The upmarket Austrian ski resort of Ischgl brought the ski season to a spectacular close recently, with Sir Elton John playing a two-hour set of his best music. The performer has played at stadia and venues the world over, but this time it was a little different. He had his piano transported 2,320 metres up a mountain from where he entertained crowds. Ischgl hopes its concert will attract more fans to the resort, and it looks like these kinds of concerts might become more popular at other resorts.
