Share

An album containing Whitney Houston‘s first live performances in South Africa will mark three decades since the late singer’s visit there.

The Concert for a New South Africa (Durban) will come out on Nov. 8, 30 years to the day since she performed at that city’s Kings Park Stadium.

The performance featured many of her greatest hits, including a 10-plus–minute “I Will Always Love You,” “Saving All My Love for You,” and “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.” Houston also performed in Johannesburg and Cape Town on her visit celebrating the end of apartheid and President Nelson Mandela’s election win.

Houston’s estate is teasing the release with video of her emotional rendition of “I Have Nothing” at the concert.

The full performance, with remastered audio and 4K resolution, will be available to view in select cinemas later this month.

Full details are on a special website. The album will be available digitally as well as on CD and vinyl.
