Alicia Keys<\/a> has reimagined her 2004 track \u2018If I Ain\u2019t Got You\u2019 with an orchestra featuring over 70 women of colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The track was recorded for the Netflix<\/a> series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story<\/em>, which arrived last week, and has been released with an accompanying music video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bridgerton<\/em> spin-off series follows a young Charlotte (India Amarteifio) as she begins to understand her power and the meaning of love. The story sees her embark on a life-changing marriage with young King George (Corey Mylchreest), while spearheading a societal shift that will lead to generations of change in the Bridgerton<\/em> world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keys has brought together musicians from all over the world to create this unique orchestra, called Queen Charlotte\u2019s Global Orchestra, both for the Netflix series and for the song\u2019s 20th anniversary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the video, the orchestra, led by South Africa\u2019s first Black female conductor Ofentse Pitse, wear\u00a0Bridgerton<\/em>-era costumes and make-up, as Keys sits at a grand piano in front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe entire idea was quite ambitious,\u201d Keys told\u00a0Billboard<\/a><\/em>. \u201cI feel like it\u2019s going to open the minds of many people to realize that women of color belong everywhere and we\u2019ve always been everywhere. It\u2019s magical.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She continued: \u201cI know they\u2019re gonna be very emotional when they see it because the women who were there were extremely emotional. Our conductor [Ofentse Pitse] said, \u2018It feels like when we have an orchestra of all women of color from all over the world, that we\u2019re finally doing something right.\u2019 This is what our ancestors never experienced.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018If I Ain\u2019t Got You (Orchestra Version)\u2019 features on the soundtrack to Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story<\/em>, <\/em>which also includes instrumental covers of songs from Beyonc\u00e9<\/a>, SZA<\/a>, Whitney Houston<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
