The Exogenesis: Symphony is one of Muse's most complex works and because of this made it difficult to perform. It has never been attempted in full due to Matt being frightened that it wouldn't turn out well. For that reason alone Parts II and III were never performed during The Resistance tour, and Part II has never been performed at all.
The Exogenesis: Symphony is one of Muse's most complex works and, because of this, is difficult to perform live. It has never been attempted in full due to Matt being frightened that it wouldn't turn out well. For that reason alone Parts II and III were never performed during The Resistance tour, and Part II has never been performed at all.


Overture is the only part of the Exogenesis: Symphony to have been performed more than once. It was performed relatively often during The Resistance tour, usually the intro to the concert. After 2011 though, the song was permanently dropped from setlists. This is likely due to the song's complexity as well as its lack of significance to the theme of The 2nd Law and the Drones tours.
Overture is the only part of the Exogenesis: Symphony to have been performed more than once. It was performed very often during The Resistance Tour, usually as the first song of the encore, though it was occasionally played at the start of the show. Dom played timpani drums during the songs intro live like on the album, and during arena performances the band played the song while raised up on the towers.  


Fans do not seem to mind it being dropped that much, however, as in a poll of 500 fans conducted in November 2015, out of a total thirty songs that had not been played since The Resistance era, fans voted Overture as the twenty-fifth most requested song to make a return to setlists.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20151126224641/http://strawpoll.me/6086378/r]</ref>
After 2011 though, the song was permanently dropped from setlists, likely due to the song's complexity, and it looks very unlikely the song will return. Surprisingly however, the song was an option at the [[London Shepherds Bush_Empire 2017 (gig)|2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire]] by request gig, indicating the band hasn't given up on the song yet.

This page contains a list of all known performances of Exogenesis: Symphony Part I (Overture).

Analysis and Explanation

The Exogenesis: Symphony is one of Muse's most complex works and, because of this, is difficult to perform live. It has never been attempted in full due to Matt being frightened that it wouldn't turn out well. For that reason alone Parts II and III were never performed during The Resistance tour, and Part II has never been performed at all.

Overture is the only part of the Exogenesis: Symphony to have been performed more than once. It was performed very often during The Resistance Tour, usually as the first song of the encore, though it was occasionally played at the start of the show. Dom played timpani drums during the songs intro live like on the album, and during arena performances the band played the song while raised up on the towers.

After 2011 though, the song was permanently dropped from setlists, likely due to the song's complexity, and it looks very unlikely the song will return. Surprisingly however, the song was an option at the 2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire by request gig, indicating the band hasn't given up on the song yet.
