even sadder
1:30 he just e n t e r s 😂😂
Tig ol' Bitties if you think those are insults, you are an obvious poorly educated child and need to start using your heart and brain and grow up a little.
@@Cassxowary Look you can be gay, you can be closeted, or you can be a virgin. But if you're all 3 then that's just sad and I feel bad for your parents
@@sandippaul468 I feel bad for the beluga's friend
I love belugas. They are so playful and smart and cute
❤❤❤❤
This made me cry…. Incredibly beautiful. Thank you for sharing.❤️
This is just a proof that Music is a universal language..
So true. Animals are not much different from species to species. Humans think we are superior. I don't agree.
Agreed 100%
@@tana5098 superior by intelligence but by spirit, I would disagree as well
I mean... technically music, as we know it, is unique to humans.
@@jht3fougifh393 you mean by enjoying it? Definitely not, plenty of animals enjoy it
I know these whales! The one watching the violinist is Juno (the silly in the background is Kela). I had the privilege of getting to meet Juno up close and pet him, learn about him, and even take part in his enrichment. He absolutely loves humans and is completely fascinated by us, perhaps as much as we are by him. He’s incredibly playful and curious and loves when musicians visit or anyone else he thinks particularly interesting. He’s an amazing creature and I miss him very much, it’s so wonderful to see these videos of him and his friends in mystic.
Also for anyone complaining, he and Kela were captive bred. They can’t live in the wild. Mystic Aquarium is not only a haven fir captive bred or rescued animals but a research center - the workers will document his health and behavior as well as Kela’s and use it to help understand and save their wild counterparts. It was also requested that the whale facility become part of the aquarium as Mystic has a rich history with whaling, and because the local Native tribe (the Mashantucket Pequot people) have a love and admiration for whales - whales are sacred to many tribes.
Thanks for sharing!
I love comments like this! so nice to know more about a video :) thanks for sharing
Thank you!
That's awesome :D
Thankyou for telling us about this cutie. I hope he enjoyed the music and told all his friends
absolute pleasure to read this comment
The beluga in the background scared me because it looked so weird and uncanny, until I realised it was just moving upside down lmao
How beautiful, I felt peaceful and calm watching this. Amazing connection between the two. I must admit it touched me deeply ❤❤❤
Guy: **plays violin like a pro**
Beluga: .___.
Beluga: :3

Pro is a bit of stretch but it sounds good!
Fun fact: the ‘bump’ on a Beluga’s head is called the Melon and is used to aid in its receiving of echolocating pulses the Beluga or it’s companions may make, so when the Beluga starts pressing its head against the glass it’s akin to a person pressing their ear to a closed door or a wall to hear the other side better, they are really listening keenly!
The look on the whale's face says it all , happiness
Oh yeah that Beluga loved it
Yes… The senses of animals are more acute.. I’m pretty sure the beluga heard him play.. ❤ and I think it meant so so much to the wonderful violinist who seems confined to his chair..
@@MsHSpring yes there was a momentary bond shared there and not gonna lie, moistened my eyes a bit lol
Since they communicate by sound must be mesmerized by an unusual sound 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
shed some tears because of this beautiful beautiful moment, thank you for uploading this...
Hands down, Best video I've seen in a long time. Touching. Thank You.
Title should've been: Humans memserized by Beluga mesmerized by Human playing violin.
Or: Just another human doing a douchebag thing in front of a captive
@@Automedon2 Fuck off commie.
@@Automedon2 That was real...
@@Automedon2 I would rather say, a Human making the day better for a captive. That was a bright moment in this narrow life i assume. I wish him freedom and I wish him a concert everyday.
Yes.
The beluga in the background was just vibing and I couldn't help laughing as he slowly drifted out of frame upside down
LOL YES someone said it was doing a "contemporary swim" and that comment made me laugh so much
Bruh i cant stop laughing now 😂😂😂😂🤣
Beluga are not only extremely intelligent, they are interested in humans and their activities. I was able to interact with them years ago.
In the bird world, Cedar Waxwings are the same. Interact well with humans, and actually like them.( not sure why) Music is an all species language.
I don't know who's enjoying the music more; the beluga paying rapt attention; or the one in back doing an interpretive dance.
If anyone's curious, cetaceans basically hear sound through their jawbone, so sweet Juno there was pressing his snoot against the glass so he could hear better!
Yea, the sad thing is it probably sounds super muffled from the glass, if only there was a room with accoustic transfer in mind
I may be projecting, but it almost seems like the creature is 'feeling' out the notes and tempo with a slight delay. Beautiful
They all really are impressed by the music. They should have music 🎶 every day.
If I could play a portable instrument like that, I would go there every day and play for them. Look at how happy that sweet animal is; not just bybthe music, but by the connection. ❤
There’s something very mystical of the way they swim. Like an ancient people who chose the water instead of the land and now swim forever like spirits
Wow what a thought brother.
That’s close to what happened. Whale ancestors were once land-dwelling mammals that chose to go back into the water.
Beautiful & poetic.
Derek No wonder people thought they (and the sea cows) were mermaids!
Ok, Joe Rogan.
Anyone else notice when he surfaced for air he still stayed underwater to maintain eye contact? That was beautiful
Stop 😭😭😭….it was…
Yo wtf a fish need AIR they live in WATER fake liberal media lying to us
And it kind of mashed its adorable, squishy head! ❤
“Excuse me, I must take a breath”
are they snacks in Japan??
They are the sweetest babies ❤😊
That was beautiful! Music really is a universal language across all species! ❤
When the beluga pressed its head against the window. So cute the soft spot. Like a big marshmallow baby.
MzYum YUM699 my heart just melted when I saw that!!!!🥺🥰❤️
Yes,is sooo cute 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕👻💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
You do realise that is how it breathes right? It leaned forward just so that it could take oxygen. It’s a mammal unlike a fish. But it’s definitely intrigued by the music....
@Joseph Anand ...it's taking oxygen from the glass?
also nobody is saying that isn't how it breathes, the person just said that they thought it was cute
@@magma1264 you need to google how a Dolphin Breathes.
Every comment is about the beluga, so I'll write about this guy : the way he played the violin is amazing 😍
It was very good.
Not really tbh
Not really
@Frost Flower same, maybe you just don't know how to listen. It sounds passionate, I'll give him that, but there's a few slip ups and that really hurts when it's only one violin playing
@@theformoverfunction if you think youre better than him, just prove it. there are a lot of imposter in the internet
I am amazed how incredibly moved I am by this beautiful video. Thank you.
Just goes to show how intelligent they are. And the fact that he stayed there and listened to the whole thing is so cool! That they have a great attention span. They’re capable of great emotion.❤
Everyone asking about if he could hear it through the glass, as it's a vibration and whales are very sensitive to vibrations I think he heard it perhaps more deeply than we could perceive with our decibel perception range. He was clearly very captivated up until violin dude stopped.
Beluga whales have a sonar bruh they click noise underwater it travels around bounces off shit like creatures for food and rocks and ish and then bounces back and is collected in the lower jaw as information
So it definitely heard
@@AM-fh7ek sound is vibration......
David Thomas Well, it’s like they say, “you can’t touch music, but music can touch you.”
And you could see him/her pressing his/her nose and forehead up against the glass, maybe to hear more clearly.
This musician plays so beautifully. He could not ask for a more appreciative audience. Communion transcends language.
Patricia Alley I think communion is a catholic ritual
You mean good vibrations transcends species.
Well said Patricia.
So thick glass isn't sound proof?...stop that disneyfication of animals...its maybe interested by the movement...any food here? No.no food...swim another round in this mind numbing basin....
@@KoiYakultGreenTea Nah, it's a human ritual and existed long before catholicism.
That is just so sweet.. I think he didn't want you to stop
Just came across this, how beautiful brought a tear to my eyes😢 .
No one:
Beluga: “Can you play My Heart Will Go On?”
Not The City HQ didn‘t see that coming 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I've never appreciated how bored animals must get in a zoo until quarantine😢
Boy o boy you right... We should stop Zoos.
@@mickymouse2445 Yes! Stop the zoos, stop the conservation efforts to save our endangered animals! Down with the authoritarian anti-animal regime! Add animals to our constitutions! Give them the vote! Release them all into the wild and let them die because they literally cannot fend for themselves!
Brought to you by the Sarcasm Towards Idiots That Think All Zoos Are Bad Association.
They not too bored they said There's a increasing number of babies being born so, they are staying busy
@@ElusiveTy If people wanted to protect animals they would be in sanctuaries/reserves not zoos 🤦♀️ zoos were created for human's entertainment and amusement
SNSD they also keep them in zoos, but it depends more on where you live.
So beautiful.❤
Been learning a lot about whales lately. Such beautiful, magnificently magical creatures. 🐳💙
Beautiful. Thankyou
He’s such a beautiful whale.
@chris balbo ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Ur moms a beautiful whale
In the water or in the chair?
@chris balbo Ew if you eat those animals, loser.
@@thonking2208 are you a grade schooler? No you ARE
Human stops playing.
Beluga: why’d you stop?
"I specifically asked for music."
@@thechocolatewolf8992 That should be: I specifically requested no romantic music.
@@pauljordan4452 no
Don't worry Beluga, he'll play Belupacito next.
What kind of soul sees a Beluga and decides to play music for it... absolutely beautiful
This is absolutely one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen! I just love animals! 🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️
