Do French cows enjoy listening to jazz?

Watch more with these video collections:

Cows love jazz. Or maybe it’s just these French cows that love Dixieland, a New Orleans-style of jazz. Or perhaps those sounds are a curiosity to them?

In any case, this cow concert video was filmed in Autrans, a city in Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France in 2011. Watch as a herd of French cows flocks to the sound of ‘When the Saints Go Marching In’ and ‘Bill Bailey, Won’t You Please Come Home,’ performed by Steve Call on tuba and Daniel Henderson on trumpet.

Plus, here’s part two of the cow concert performed by all five members of the American jazz band The New Hot 5: Joshua Payne on the banjo, Call, Henderson, Clark Burnside on clarinet, and Will Kimball on trombone.


Watch this next: Grace Lehane plays her concertina for the cattle in Kilmichael Cork.

Bonus: Louis Armstrong sings ‘When the Saints Go Marching In’.
