String instruments don't just play the music, they are the music, their bodies moving in perfect sync with every note. You watch a cello breathe, a violin lean into vibrato, a harp's strings caught mid-shimmer, all of it happening in real time. The song itself carries you through; nothing distracts from the ceremony of watching living instruments perform their own existence. This is meditation disguised as a music video.
Animals made of string turn their own bodies into musical instruments and play a symphony together. The piece is a music video for a song by The King Tones, and it was featured on NHK's Minna no Uta program. It runs as a single episode.
