"It's incredibly surreal for me to be celebrating the 10th anniversary of songs in A minor," says Keys. "Looking back on the journey, I'm truly moved by my fans and friends who've been with me and have supported me throughout my career. This album is possibly the most precious to me, as your first album only happens once, and so songs in A minor will always hold a special place in my life that's filled with amazing memories. I'm so proud that the songs are still being enjoyed around the world, and I'm crazy excited to share, through the 10th Anniversary Edition, songs never heard before, and even more of my debut album with you."
Alicia Keys will commemorate the 10th Anniversary by performing an intimate concert for her fans at New York City's historic Beacon Theatre on June 30th. The show, titled "Piano & I: A One Night Only Event With Alicia Keys," will feature Keys accompanied only by her piano. The night of songs and storytelling will take audiences through the entire songs in A minor album as well as many of Alicia's classic hits that followed. Tickets for the show will go on sale on May 6, 2011 via Ticket Master.
Keys will also perform on the BET Awards on June 26th and an hour-long special on Alicia and songs in A minor will air on the network in late June around the album release.
