He doesn’t often get the chance to play for an audience, though, and recently, as he and his wife were out on a run together, they had the best idea. “My wife and I run together past the field occasionally,” Herrmann told The Dodo. “The cows always seem curious. I asked my wife, ‘I wonder if they would come if I played the saxophone?’ She said, ‘Let's try it.’” There are videos all over the internet of people playing music for animals, and Herrmann decided it was his turn to give it a try. He and his wife drove over to the field and got out of the car, and Herrmann quickly got into position. “Actually, this is my first audition for a live audience,” Herrmann said to the camera as his wife began to record. “Let’s see how it goes!” Herrmann decided to start with “Isn’t She Lovely” by Stevie Wonder — and the moment he began to play, all of the cows in the field stopped dead in their tracks.

It wasn’t long before every single cow in the field was rushing the fence like they were at a rock concert, pushing past one another to try and get as close to the music as possible. After his first song, Herrmann went on to play “Careless Whisper” by George Michael and “Tequila” by The Champs. The cows stayed completely captivated the entire time he was playing, and the whole thing went so much better than he could have imagined. “I thought they might come over, but I wasn't sure,” Herrmann said.

It just goes to show that music truly can bring all kinds of people and creatures together. If you’re ever driving past a field of cows and you’ve got some talent, why not try putting on a show.
