Performance NotesThe BBC Proms celebrates some of Stevie Wonder’s most iconic work with conductor Jules Buckley and his Orchestra, joined by Cory Henry: singer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and keyboardist, for performances including Higher Ground, Living for the City and Don’t You Worry ’Bout a Thing.

The impact of Stevie Wonder’s 1973 hit album Innervisions is still felt by musicians and listeners to this day. Part of a triumvirate of consecutive Grammy-winning albums, Innervisions highlighted Wonder’s genius work both as performer and studio producer.

The event was broadcast on BBC Radio 3.
