Composer and pianist Ludovico Einaudi took a trip to the Arctic for a very unique purpose: He performed a concert for the South Pole
Einaudi played his "Elegy for the Arctic" — composed for a Greenpeace effort to help raise awareness about climate change's harmful effects on the region — while floating on a platform in the Arctic Ocean

The piece's powerful melody is accompanied by the sounds of ice falling into the sea around Einaudi in a video produced by Greenpeace.
"As he performed this piece for the first time — in front of a magnificent surging glacier — the music echoed across the ice, a moment that will remain in our minds forever," Greenpeace said in a statement (http://www.greenpeace.org/international/en/news/Blogs/makingwaves/Ludovico-Einaudi-grand-pia**-Arctic-ocean-8-million-voices/blog/56808/).
