The most important and favorite duets of Sting in a special collection.
Sting brings together in one album the most iconic collaborations of his glorious career.
From the melancholy "Desert Rose" with raï singer Cheb Mami and the sensual groove of "It's Probable Me" with Eric Clapton to the animated "44/876" with Shaggy, which gave him the 17th and most recent Grammy Award of his career, Sting's collaborations have become cornerstones in the rule of music.
To celebrate these collaborations, Sting included in a separate collection some of his favorite duets with artists such as Mary J. Blige, Herbie Hancock, Eric Clapton, Annie Lennox, Charles Aznavour, Mylène Farmer, Shaggy, Melody Gardot , Gashi and others.
The album "Duets" also contains the brand new song "September" in collaboration with the Italian Zucchero. The production was done by Sting himself and the mix by Robert Orton, who won four Grammys.
At the same time, a brand new duet of Sting and the African artist Shirazee on the song "Englishman / African In New York" is released on digital platforms.
This new version is inspired by Shirazee's remake of Sting's classic hit "Englishman In New York".
The British artist describes this musical encounter as "a message of positivity and hope in these dark times".
On the occasion of the release of "Duets", Sting launches a new interactive website that describes each track of the album with audiovisual content and commentary by the singer himself.
The site chronologically explores the album and invites visitors on a musical journey that spans from 1992 to the present.
