----------------------------------------------------- OCTOBER 2002 ----------------------------------------------------- Source: Modern Drummer Magazine YesSymphonic DVD Review Rating: 8 out of 10 Through Dolby Digital 5.1 and superb, up close camera work, this 194 minute, two disc collection captures one of prog rock's most enduring acts live in Amsterdam with a 45 piece symphony orchestra on their 2001 Magnification tour. On disc one we see and hear long time drummer ALAN WHITE playing with equal flair such vintage tracks as "Close to the Edge," "Starship Trooper" and "Gates of Delerium" as well as the band's latest, extravagant symphonic compositions. In the band's classic epic "Ritual," which features a rare White drum solo, Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, keyboardist Tom Brislin and members of the European Festival Orchestra join in, building a frenzied, downright evil polyrhythmic romp. A great package and a must for fans. Close Window YesInThePress.com For site comments, problems, corrections, or additions, contact YesinthePress@aol.com
