"There's new music in the air," tweeted the singer. "I'm happy to announce a new solo record for the autumn of 2020. I've done so much in my career but the one thing I've never recorded is a record with an orchestra.
"Original songs with big contemporary orchestral arrangements. I better be off then . . . " he added.
Earlier this week Barlow had teased that he had "a plan" for the next couple of years.
He told his fans: "It's been a long time since I've had to think about what's next for me. It's been nice to have the time & peace to work it out. I'm following what my heart's telling me. I type this while sat at my piano..."
The singer-songwriter's last solo studio album was 2013's Since I Saw You Last.
