Airs Saturday, June 6, 2009 at 9:30 p.m. on KPBS TV

Introduced to the world at the age of 12 as “Little Stevie Wonder,” superstar Stevie Wonder may have dropped the “Little” since then, but certainly not his unique gift for a catchy melody and his expert fusion of soul, funk and R&B styles. Signed to Motown Records by Berry Gordy in 1963, “Little Stevie” rocketed to stardom with hits that included My Cherie Amour and Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours), producing nine #1 records and amassing a staggering 22 Grammy Awards over the course of four decades. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Motown Records, GREAT PERFORMANCES presents Wonder in a tour-de-force concert performance at London’s O2 Arena. Watch a preview online.
