Reindeer Serenade - Russia
Dec 2000
Just below the North Pole arctic Russia is a snowy playground for Santa and his reindeer. All is still and quiet on these frozen wastelands. But magical music can be heard floating out across the tundra. Mozart played for the nomads and their reindeer by an extraordinary group of visiting musicians. Two international students, Lygia and Pia, founded the orchestra in the 1980's, when they were students at Moscow's world famous Tshcaikovsky Conservatory. Under Soviet rules foreigners were forbidden to perform with Russians. Lygia and Pia were pioneers in creating the 'Ensemble XXI'. Eleven years later the orchestra is one of the finest in Moscow, with musicians from all nations performing as far up as the North Pole.

Polar Bear Patrol, Chukotka, Russia
Video by: Tom Arnbom
The "Polar Bear Patrol" is a project involving people living on the arctic coast, polar bear researchers, and environmental organizations, including WWF. The main goal of the Patrol is to save unique arctic nature and ensure the harmonious coexistence of people and wildlife.
Since autumn 2007 four Polar Bear Patrol teams work on the arctic coast of Chukotka and Yakutia in north-east Russia.
One of the main objectives of the Patrol is to manage the increased number of polar bears that are coming ashore as a result of declining sea ice. A very large number of walrus are also coming ashore and as a result many are dying in stampedes. The Patrol are trying to manage the situation by moving walrus carsuses up shore for the polar bears to feed on and thereby discourage...

Arctic expedition begins historic deep dive
The biggest ever Russian polar expedition, "Arctic 2007", hopes to prove that a large underwater shelf, possibly rich in oil and gas, is part of Russian territory. To do that, two deep-dive submarines are travelling up to 4,300 metres down to the seabed to get ground samples.
