(Radio.com) Stevie Wonder is embarking on the most high-profile tour he has had in years as he crosses the country playing his classic 1976 full-length, Songs in the Key of Life, in its entirety. Turns out, this is just one of a few new endeavors the legendary songwriter has up his sleeve.

In an interview with Billboard, Wonder revealed that eight songs from When the World Began, a new set of orchestral arrangements of classic Wonder songs, are complete. the project is a collaboration with David Foster and will feature Andrea Bocelli guesting on a rendition of "Isn't She Lovely."

"He had this idea of me doing a project with him and producing something with him where we'd take some of the songs I've done and give them a whole other interpretation by using a symphony orchestra," Wonder told Billboard.

This project will not be the only new Stevie Wonder collection on the horizon. Through the Eyes of Wonder, Wonder's first album of completely new material since 2005, is also underway. Read more here.
