Elephants kept at Circus World (most likely former circus trained elephants, but nevertheless) respond to Bach's Concerto in D Minor. Elephant's memory is something special. Enjoy! And bless these aged 44 and 45 y.o. great creatures rescued from the circus.

Shows that elephants have good taste.
Now play them some gansta rap, and prepare to be attacked.

Elephant intelligence is pretty extraordinary. When they can, they form tight social and emotional bonds, which, after separation for decades and they are reunited, have very intimate reunions that last for days, during which humans avoid them except very judiciously, in that they fear being separated again.
I also remember a “behind the scenes” video shoot for an American singing star, in which a younger elephant was to be standing in the shallow ocean waves next to a beach, in the background. But that elephant had never been to the beach, and went “frolicking” in the water like a happy large dog, having a blast. They had to wait most of an hour for it to settle down enough to do the shoot.
Hopefully, researchers will follow up this violin discovery by giving elephants a library of music to choose from.
