Glacier Concerto

 Fine for cities and villages near mountains

Glaciers are in constant motion. They crack and break and twist and flow.

This sheer power of nature is also a sonoric one. Embed small microphones into the glaciers and beam the moanings of the ice giants to the town below.

I liked "Whale Sounds, Vol. 2", but "Glacier Concerto 1" may be nice too.

       It'd take a while to listen to.

       I think the glacier songs might be very low frequency. You might need to speed them up to make them audible. Down where the icebergs calf, I bet there is a lot of bergish moaning and wailing.

       According to Shackleton, icebergs cracking can release audible sound like massive thunder - truly powerful and immensely loud crashes, cracks, moans, bangs, etc.   

       would probably mess up my dreams.
