Alicia Keys and Dimash sing at 8Wonder Winter 2025: When true artistic value reigns

8Wonder Winter 2025 is not only a stage for famous names, but also a gathering place for two of the most vibrant and powerful voices in the world: Alicia Keys and Dimash. An event that marks a new standard of enjoyment - where "real voices" are honored and true artistic values ​​are crowned in the heart of Hanoi.

Two powerful vocalists, icons of top-tier live performances, come to Vietnam.

If we consider 8Wonder Winter 2025, held from December 6th to 12th at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (Dong Anh, Hanoi ), as a "symphony of stars," then the voices of Alicia Keys and Dimash Kudaibergen are the most powerful low notes, representing the pinnacle of live performance art.

Alicia Keys is not only the owner of 17 Grammy Awards but is also hailed as one of the most influential female artists of the past two decades. Her name is associated with classic ballads like "Fallin'," "No One," and "Girl on Fire"—songs that not only dominated the charts but also became a source of comfort and solace for millions of people worldwide .

What makes Alicia Keys special isn't her masterful vocal technique or the number of awards she's won, but the "life" of her voice: every time she takes the stage, she transforms the space into a symphony of genuine emotion, sometimes tenderly poignant, other times intensely explosive. For her, music isn't just a studio product, but a vibrant living experience, where each lyric is a story that is both personal and resonates with the feelings of an entire generation.

Alicia Keys' appearance on the Hanoi stage is not only a major milestone for Vietnamese music, but also opens up a rare opportunity for audiences to directly experience the live vocals that have captivated major music festivals around the world. This is also Alicia Keys' first time performing in Vietnam – a special event, as she rarely appears in Asia, and this opportunity is unlikely to be repeated in the near future.

Dimash Kudaibergen – A rare “gem” of world music

If Alicia Keys is the representative of American soul and R&B, Dimash Kudaibergen is a global phenomenon from Kazakhstan, known as “the man with 6 octaves” - an almost unprecedented feat in contemporary music. Dimash once stunned the world with his ability to switch between nuances: from a powerful, romantic bass voice like a Russian ballad, to rare high notes, “beyond physical limits”.

What makes Dimash loved by millions of fans is not only his superb vocal skills, but also the way he uses his voice to tell stories, touching the hearts of audiences regardless of language and cultural differences. In his live performances, each of Dimash's performances is always an almost mesmerizing experience, where he can "paint with sound", sometimes gentle and deep, sometimes explosively dramatic.

Experts consider Dimash a "hidden gem" of the music world, possessing exceptional talent but rarely appearing in mainstream music markets like Vietnam. Therefore, the participation of both Alicia Keys and Dimash at 8Wonder Winter 2025 is an unprecedented event, marking a turning point in bringing Vietnamese audiences directly into contact with these icons of "ultimate vocals" recognized worldwide: live performances that are even more emotional and outstanding than the recorded versions.

8Wonder makes a difference through artistic value.

The appearance of Alicia Keys and Dimash at 8Wonder Winter 2025 not only guarantees the quality of the event organized by Vingroup Corporation, but also demonstrates its long-term vision: steadfastly bringing authentic artistic experiences to Vietnamese audiences, contributing to elevating their artistic tastes.

In a diverse entertainment market, 8Wonder has chosen a different path: alongside top-tier international artists, the event showcases exceptional talents, internationally acclaimed but not yet widely known in Vietnam. Inviting Dimash – an artist possessing rare vocal technique – is clear evidence of this strategy, emphasizing the "live" experience and the true value of the performance for the audience.

This approach has transformed 8Wonder from a stage that brought together "big names" into a bridge between the domestic audience and international standards of artistic appreciation. When talented vocalists are celebrated, and when the quality of live performances becomes a key criterion, Vietnamese audiences will gradually become accustomed to evaluating art not only by popularity, but by the class and actual value of the performance.

The 8Wonder Winter stage is helping to reshape viewing habits: taking the public from listening to studio recordings to enjoying high-quality live performances, where each moment is not just a show, but a cultural experience - an opportunity to share the world's artistic rhythm.
