拯救北極!世界著名鋼琴家漂浮北極冰洋上,以優美演奏對全球發出終極呼籲! / Ludovico Einaudi Performs ‘Elegy for the Arctic’ On An Iceberg For Greenpeace


Chester Music’s Ludovico Einaudi has teamed up with Greenpeace in a campaign to save the Arctic. Two weeks ago the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise set off from the Netherlands carrying the voices of eight million people – messages from around the globe calling for governments to save the Arctic from threats such as oil drilling and destructive fishing. Inspired by this petition and in support of its cause, Einaudi has composed a new piano piece Elegy for the Arctic which was performed and recorded for the first time by the composer at the Arctic atop a 2.6 x 10 metre, 2 tonne artificial iceberg. Einaudi, who joined the expedition at Svalbard, Norway, said:
‘Being here has been a great experience. I could see the purity and fragility of this area with my own eyes and interpret a song I wrote to be played upon the best stage in the world. It is important that we understand the importance of the Arctic, stop the process of destruction and protect it.’ 

Speaking on board the Arctic Sunrise, Greenpeace Spain Arctic campaigner, Elvira Jimenez, said:
‘Despite nearly eight million people calling for a Sanctuary in the Arctic, Greenpeace Spain is very concerned that the OSPAR Commission will bow to pressure from Norway, Denmark and Iceland. These three countries are opposed to the only Convention with the power to recognise the Arctic’s environmental value by protecting a part of international Arctic waters.’
THE ARCTIC NEEDS YOUR VOICE: PETITION
北極熊和獨角鯨最近享受了一場難得的音樂饗宴。世界著名鋼琴家兼作曲家 Ludovico Einaudi 以北極的冰雪為背景,演出一場鋼琴演奏會。他將一架宏偉的鋼琴擺放在漂浮的木筏上,以悅耳的和絃伴奏著來自世界各地 800 萬人的呼聲,籲請各國政府即時伸出援手拯救北極。

這片冰冷的地區是全球的寶藏,它以生物的多樣性、獨特的野生動物,以及對氣候的調節而聞名。最近一艘名為「北極日出」的綠色和平船載著來自世界各地的訊息,要求停止在該地區的開採、不必要的石油鑽探和破壞性捕魚。當船隻從挪威斯瓦爾巴群島經過時,這名義大利名作曲家搭上了船,到達此地來舉行這場極具挑戰性的演奏會。當他在北極洶湧的冰川和雄偉的高山前,彈奏出他特別為此行創作的「北極輓歌」,優美的音樂回蕩在冰面上傳達出一個强有力的訊息。

Einaudi 的表演特別定在與 Ospar 代表團會議同時舉行,這場在西班牙召開的會議提出建議,將北極 10 % 的冰洋納入保護。該地區是目前世界上最不受保護的海洋,沒有任何法律上的保護措施阻擋人們來此開發及造成破壞。這項會議就是要來決定這片海洋的命運:隨著全球氣溫上升,覆蓋土地的冰雪萎縮,各國必須採取行動,才能為後代子孫保留這片稀有的自然環境。
「我可以透過自己的眼睛,看到這個地區的純淨和脆弱性,同時在這個世界最好的舞臺上闡釋一首自己創作的曲子。」Einaudi 說:「最重要的是,我們必須瞭解北極的重要性,停止破壞過程,並盡力去保護它。」來自全球籲請即時保護這片冰凍之地的呼聲已經高漲,如果你有興趣為北極發聲,可以點擊這個請願書連結
