Penguins march their way to the Royal Albert Hall ahead of Frozen Planet II
Показать описание
Ahead of the natural history landmark Frozen Planet II launching at 8pm on BBC One Sunday 11th September, Earth Prom guests were treated to a live performance of the first look trailer at the Royal Albert Hall.
In celebration of these magical frozen worlds, four-foot ice sculpture emperor penguins and polar bears lined the steps of the Royal Albert Hall, creating a hauntingly beautiful scene from the polar regions, accompanied by poignant messaging from Sir David Attenborough.
“As we appreciate the stunning beauty of the frozen parts of our planet, let’s not forget what we must do to save it”
As the statues slowly melted, we were reminded of the impact of global warming on our frozen worlds and the challenges faced by a heroic cast of animals, from polar bears to penguins, snow monkeys to Siberian tigers, each species must overcome a unique set of challenges to endure its extreme environment.
The sculptures have been created by an eco-friendly company with a focus on sustainable practices. Only natural ingredients (water) have been used and the recyclable plinths have been designed to collect the meltwater and then reused to replenish the plants around the Royal Albert Hall.
This year’s Earth Prom was part of the BBC Prom season and took a look back at a stunning audio-visual celebration of the BBC’s world-famous Natural History Unit, from David Attenborough’s pioneering early adventures through to the landmark series of the 21st century. Guests got to enjoy breath-taking images, natural sounds, spoken words and music by composers including multiple Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer and George Fenton, performed live in the spectacular surroundings of the Royal Albert Hall by Ben Palmer and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
A 5-minute preview of Frozen Planet II was shown at the Earth Prom, accompanied by live music by composing legend Hans Zimmer and Norwegian singer/songwriter AURORA, who features on the soundtrack for the series.
