THE LIVE SHOW
What Stevie Wonder concerts are like
Stevie Wonder concerts are long and unpredictable in the best way. He leads a large band with horns and backing singers, stretches songs out with improvised solos on keyboard and harmonica, and often talks at length about music, politics and love. Between songs he often plays short snippets of other artists' music or explains how a song came together.
The second half is where the hits pile up: Superstition, Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours and Isn't She Lovely. He likes to split the crowd into sections for call-and-response singing, and shows regularly run well past two hours.
Tips for the Fornebu show
- Do not book a tight train or taxi home; the show can run much longer than the ticket suggests.
- Seats with a clear view of the keyboards are worth it, as much of the night centres on his playing.
- Expect to be asked to sing. He will keep going until the crowd gets it right.
New to the music? Songs in the Key of Life is the album to hear first; a large part of any Stevie Wonder set comes from it.
