Description:

'David Gilmour Live In Gdansk', a double live album plus concert DVD is first solo live album from Pink Floyd's
singer / guitarist, and captures the magic of his concert held in front of 50,000 in the Gdansk shipyards
on the final performance of his critically acclaimed 2006 'On An Island tour'.

It also features the first ever recording of selected Pink Floyd classics performed with an orchestra.

The double live album 'David Gilmour Live In Gdansk', produced by David Gilmour and Phil Manzanera, features
the Gdansk concert and demonstrates a musician and his band playing at the very peak of their musical brilliance.

The six piece band is accompanied for the only time on the On An Island tour by an orchestra: the 40-strong
string section of the Baltic Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Zbigniew Preisner,
orchestral arranger on David Gilmour's number 1 album, 'On An Island'.

It is the first ever live recording with an orchestra of Pink Floyd's 'High Hopes' and 'A Great Day For Freedom', the latter performed here as a one-off for this special Solidarity anniversary.

Playing with Gilmour at this historic concert was his band of world renowned musicians:

Richard Wright - Pink Floyd's keyboard player
Phil Manzanera - Roxy Music guitarist and co-producer of On An Island
Guy Pratt - bass player with Pink Floyd and Roxy Music
Jon Carin - keyboards and longtime player with Pink Floyd
Steve Di Stanislao - drums, recently played with Crosby and Nash
Dick Parry - saxophone and longtime Pink Floyd collaborator.

The two and a half hour DVD which accompanies the live album is directed by Gavin Elder.

The DVD evocatively portrays the drama of the Gdansk concert, set against the urban landscape of the shipyard
and crane-filled skyline.

Hung above the stage, suspended on two giant cranes, were six, 16 ton screens, each one focussed on a band member and lit in a kaleidoscope of colour and lasers by lightmeister Marc Brickman.

As well as 113 minutes of concert footage, The DVD includes a riveting 36-minute documentary which includes Gilmour's private meeting with former President Lech Walesa, chats with the band and crew, concert
rehearsals and a moving wreath-laying with Walesa at the Memorial to the shipyard workers killed in the 1970 uprising.

'David Gilmour Live In Gdansk' is available in several formats, all of which include all the orchestral tracks; the 113-minute 'Concert DVD' includes footage of all the orchestral songs, plus 'Echoes' and 'Astronomy Domine'.

The 5LP version features an exclusive live version of the Pink Floyd track 'What's...Uh The Deal?'
