Yes

In June 2004, when Yes took the stage at the Lugano Jazz Festival, they were riding the wave of their album "Magnification," released in 2001. This album marked a significant moment for the band, as it was the first to feature an orchestra, highlighting their progressive rock roots while pushing boundaries. "Magnification" showcased the band's ability to evolve, even after decades in the industry, and it enclosed tracks that blended lush harmonies with intricate instrumentals—a hallmark of Yes's sound. What’s interesting about this period is that the band had undergone lineup changes several times, but during the Lugano performance, they were led by classic members like Jon Anderson and Chris Squire, reaffirming the band's enduring legacy. It's a testament to their resilience and commitment to pushing musical horizons, inviting fans to resonate deeply with their live renditions in this vibrant setting.
