Live at the Royal Albert Hall (Beth Hart video)

Live at the Royal Albert Hall is a concert recording by American singer-songwriter Beth Hart, recorded in the Royal Albert Hall on 4 May 2018, [4] and released six months after her New York concert album on 30 November 2018 by Provogue in video format as Blu-ray, DVD and digital, and as a live music album on two CDs, three LPs, and as digital.[5] Hart's performance, from belted out songs to intimate piano performance that reduced the 5000 seat venue to the feel of an intimate club, took the audience on a journey of many of her best songs and showcasing her journey through life.[6] Hart dedicated the song "Close to My Fire" to her mother, who was one of the audience members of this concert.[7] As well as putting on a musical tour-de-force, Hart opened up about her life and spun out intimate, off-the-cuff stories as she moved through her set.[8]
