Ludovico Einaudi's piano performance in the middle of the Arctic Ocean is simply stunning and was done for a good cause. The concert was filmed as part of Greenpeace's "Save the Arctic" campaign, which seeks to protect the Arctic as it's become vulnerable to the effects of global warming. Einaudi performs on the floating platform as Norway's Wahlenbergbreen glacier crumbles around him.
