Watch Ludovico Einaudi Perform In the Arctic Ocean

Ludovico Einaudi has performed an original composition on a floating barge in the Arctic Ocean. He did so to help raise awareness for Greenpeace's Save The Arctic campaign.
Einaudi played his piece 'Elegy For The Arctic' on a grand piano as he slowly floated around on the waters of Wahlenbergbreen glacier in Svalbard, Norway. He was brought to the location on Greenpeace's ship, Arctic Sunrise.
At one point during the video enormous pieces of ice crash down from the glacier as a descending progression is played on the piano. Greenpeace made the video in protest to a proposed protection of 10% of the Arctic Ocean for fishing and oil drilling. Countries including Norway, Iceland and Denmark oppose the measure which will be decided upon at a meeting of world leaders in Tenerife this week.
Einaudi is a highly acclaimed composer and pianist, best known for his minimalistic solo material. His most recent solo album, Elements was released in 2015. See the footage of his unique performance below.
