The "Cheek to Cheek LIVE!" concert performance by Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga will debut this fall.

This announcement coincides with today's long-awaited release of their "Cheek to Cheek" album.

The musical experience was captured this summer in stunning Ultra HD at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Frederick P. Rose Hall in New York in front of a live audience of fans and invited guests.

Thanks to LG Electronics, the official Ultra HD sponsor of "Cheek to Cheek: LIVE!," Amazon Instant Video customers will be able to stream the performance in the highest resolution at no added cost when it becomes available later this year.

Produced by THIRTEEN Productions LLC for WNET, the high-definition version of the concert, "Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga: Cheek to Cheek LIVE!" will also air nationwide on "Great Performances" series on PBS.

"We couldn't think of a better way to enhance the LG 4K Ultra HD experience than by teaming up with Amazon and such iconic and such extraordinary performers as Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga," said David VanderWaal, head of marketing for LG Electronics USA. "Literally hundreds of thousands of Americans are purchasing LG 4K Ultra HD TVs this year, and they're clamoring for more Ultra HD content. We hope they enjoy this experience as much as we enjoy bringing it to them."

With the help of the LG Smart TV+ webOS(TM) connected TV platform, users will enjoy 4K content along lightning-quick transitions between broadcast TV, streaming services and external devices, with speeds similar to regular channel switching.
