The Voice Lives On: Moises Powers Whitney Houston's Return to the Stage

Moises' AI stem separation technology extracts Whitney Houston's vocals from original recordings, enabling live orchestral performances across a seven-city tour

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Whitney Houston's voice moved generations, and through a collaboration between The Estate of Whitney E. Houston, Primary Wave Music, and Park Avenue Artists, it has now returned to the stage. The Voice of Whitney: A Symphonic Celebration, which debuted in August 2024, brings Houston's legendary vocals to concert halls across US cities. The concert transports fans into Houston's musical world, as live orchestras perform alongside Houston's vocals and rare footage. Audiences experience the power of Houston's voice in a live setting, with a breathtaking fusion of technology and artistry that celebrates her enduring legacy.

To bring this unique performance to life, The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and its creative partner, Park Avenue Artists, needed isolated vocals from Houston's songs. However, many of her key original multitrack recordings are no longer available, presenting a significant technical obstacle for the project.

To overcome this challenge, they turned to Moises, the AI-powered music platform with stem separation technology that isolates individual instruments and vocals from recordings. Using Moises' advanced algorithms, Park Avenue Artists successfully extracted Houston's vocals from her songs, producing near-studio quality audio that enabled the creative team to fulfill their vision while honoring her legacy.

"This project demanded exceptionally high-caliber stem separation, something Moises leads the industry in achieving," says Moises CEO Geraldo Ramos. "We had to isolate Whitney's vocals from fully mixed recordings without compromising the emotional power of her performance. A concert like this simply wouldn't have been possible five years ago, before stem separation technology reached the precision and fidelity we're now able to deliver."

"We knew this had to be done right," says Pat Houston, Executor of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston. "Moises and our partner Park Avenue Artists elevated the idea with the heart, care, and creative excellence that Whitney always embodied. The result is something truly special: a gift for longtime fans and a powerful introduction for a new generation discovering her voice."

"This project demonstrates how legacy artists and their estates can create meaningful experiences for music lovers through the thoughtful use of AI technology," says Ross Michaels, co-president of Park Avenue Artists. "The Voice of Whitney is the first of several planned collaborations that will use AI to illuminate new dimensions of an artist's work. It's a powerful example of how AI can honor artists' legacies while enriching the audience experience in beautiful and respectful ways."

Music AI, the company behind Moises, will continue working with Park Avenue Artists on future projects, providing access to advanced audio models beyond those available in the consumer Moises app. These collaborations aim to help other legacy artist estates create respectful, AI-powered musical experiences.
