David Gilmour to release new live set

Pink Floyd's David Gilmour has a new live set on the way. In September, he'll release Live In Gdansk, the last show of his 2006 summer tour. The gig, which was recorded in front of 50,000 people at the shipyards in Gdansk, Poland, find Gilmore backed by the Polish Baltic Philharmonic Orchestra featuring a 40-strong string section. Highlights include the performance of "A Great Day for Freedom" with the orchestral arrangement of the late Michael Kamen, and a guest appearance by prominent Polish pianist Leszek Mozdzer, who reprised his piano part from On an Island's "A Pocketful Of Stones."

Last fall, Gilmour released a DVD called Remember That Night - Live From The Royal Albert Hall.

Glimour's most recent solo album, On an Island, came out in 2006.
