=== 2001–2004: ''Magnification'' and 35th anniversary tour ===
Following the departures of Sherwood and Khoroshev and the death of Fairbairn, Yes once again set about reinventing themselves, this time choosing to record without a keyboardist, opting instead to include a 60-piece orchestra conducted by [[Larry Groupé]]; the first time the band used an orchestra since ''Time and a Word'' in 1970. The result was their nineteenth studio album, 2001's ''[[Magnification (album)|Magnification]]''. The record was not a chart success; it peaked at number 71 in the UK<ref name=officialchartsuk/> and number 186 in the U.S.<ref name=allmusicalbumchart/> The Yes Symphonic Tour ran from July to December 2001 and had the band performing on stage with an orchestra and American keyboardist [[Tom Brislin]]. Their two shows in Amsterdam, in November, were recorded for their 2002 DVD and 2009 CD release ''[[Symphonic Live]]''. The band invited Wakeman to play with them for the filming, but he was on a solo tour at the time.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nfte.org/interviews/rw263.html|title=Conversation with Rick Wakeman|first=Mike|last=Tiano|publisher=Notes from the Edge|date=14 July 2002|access-date=9 December 2017}}</ref>

Following Wakeman's announcement of his return in April 2002, Yes embarked on their [[List of Yes concert tours (2000s–10s)#Full Circle Tour|Full Circle Tour]] in 2002–2003 that included their first performances in Australia since 1973.<ref name="billboard03">{{cite magazine|title=''Billboard'' Spotlight: Yes 35th Anniversary|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0REEAAAAMBAJ|magazine=Billboard|date=1 November 2003|pages=45–46, 48–50, 55–59|publisher=Nielsen Business Media Inc}}</ref> The band's appearance in [[Montreux]] on this tour was documented on the album and DVD ''[[Live at Montreux 2003]]'', released in 2007. In 2002, [[Rhino Records]] issued ''[[In a Word: Yes (1969–)|In a Word: Yes]]'', a five CD box set of classic, rare and unreleased tracks from the band's history, including some from the 1979 Paris sessions, followed a year later by the compilation album ''[[The Ultimate Yes: 35th Anniversary Collection]]'', which reached number 10 in the UK charts,<ref name=officialchartsuk/> their highest-charting album since 1991, and number 131 in the U.S.<ref name=allmusicalbumchart/> During 2003 and 2004, Rhino also released remastered editions of all Yes' studio albums up to, and including, ''90125'', all featuring rare and previously unreleased bonus tracks. These editions would be collected in 2013 as ''[[The Studio Albums 1969–1987]]'' box set, with ''Big Generator'' also receiving the same treatment.

On 26 January 2004, the film ''[[Yesspeak]]'' premiered in a number of select theatres, followed by a closed-circuit live acoustic performance of the group. Both ''Yesspeak'' and the acoustic performance, titled ''[[Yes Acoustic: Guaranteed No Hiss]]'', were released on DVD later that year. A [[List of Yes concert tours (2000s–10s)#35th Anniversary Tour|35th anniversary tour]] followed in 2004 which was documented on the DVD ''[[Songs from Tsongas]]'', released in 2005.

In 2004, Squire, Howe and White reunited for one night only with former members [[Trevor Horn]], [[Trevor Rabin]] and [[Geoff Downes]] during a show celebrating Horn's career, performing three Yes songs. The show video was released in DVD in 2008 under the name ''Trevor Horn and Friends: Slaves to the Rhythm''.<ref name=horn2004>{{cite web|title=2004 concert with Trevor Horn|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75O9XiiYHPA |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/75O9XiiYHPA| archive-date=11 December 2021 |url-status=live|website=[[YouTube]]| date=19 June 2011 |access-date=22 September 2017}}{{cbignore}}</ref><ref name="SlavesToTheRythm">{{cite web|title=Trevor Horn and Friends: Slaves to Rhythm|url=https://www.popmatters.com/review/108749-trevor-horn-and-friends-slaves-to-rhythm/|website=Popmatter.com|date=23 July 2009|access-date=22 September 2017}}</ref> On 18 March 2003, minor planet [[7707 Yes|(7707) Yes]] was named in honour of the band.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/special/rocknroll/0007707.html|title=(7707) Yes|publisher=Cbat.eps.harvard.edu|access-date=22 September 2017}}</ref>
