A musician, Dagmar Trichtinger-Scharf, who works with plant music, recounts an extraordinary experience with her houseplant: for weeks, the flutist had been practicing a Vivaldi concerto, playing the same piece over and over again.
One day, she connected her houseplant—which had been played the piece over and over—to a plant music device, and she recounts: “The plant suddenly played a theme that sounded just like Vivaldi!”
Dagmar Trichtinger-Scharf recorded the music and was kind enough to share it with us.
See for yourself whether the plant sounds like Vivaldi. -
