Orpheus’s singing and playing were so beautiful that animals and even trees and rocks moved about him in dance. His singing and playing charmed people and gods. Some of these incidents are:
1.With his singing and playing he charmed the ferryman Charon and the dog Cerberus, guardians of the River Styx.
2.His music and grief so moved Hades king of the underworld that Orpheus was allowed to take Eurydice with him back to the world of life and light.
