Violinist Eleanor Bartsch decided to take her warm-up yo the local zoo. And discovered that elephants cannot let music go by un-danced to.

Batsch was getting ready to play Bach Concerto for Two Violins with the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, and headed to the Circus World Museum in Baraboo, WI to rehearse. Her lucky audience was Kelly and Viola, 44 and 45 year-old elephants that Batsch says, “have lived together for most of their lives.” That’s probably why they are so in sync.
