Sony/Columbia will release “Live at GdaÅ„sk,” a double live album and concert DVD by David Gilmour, on Sept. 22 in the U.K., the following day in the U.S.
The concert, performed in front of an audience of 50,000 at the GdaÅ„sk shipyards in Poland, was the only show of the Summer ’06 tour that included an orchestra. The 40-piece Polish Baltic Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Zbigniew Preisner, joined Gilmour on stage. Preisner also handled orchestral arrangements on Gilmour’s “On an Island” album.
“Live at GdaÅ„sk” will come in a number of different packages: 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-disc versions, containing a variety of CDs and DCDs; as well as a 5-LP box, which comes with a pass to download the entire thing in MP3 format.
