Birds on the Wires

A beautiful little piece of music made by director Jarbas Agnelli:

Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn’t the most original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating.

It reminds me a little of Sufjan Stevens at his most orchestral.
