DESPITE THEIR CONSIDERABLE STUDIO PROWESS, British supergroup
Yes has always been most famous for unparalleled live shows.
The band pioneered the use of lasers, elaborate fantasy
art-inspired sets, "In-the-Round" revolving stages, and the
best sound engineering in the business. But all of the
amazing sights and spectacle can't surpass the extraordinary
musicianship and chemistry of the members of Yes on stage.
They've been blowing audiences away for over three decades.
And no performance is more legendary than the band's March
21, 1970 Queen Elizabeth Hall gig. Of the countless shows Yes
has played, that one night is the only time that the group
performed its sweeping orchestral rock with a symphony
orchestra. With each passing year, the legend of the Queen
Elizabeth Hall gig has grown, and fans' desire to see an
orchestral Yes perform their classics has reached a fevered
pitch. Tonight, Yes answers the call.

Vocalist/lyricist and multi-instrumentalist Jon Anderson,
guitar wizard Steve Howe, bassist/co-founder Chris Squire and
longtime drummer and percussionist Alan White set to work on a
new studio album earlier this year. The idea was the replace
the traditional keyboard role with a full orchestra. The band
collaborated with Emmy award-winning television and motion
picture composer Larry Groupe. It was a inspired union,
yielding one of the group's most powerful musical statements.
There was only one logical next step - to once again perform
live with an orchestra.

With Larry Groupe arranging and conducting, Yes presents songs
from the stunning new album, MAGNIFICATION, along with
best-loved classics. Some thirty years later, fans finally get
the chance to witness the champions of symphonic rock perform
their music as it was meant to be heard.
