Grammy Award-winning prog-rockers YES return to the Royal Albert Hall to conclude the UK leg of their The Album Series 2020 Tour. Fans can look forward to a truly unique experience as the band will perform their Close to the Edge album in its entirety together with a selection of other classics.
During the first set, long-time favourites will take centre stage, before YES return to perform all tracks in the order they appear on their seventh studio album, complete with full production and a high definition video wall.
From the opening track Gates Of Delirium, almost 22 minutes in length and featuring a battle between keyboard and guitar, through the beautiful ballad Soon, a prayer for peace and hope, the prog-rock-jazz fusion experiment Sound Chaser, to the calm and gentle conclusion of To Be Over, this is a concert you wont want to miss.
An exhibition of artworks by Roger Dean, who has designed many of the band's albym covers was set up in Door 6.
