Dua Lipa releasing live album to go with CBS special ‘An Evening with Dua Lipa’

Dua Lipa is releasing a live album that documents her upcoming CBS concert special, An Evening with Dua Lipa.

Set to air Dec. 15, the concert was recorded at London’s famed Royal Albert Hall and features Dua performing the songs from her album Radical Optimism with a 53-piece orchestra, 14-person choir and a seven-piece band. It also includes interviews with Dua talking about her life and career.

The album, due Dec. 6, features Dua’s reimagined versions of hits like “Houdini,” “Training Season,” “Dance the Night,” “Levitating” and her collaboration with Elton John, “Cold Heart,” featuring a surprise appearance by Elton.

Dua says in a statement, “For the longest time, I’ve had this idea to reimagine my music with an orchestra, and when I was making Radical Optimism, I was constantly thinking about the live element and how these songs would transform on stage, so when The Royal Albert Hall show came up, it presented itself as the perfect opportunity to not only reconstruct these songs, but also celebrate them in such a beautiful and intimate way.”

“The experience was entirely thrilling and equally rewarding. It was a dream come true, and something I’ll always take with me,” she adds.
