It’s been more than 40 years since Whitney Houston rocked the world stage with her record-breaking debut album, and the Kansas City Symphony is thrilled to honor her spellbinding, unrivaled legacy. Featuring a captivating blend of original studio vocals and newly remastered recordings, this tribute pairs Whitney’s treasured voice with reimagined orchestrations of “I Wanna Dance With Somebody,” “Higher Love,” “I Will Always Love You” and many more of her most enduring hits. How will you know it’s a night like no other? Because the music plays alongside never-before-seen videos, historic performance footage and intimate interviews. Through it all, Whitney tells her own story — in her own voice.
