Evelina De Lain, a 41-year-old London-based pianist, has broken the world record for the highest classical music concert by performing on a grand piano for 90 minutes at an altitude of 5,000 meters in the Himalayas, despite tricky weather conditions. /VCG Photo

With help from a team to transport the piano to the Singela Pass on the Himalayan mountains, the musician performed Chopin’s Nocturnes No. 2 in E flat major and No. 20 in C sharp minor, as well as other compositions from her solo album. /VCG Photo

De Lain reportedly lost the ability to move her hands 14 years ago due to a repetitive strain injury, but eventually regained most of the use of the limbs after intensive therapy. /VCG Photo

“I would never in a million years ever think I’d play classical piano again let alone play the highest classical concert," De Lain said. “It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done but I’m not one to shy away from a challenge, and it was such an honor to be asked to play my music in the clouds." /VCG Photo
