Yes - Close to the Edge Part 2 | Symphonic Live Concert Performance

Venue: Heineken Music Hall Location: Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands Date: November 22, 2001

Before the mesmerizing live recording of "Close to the Edge" in Amsterdam on November 22, 2001, Yes had just released their studio album "Magnification" in 2001. This album marked a significant moment for the band as it was their first to feature an orchestra, which added a rich, symphonic texture to their classic progressive rock sound. Interestingly, during this concert, they were accompanied by the European Festival Orchestra, conducted by Wilhelm Keitel, which really showcased their ability to blend intricate melodies and powerful arrangements. It’s a brilliant juxtaposition of Yes’s signature style with orchestral depth, reflecting their evolution and willingness to experiment. Those who attended that night likely felt the electric synergy between the band and the orchestra, creating an unforgettable auditory experience that would resonate for years to come.
