Playing for Animals
Goats
I was on a quest when I delved into the secrets of the universe through the enchanting frequency of 528 Hz on my guitar. Whispers of its transformative power had reached my ears from a wise Native American, who spoke of the ethereal effects of this mystical tuning. Intrigued, I embarked on a journey to unlock its hidden wonders.
Equipped with a frequency generator I had acquired, I meticulously fine-tuned my guitar to resonate at the sacred vibration of 528 Hz. As the celestial notes emanated from my instrument, a euphonious harmony enveloped my senses. It was as though I had discovered the key to a celestial realm, where every chord sang like heavenly ambrosia. No disharmony tainted the melodic tapestry I wove, for this ethereal tuning held the power to awaken celestial resonance within every note.
Months passed, and I ardently embraced this newfound tuning, immersing myself in its mystical aura. A band in which I played in witness to this harmonious enchantment, yet they hesitated to relinquish the familiar embrace of the standard 440 Hz tuning, fearing the arduous journey of starting anew. Though I understood their hesitations, my spirit had been forever captivated by the alluring magic of 528 Hz, and I vowed not to release its grip on my soul.
Then, like a clandestine whisper from the cosmos, a revelation danced upon my consciousness—an inexplicable urging to share this mystical symphony with the animal kingdom. Why such a peculiar notion had graced my being, I could not fathom. Nonetheless, an unyielding force propelled me forward. Determined to unravel the secrets hidden within the hearts of creatures, I embarked on my extraordinary quest.
My first venture led me to a rustic farm, a sanctuary where a troupe of goats roamed freely in there pen. Greeted by the presence of a majestic Bernese Mountain Dog, I hesitated at the pen’s entrance, sensing the formidable aura of this noble guardian. Setting the stage with my musical apparatus, I commenced the composition I later named “Horses Dance.” The resonant melodies cascaded into the air, capturing the attention of the curious goats. Their gaze turned skyward, their ears attuned to the celestial harmony. Eager to explore this newfound enchantment, a brave goat ventured closer, but the formidable presence of the dog imbued trepidation within their hearts. Undeterred, I sought permission to enter the pen, embracing the challenge the guardian posed. Stepping into their domain, I found solace upon a stump adjacent to the dog, its commanding gaze reminding me that I had entered its territory.
With renewed determination, I unleashed the mellifluous melodies of 528 Hz. A mesmerizing aura blanketed the space as the goats fixated their gaze upon me. Forty pairs of eyes, brimming with curiosity, bore witness to the otherworldly resonance resonating from my guitar. One audacious goat, driven by insatiable inquisitiveness, gingerly approached, his eyes filled with wonderment. Sniffing my instrument, his spirit danced between intimidation and curiosity, oscillating with each enchanting note. His fellow goats, observing from a safe distance, dared not venture closer. Alas, the presence of the imposing dog and their inherent caution hindered their proximity, leaving my first experiment suspended in mystic enchantment.
Horses
Time passed, and the whispers of the universe beckoned me to a horse sanctuary. Guided by a friend, we arrived at the gates of this haven, guitars in tow. Welcoming us with warmth and intrigue was Jim, the spirited custodian of this ethereal realm. A sanctuary where disabled children sought solace in the company of gentle horses. Once again, he inquired about the true essence of it all, and I replied with uncertainty, “I cannot fully fathom it, but an inexplicable force guided me to play for horses.” His eyes bore a mixture of skepticism and intrigue as he motioned towards a nearby enclosure. Within its confines stood a lone horse, tethered to a post. Stepping into the space, I settled upon the offered stool, my every move observed by Jim. Anticipation coursed through my veins as I prepared myself to commence.
In a moment of transcendence, the horse turned its noble head, bewitched by the ethereal frequencies that caressed its ears. What I did know about is that the celestial vibrations of 528 Hz intertwined with the radiant energy emitted by our very sun, a symphony embraced by all flora, from vibrant vegetables to majestic trees. As my melodies cascaded forth, the horse remained bound to the post, its gaze locked upon me, recognizing the profound connection forged in our harmonious encounter. Sensing the intensity of this moment, Jim made the audacious choice to unfasten the majestic beast from its earthly constraints.
Embracing newfound freedom, the aged horse ventured towards me, an aura of insatiable curiosity emanating from its being. Astonishment enveloped me as it tenderly caressed my guitar and hands with affectionate licks. Jim, bewildered by this extraordinary occurrence, sought an explanation for the mystical phenomenon unfolding before our eyes. Though unable to provide definitive answers, I immersed myself in the enchantment of the moment. Our symphony wove a tapestry of magic for several timeless minutes until Jim gently guided the horse back to its post, captivated by the revelations I shared regarding the enigmatic tuning I had employed.
Eager to explore further realms of enchantment, I expressed a desire to serenade other equine souls. Jim revealed the existence of several enclosures, one housing a trio of magnificent horses. A word of caution accompanied his revelation, for within that sacred space resided two mares and a majestic stallion. Their heightened state of passion, intensified by the allure of the mares’ season, necessitated a respectful distance. Accepting this sacred boundary, I leaned against the fence, poised to embark upon a melodic odyssey. My dear friend readied her camera, eager to capture the unfolding spectacle.
As my melodies cascaded, a mere minute passed before I felt the warmth of fiery breath tenderly caressing the nape of my neck. Oblivious to the equine enchantment behind me, I remained consumed by the ethereal melodies that poured from my instrument. The stallion, unable to resist the irresistible allure of the music, inquisitively sniffed at my neck. Undeterred, I continued to weave my sonic tapestry, blissfully unaware of the astonishment etched upon the faces of my friend and Jim. And then, as if drawn by an unseen force, the stallion extended its majestic head over my shoulder, gently nuzzling and embracing me, intertwining our spirits with a profound bond. Overwhelmed by this inexplicable connection, I persisted in playing, while my dear friend immortalized the serenity through her lens, regrettably unable to capture the full depth of the magic on video.
Moments later, a female horse from a neighboring realm, lured by the bewitching melodies, yearned to partake in our harmonious dance. Intrigued, I shifted closer to her, and she reciprocated, striving to bridge the divide between our worlds. As I turned to acknowledge her presence, she bestowed upon me a gentle kiss upon my lips, leaving Jim utterly flabbergasted. Such a divine occurrence had never graced his eyes.
Pigs, Donkeys, Horses
Embarking on my next mystical quest, I set my sights upon a hidden farm nestled amidst ethereal realms, where majestic creatures of equine grace, swine wisdom, and donkey enchantment resided. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by Linda, the guardian of this sanctuary. Her presence radiated a warm energy as she welcomed us, granting us permission to commune with the mystical beings dwelling within. Yet, she issued a gentle warning, cautioning against trespassing into the realm of the donkeys, for their mystical essence held the power to manifest fierce bites when provoked.
As we stood before a pen adorned with three formidable hogs, my soul yearned to venture into their realm. Inquiring of Linda, I sought her permission to enter. To my delight, she granted my request, for the hogs slumbered deeply, their spirits entwined in the tapestry of dreams. Armed with two mystical guitars, each resonating with cosmic frequencies, my journey commenced. One was attuned to the celestial harmony of 528Hz, while the other whispered the sacred notes of the solfeggio tuning at 285 Hz.
Stepping into the mystical pen, the veil between worlds shimmered before me as I positioned myself behind the swine, armed with the guitar resonating at 285 Hz. I played with fervor, seeking to awaken their dormant spirits. Alas, the hogs remained serenely still, unyielding to the melodic enchantment that flowed from my fingertips. Undeterred, a burning determination kindled within my heart, urging me to transcend their slumbering state. With a knowing glance toward my faithful companion, who captured the scene upon film, I beckoned for the guitar attuned to the celestial frequency of 528Hz.
As the strings reverberated with mystical energy, a resounding snort reverberated through the air, shaking the very fabric of the ethereal realm. Instantly, the great black and white hog stirred from its celestial reverie, its eyes meeting mine in a profound connection of spirits. Step by deliberate step, the hog approached, emitting a symphony of snorts, an ancient language only understood by those who traverse the realms between worlds. Soon, the other two hogs awoke from their cosmic slumber, drawn by the irresistible allure of the melodic incantation. Encircled by their mystical presence, I became the focal point of their gaze, their snorts intertwining in a celestial chorus of communion.
Having communed with the mystical swine, we ventured forth to the sacred domain of the donkeys. Initiating the symphony of cosmic frequencies, I strummed the strings attuned to 528Hz, hoping to capture their attention. However, the donkeys remained unaffected, their gaze fixed on distant realms beyond mortal perception. Intuitively, I reached for the guitar resonating at 285 Hz, a portal to a realm unknown to most. As the ethereal notes danced through the air, the donkeys came alive, their souls awoken by the ancient melody. Their powerful brays echoed through the mystical expanse, resonating with the very essence of their ethereal being. While the pony appeared distressed, the donkeys reveled in the enchanting melody, surrendering themselves to its transformative power.
Embracing the currents of mystical energy, I embarked upon an extraordinary encounter with a majestic horse. Strumming the strings attuned to 528Hz, the harmonious vibrations wrapped around its ethereal beings, evoking a response that transcended the mortal realm. The horses, their spirits attuned to the celestial symphony, responded with grace and reverence, their majestic presence embodying the essence of ancient wisdom. The mystical connection that bloomed.
