The Wall Live Orchestra at Hala Koło: Pink Floyd’s album in a live orchestral interpretation

The Wall Live Orchestra comes to Warsaw’s Hala Koło on 22 September! Relive the spirit of youthful rebellion and join the musicians in singing the famous protest line, ‘We don’t need no education’!

The Wall, 34 years after Alan Parker’s film debuted: Pink Floyd’s iconic concept album now performed entirely live in a stunning new form! Impressive live orchestration with over seventy artists on stage highlights the meeting of rock and classical music, taking audiences back to The Wall’s original version. Live video on a giant stage screen and extraordinary lighting deepen the emotions, bringing audiences closer to the performing musicians and singers.

With more than two hundred performances behind them, the band have deservedly earned the title of Italy’s finest Pink Floyd tribute act. Reaching their current standard took time. Years of attention to the smallest details have made their arrangements extraordinarily precise and meticulous: sound, atmosphere and experience gained at hundreds of concerts combine to impressive effect. The idea of performing The Wall with a symphony orchestra became reality in 2012. The album’s thirtieth anniversary was in the air, and fans were excited. The concert is directed by Emiliano Galigani, a film producer and director whose many projects between 2000–2016 include the musicals Welcome to the Machine and Jesus Christ Superstar. Simone Giusti will conduct the orchestra.

The band on the project:

“We needed something different: a show where respect for the music and original arrangements would meet the sonic power of a full orchestra. Professional live video transmission and expertise in sound and lighting design would guarantee every audience member the chance to experience what happens on stage. That is how the idea was born. We did not want to restage an overplayed show or create something like many other projects, so we made an entirely original Floyd experience, mixing film, the album, lighting effects, live video transmission and, of course, live music!”

Polish audiences can expect a long, richly varied performance in two acts, presenting an individual interpretation of ‘The Wall’ that will satisfy even Pink Floyd’s most devoted fans.
