In celebration of what would’ve marked Whitney Houston‘s 40th year in the music industry as a recording artist and performer, the late diva’s estate has teamed with Primary Wave Music to launch a series of concert events in her honor.

Titled ‘The Voice of Whitney: A Symphonic Celebration,’ the Fall leg of the tour will not only feature “the original master and remastered recordings of Whitney’s vocals set to new arrangements in a unique and one-of- a-kind reinterpretation of her classic hits and landmark songs” but will also gift attendees with a peek at never-before-seen video footage and interviews.

Look inside to see if the North American jaunt will be coming to a city near you.

Kicking off in Cincinnati on September 20, the trek is set to touch California, Illinois, Indiana, and more before wrapping up in Mesa, Arizona, on November 22.

“We are excited about the ‘The Voice of Whitney: A Symphonic Celebration’ tour and Whitney’s 40th Anniversary,” Pat Houston, executor of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and President of The Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation, said. “There’s so much excitement happening around this tour, even the discussions and plans to take the tour internationally, where there’s a great amount of interest, which is where Whitney did a majority of her concert tours throughout her career. ‘The Voice of Whitney’ is a unique concert experience and she narrates the entire concert.”
