The Compositions World Tour was a concert tour in 1990 by American recording artist Anita Baker in support of her Platinum selling album Compositions. The tour was to kick-off in early May with four sold-out shows at the Sunrise Music Theatre in Miami, Florida.[1] The dates where soon cancelled due to Baker becoming vocally ill the prior week before the scheduled shows. The tour resumed in late May with dates scheduled in North America and Europe. Baker performed four-consecutive shows in various cities in North America, which included Merrillville, Indiana and Miami, Florida.[2][3]
