Stevie Wonder plays a sold-out Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam
Stevie Wonder, 76, performed his 1975 album Songs in the Key of Life in full at a sold-out concert at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam.
Soul singer Stevie Wonder performed his 1975 album Songs in the Key of Life in full at the Ziggo Dome, the large concert hall in Amsterdam. The concert was sold out.
Wonder is now 76. The show brought one of the best-known names in soul music back to the stage in the Dutch capital for a full evening devoted to a single album.
Elias Mazian, an artist and longtime Wonder fan who was at the concert, says Wonder has been an inspiration to him since childhood. "I think he makes music that finds a direct way to your heart. But he has also been incredibly influential," Mazian says. In his view, there would have been no R&B without Wonder.
"He is simply a child prodigy who made good on it," Mazian says. "There is no one like Stevie. That is why tonight is so special."
