mix was released by Rhino Records on 30 July 2002, containing extended sleeve notes and bonus audio and video content. Magnification was included in the Yes compilation album Essentially Yes (2006). Tour Yes supported Magnification with their Yessymphonic Tour of North America and Europe between July and December 2001 with the band accompanied by an orchestra for each show. The tour marked the band's first ever concerts in Russia. Time was limited, leaving preparations with the live orchestra to begin while the album was still being mixed. The North American leg featured a different orchestra at each concert, while the European leg had the European Festival Orchestra, formed of young musicians, touring with the band with conductor Wilhelm Keitel. The first several gigs of the tour featured Groupe as conductor. To play the necessary keyboard passages in the setlist, the band hired American keyboardist Tom Brislin. "Magnification", "Don't Go", and "In the Presence Of" were performed live, the latter receiving a particularly welcoming response from audiences; to Howe, "like a classic Yes number". The two shows at Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam were recorded which was released as the 2002 DVD and 2009 CD Symphonic Live, the video directed by Aubrey Powell of Hipgnosis. Former Yes keyboardist Rick Wakeman was invited to perform with the band for the recording of Magnification and the tour, but he declined as he already had gigs booked in South America. He rejoined the group in April 2002. Track listing All songs by Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire and Alan White. Personnel Credits adapted from the album's liner notes.
