Thai Elephant Orchestra



The Thai Elephant Orchestra is a musical ensemble consisting of as many as a dozen elephants near Lampang in Northern Thailand who play music (essentially as conducted improvisations) on enormous specially designed musical instruments. The orchestra was created and is conducted by elephant conservationist Richard Lair of the Thai Elephant Conservation Center and the American composer/performer Dave Soldier.
