Eclipse - Pink Floyd Orchestrated

Direct from sold out performances at the Sydney Opera House, rock legend Jack Jones joins the might of a Symphony Orchestra, a killer rock band, three powerhouse vocalists, and a 20-person strong youth choir to faithfully re-ignite the awe-inspiring sound of Pink Floyd in all its glory. Immerse yourself in the sonic soundscape and lyrical wonders of Pink Floyd in this blazingly original event.

Featuring 60 musicians and singers live on stage, ECLIPSE – the name of the closing track on Pink Floyd’s seminal album The Dark Side of the Moon – features many classic songs, including Money, Time, Wish You Were Here, Another Brick in the Wall (Part II), Us and Them, Mother, Have a Cigar and Comfortably Numb.

Inducted into the US Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005, Pink Floyd were pioneers in the live music experience, renowned for their rich song-writing, illuminating themes, and elaborate live shows.

Formed in London in 1965, Pink Floyd gained an early following as one of the first British psychedelic groups. What made them stand out was their extended compositions and song-cycles, sonic experimentation and philosophical lyrics. They became a leading band of the progressive rock genre. By 2013, Pink Floyd had sold more than 250 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Their innovative albums, The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall  were both inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.

Don’t miss this inspiring event, a celebration recapturing the mastery, spirit and imagination of one of history’s best and brightest rock bands.
