When you mix music with nature.
There is nothing more mesmerizing than playing harp amidst the serenity of nature and everything that dwells within it. And that’s exactly what a Canadian musician named Naomi did a few years back.
She decided to play harp in the middle of what seemed to be an open field right next to a forest. The feels, the chills, the aura, the scene, and the music, everything blended perfectly. It ended up so magical that it almost looked like turning a Disney-like scene into a reality.
Naomi also picked an iconic song to play and it’s none other than “The Sound of Silence”, by Simon & Garfunkel. There’s literally nothing that you could ask for more from this amazingly captured musical video.
But first, here’s a little information about the harp and why it’s such a magnificent instrument to play.
The harp, both in its exquisite appearance and enchanting melodies, possesses a captivating allure. Harp music possesses an innate magic, capable of weaving soothing spells upon the listener’s soul. The very first pluck of its strings elicits a beautiful resonance, rendering even practice sessions harmonious.
Research also revealed the therapeutic potential of harp music that’s backed by a lot of documented evidence. These studies unveil a deep connection between harp music and various physiological responses, including blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration.
Moreover, the strains of harp music induce a decrease in heart rate and an elevation in oxygenation levels. Investigations have also validated its positive influence on perceptions of pain, anxiety, and the cultivation of positive emotions. Harp music serves as a catalyst for an atmosphere imbued with comfort, warmth, and an overarching sense of safety.
As a testament to its efficacy, an increasing number of hospitals are now employing harpists to deliver the soothing balm of music to their patients.

They say numbers don’t lie and they really don’t, especially the views in this video. As Naomi started plucking the strings, she caught the attention of a deer standing from a few meters away. The curious creature then began to show a keen interest in the alluring music.
Although we aren’t sure what really captured the deer’s attention, whether it’s the presence of a human or the music. One thing’s for sure though, the deer sure liked it that it even inched closer to where Noami was.
Just look at that wagging tail! It’s indeed a show, however, it was cut sooner than expected when the deer suddenly ran back into the woods.
One of the online viewers shared her experience with deer.
“I have large, expensive chimes tuned to different keys, that the deer are intrigued with. When I first put it up, 5 of them were looking all over, trying to figure out where the pretty noise was coming from. I have put on pretty classical music outside and it sounded like the birds were trying to compete or be part of it. Music is a universal language for even animals. I have also caught them starring for a long time at Christmas lights. They are intrigued by some of the things we do.”
Looks like music attracts humans and animals alike, wouldn’t you agree?
