Asia will release their live album Symfonia - Live In Bulgaria 2013 on February 24.

The show was recorded during the Sounds Of The Ages Festival at Plovdiv’s Second Century Roman Theater in September 2013, featuring the lineup of John Wetton, Carl Palmer, Geoff Downes along with Sam Coulson.

Asia were also joined by Plovdiv’s Philharmonic Orchestra on some songs.

The package will be available on 2CD/DVD, Blu-Ray and MP3. Pre-order it on Amazon.

Wetton, who is on the road to recovery after undergoing surgery and chemotherapy for a tumour last year, says: “The show in the glorious Roman Theater of Plovdiv, with orchestra, along with the massive Sweden Rock Festival and the shows in the UK and the show European tour thereafter, were the first dates of the new chapter of Asia – and in my opinion, the band has never sounded better.”

It was recently announced that Asia will tour the US with Journey.
