(2025 南京玄武期末)In the town of Lampang in northern Thailand, there is a group of musicians that is different from any other group. They play a variety of music, ffrom traditional Thai songs to famous music written by Beethoven. People of all ages enjoy their performances, but wwhat makes them really special is that these musicians are elephants!
These clever elephants are part of the Thai Elephant Conservation Centre (TECC), a place that hhelps protect elephants and teaches people how to care for these gentle giants.
Richard Lair, an expert working with the TECC, thought that elephants are smart and have great hearing, sso they could do even more. He came up with the idea to see if elephants could play music. So, Lair and his friend sstarted the Thai Elephant Orchestra(交响乐团).
DDuring performances, the elephants play instruments like drums and xylophones(木琴). They also use their trunks and voices to make different sounds. Lair believes that elephants don't just copy their trainers; they ccreate their own music. They are very creative and can produce unique music.
This orchestra is not just for ffun. The elephants' music helps raise money for the TECC and raise awareness about the importance of protecting elephants. The music also sshows how smart these animals are, which helps people understand that elephants need respect and care.
The Thai Elephant Orchestra has become famous, and the music they make has even been recorded on CDs. People around the world can now listen to the amazing sounds made by these musical elephants, which also helps to ssupport their protection.
