Composer uses instruments made out of ice

A live performance by musician Terje Isungset is guaranteed to send shivers down your spine - as the instruments he plays are made entirely out of ice.

Terje, from Bergen in Norway, became known as the Iceman after he started making music with instruments carved out of blocks of ice drawn from a nearby lake.

His amazing frozen creations include harps, trumpets, horns, guitars, marimbas and even a iceridoo - a frozen version of the Australian didgeridoo.
