Wim Sonneveld (1917-1974) was a Dutch cabaret artist and singer. He is considered to be one of the 'Great Three' of Dutch cabaret (with Toon Hermans and Wim Kan). In the Netherlands, 'cabaret' is a kind of theatre in which someone, usually in a one man show, tells a story or series of anecdotes (personal or critical about politics/society or just hilarious) with jokes and songs.
Sonneveld made over 25 cabaret shows (with his own cabaret group) in the years 1943-1959. In 1957 he played in the American movie Silk Stockings, alongside Fred Astaire. Back in the Netherlands, he asked Seth Gaaikema to translate the musical My fair lady and played the role of Henry Higgins for three years (1960-1962). He died very unexpected, of a heart attack, in 1974, only 56 years old.
Some of his most beloved songs are 'The village'/'Het dorp' (translation of the French song 'La montagne'); 'Margootje' (by Annie M.G. Schmidt); and 'Along the canals of Amsterdam'/'Aan de Amsterdamse grachten' (by Pieter Goemans).
