The One To Buy

"Amidst the stunning romantic backdrop of Andre Rieu's home town of Maastricht, this concert (which is shown in two parts), produces one of those rare moments of perfection that is thankfully captured on DVD. It features the three sopranos Carmen Monarcha, Carla Maffioletti, and Suzan Erens along with the always enrapturing Platin Tenors and fireworks! The streets beside the famous and beautifully lit square are filled with restaurants overflowing with party-goers ready to take to the streets in waltz.
Highlights of this concert include the CONCIERTO DE ARANJUEZ, THE SWINGING BELLS OF LIMBURG, SECOND WALTZ, I COULD HAVE DANCED ALL NIGHT, and LIBIAMO if you want to see a party :D
All in all a wonderful concert where the crowd is reluctant to leave and insists on throwing in a few tracks of their own throughout the evening. The whole concert is performed in the open air and interspersed with shots from the surrounding area all of which happens around a violinist with a cheeky look on his face as the crowd calls for an encore.
If you enjoy this concert try 'ROMANTIC PARADISE', LA VIE EST BELLE (if only for the rendition of BOLERO), and SCHRONBRUNN LIVE IN VIENNA. All those in search of eye-candy, proceed to CHRISTMAS WITH ANDRE RIEU.

Remake

"This is a remake of the Homecomming. It is an exact copy so since I already had the homecomming it was a waste of money."
Beautiful music

"What we all expect from Rieu. Exciting music, enthusiasm from the performers and great fun to listen to and watch."
