Lea Salonga's new holiday album 'Sounding Joy' is coming this November!

Christmas came early!

Lea Salonga is releasing a brand-new album this November just in time for the holidays!

On Instagram, the Tony Award-winning singer-actress excitedly announced that "Sounding Joy" will be released on November 1.

The "very special release" includes new tunes from Lea, as well as beloved Christmas classics and a duet with her friend, "American Idol" superstar Clay Aiken.

The Disney Legend added that aside from the album's release, she will also be taking a "Sounding Joy" holiday tour in select cities across North America beginning this December.

"Sounding Joy" is Lea's first holiday album in over 20 years. She previously released a holiday album in 2001, titled "Lea Salonga: The Christmas Album."

The "Sounding Joy" album is now available for pre-order on Broadway Records online, with the CD album priced at $16.95. Limited signed copies are also available, priced at $75 each.

Lea will be returning to the theater stage with "Request sa Radyo" from Oct. 10 to 20 at the Samsung Performing Arts Theater, Circuit Makati. The play is a Filipino adaptation of Franz Xaver Kroetz's "Wunschkonzert" or "Request Program."

"Request sa Radyo" also stars Hollywood breakout star and BAFTA nominee Dolly De Leon, with the two acclaimed Filipina artists taking turns to perform the one-woman, wordless play.

Lea will also bring her "Stage, Screen & Everything in Between" tour to Manila on Nov. 4 and 5 at The Theatre at Solaire in Parañaque City.

The two-night show will be directed by her brother, Gerard Salonga.
