New York Times, Denmark, classical music, and cows.

10. And finally, a moo-ving performance.

This weekend, a group of cellists played two concerts for some music-loving cows and humans in a village south of Copenhagen as part of an effort to bring cultural events to rural areas.

The idea was born when the founder of Denmark’s Scandinavian Cello School, who had toured Japan as a musician, told a local farmer about how that country’s famously pampered Wagyu cows were raised to produce tender beef. All attendees, human and bovine, appeared to enjoy the events, though the cows seemed to have stronger opinions about classical music.

“Did you see how they all left at one point,” one cellist said. “They’re not really Dvorak fans.”

Have a cultured evening.
