On Earth Day, National Geographic is broadcasting stunning, previously unreleased photos from its archive — accompanied by music
Earth Day is one of the world's largest celebrations of our environment.
To commemorate the holiday, National Geographic is debuting a "Symphony for our World": a television event that will pair a slideshow of National Geographic's stunning wildlife photography with a five-part symphony.
The music is created by Bleeding Fingers Music and performed by a full orchestra and choir. The symphony-and-photo pairing will air on National Geographic Wild on Sunday, April 22 at 7 p.m. EST.
A touring, 90-minute live symphony event with projections of the photos will also debut in San Francisco, California on April 22 (Earth Day), then tour around the US and Canada.
Below are some of the most spectacular wildlife images from "Symphony for our World," which were previously unreleased from National Geographic's archive.

The live symphony performances will take place in cities around the US and Canada. After starting in San Francisco on Sunday, the event will then travel to Austin, Texas in July.
The music and images are divided into five parts that correspond with different ecosystems: the sea, coastlines, land, mountains, and sky.
Images from each of those environments will be accompanied by a different chapter of music that's tailored to the ecosystem.
