“The structure of the harp is considered to be the most healing instruments next to human voice,” said Boone, an Oregonian who plays for ill family pets and produced a CD "Harp Music to Soothe the Savage Beast."
The article includes a poignant story of Cassie the Cow who escaped a slaughter house by defeating a 7 food fence and now lives on Maple Farm Sanctuary. Though now safe in her Sanctuary, she still suffers from anxiety. The Harp music of Alianna Boone took Cassie from a stomping, snorting state of agitation to one of sleep within 20 minutes.
I would like to see a follow-up study on the possible negative effects of music. Are some types of music as damaging to animal health as Harp music is helpful?
In my own experience, my companions tolerate most of my music, enjoy some of it, and show definite discomfort and nervousness with a few selections. However unscientific my findings may be, they are somewhat suggestive to a harmful component to music as well.
