Music by birds

Via [livejournal.com profile] homasse: a Brazilian composer saw a photo of birds sitting on wires and thought it looked like music. So he arranged it.


Birds on the Wires from Jarbas Agnelli on Vimeo.

I was listening to NPR after I heard that yesterday and they had been talking about it and had people call in to tell them that the Brazilian composer isn't the first person to think about doing this. (Although he's probably the first to stick it up on YouTube. ::g::)

Yeah, I've heard of it before, and the composer's own comments on the video page say it's not an original idea.

That was beautiful.

What a way to seize on an artistic opportunity! Even if it isn't original ♥

This reminds me of the lady in a Victorian novel (can't remember which one) who was so musical that when she was walking in the country and came to a five-bar gate, she stopped and sang the spots on her veil.

So pretty, I just read about this composer yesterday so thanks for posting this. This has made me feel happy today, the power of music does wonders.

That is amazing. It sounds so beautiful, yet it was composed by coincidence! Crazy.

That makes me happy. ^^

Love the tune, like the concept... very skeptical about the claim of non-photoshop, as the background of :13 and :58 are identical in lighting and cloud shape, just with birds gone.

However, fun idea regardless.
