According to The Independent, the band, along with Morgan Nicholls,[1] spent the day after the Leeds Carling Weekend recording three tracks for Live from Abbey Road, a new Channel 4 series.[2] The venue was EMI's Abbey Road Studios.
Dan Newell, the band's live trumpeter, was drafted in for the first time at this performance. Matthew Bellamy can be seen playing/improvising a piece on the piano on video, which bears a slight resemblance to some of the piano work in Exogenesis: Symphony. It is pure speculation however whether this was one of the snippets of piano Bellamy used to put together the Symphony.
The recording was initially broadcast two times. The first was on 'More 4', 23rd Febuary 2007 23:00 UTC. The second was on 'Channel 4', 26th February 2007.[1] Since then, it has been broadcast several more times on various channels.

You can watch the full performance here. The original pro-shot footage can be found on MuseBootlegs here. Since then, there have been two HD versions added to the site: first of which can be found here which claims to have higher video quality than the other but lower audio quality but has a large amount of text present on the screen. The second can be found here which claims to have higher audio quality than the first but lower video quality with no on-screen text.
A television broadcast audio rip in lossless (FLAC) format can be found here.
