Yes and The Hollywood Bowl Orchestra
Prog-rockers from the '70s backed by orchestra
By Daniel Bernstein
For their latest world tour, long time classic rock staple Yes adds an extra touch of "classic" to their act, as they are playing backed by a full
orchestra. For this evening only, their help will come not from just any mammoth collection of violins, cellos, etc., but by the world famous
Hollywood Bowl Orchestra under conductor John Mauceri. They'll be offering tunes from their new CD Magnification, but after 30 odd years of
performance, they know that fans demand hits like "Roundabout," "I've Seen All Good People" and "Owner of a Lonely Heart" sprinkled in with the new
numbers. Jon Anderson's vocals have barely lost a thing over the decades, while Steve Howe's guitar, Chris Squire's bass and Alan White's keyboards
have if anything gotten even sharper.
