For the first time EVER – themed André Rieu CD compilations!
André’s Choice is a new series of compilations especially chosen by André. Eight titles, each containing 15 tracks, traverse a wide variety of subjects – moods (Happiness), nature (Seasons), occasions (Weddings), genres (Marches) as well as music familiar through the movies and music to accompany you while you cook.
ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: André’s Marches
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
España Cani
Heigh-Ho (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
Spanish March
Florentine March
March of the Aviators
Blaze away
Egyptian Marsch
Triumphal March ( Aïda)
Persian March
Oh when the Saints
Seventy-six trombones
The Washington Post
The Stars and stripes forever
Radetzky March
Marche Militaire
Far from having militaristic or stentorian overtones, Marches are a lot of fun for André and this collection brings together some of his most oft-performed in concert. Though many of them have been composed by the Strauss family, they pay tribute to various parts of the world – Florence, Spain, Persia and Egypt, for instance. America blazes in with Stars and Stripes, The Washington Post and 76 shining trombones, and the proceedings are rounded off with a rousing Marche Militaire by Schubert.

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: André’s Seasons
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
G’schichten aus dem Wienerwald
Swan Lake (Moderato)
Le Cygne (Carnival of the Animals)
Flower Duet from Lakmé
Thorn Birds: theme
Herbst in Venedig
Frühlingsblüten (Sakura)
Village Swallows from Austria
Roses from the South
Thunder and Lightning
Winter (Largo from The Four Seasons)
The Red Rose Café
The Rose
The Tulip song
Winter Wonderland
Few things are as beautiful as the fall of an autumn leaf and the changing hues of a distant landscape. Nature and the seasons are beautifully captured in André’s Seasons, from the tales whispered by the Vienna Woods, to the beautiful spring blossoms from Japan (Sakura), and Ceylon (the Lakmé “Flower Duet”, forever entrenched in our minds thanks to its use in the British Airways commercials!). Roses get pride of place too! Birds flit across the landscape in the form of village swallows (Strauss) and gliding swans (Tchaikovsky and Saint-Saëns) to the mythical Australian ‘thorn bird’. No “seasons” anthology would be complete without Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, from which we here the quiet musings of Winter, and the CD is rounded off with a Christmas perennial – Winter Wonderland.

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: Around the World
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
Sphärenklänge (Music of the Spheres: waltz)
Far from Home, Largo from the "New World Symphony"
Scarborough Fair
In a Persian Market
The Girl from Ipanema
Granada
Torna a Surriento
Don’t cry for me Argentina
I still call Australia home
La Montanara
Italiana
Vieni sul mar
La Vie en rose; Padam Padam; Sous les ponts de paris
This land is mine
España Cañï
Beginning with the most global of all waltzes – Johann Strauss’s Music of the Spheres, this CD is a snapshot of the many lands André’s music has taken him to, and to which he pays tribute. The Girl from Ipanema and Granada are two Latin perennials. Italiana is a medley of Respighi tunes, and La Montanara and Vieni sul mar pay further tribute to Italy. The French medley beginning with La Vie en rose brings three favourites from that land. Ketèlbey’s In a Persian Market is a tribute to the orient, complete with bazaar and colourful costumes. Far from home – a reworking of the central section of Dvorák’s symphony ‘From the New World’ introduces a sense of nostalgia and longing, as does the following track, Scarborough Fair, made all the more so by the beautiful voice of Mirusia weaving in and out of André’s violin. And there’s a tribute to André’s new adopted homeland, of course, with I Still Call Australia Home.

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: André in Hollywood
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
Tara’s Theme (Gone with the Wind)
Dances with Wolves: main theme
My heart will go on (Titanic)
Over the rainbow (The Wizard of Oz)
Romance (The Gadfly)
The Godfather: main theme
Lara's Theme (Dr. Zhivago)
Moon River (Breakfast at Tiffany’s)
Sirtaki: Zorba’s Dance (Zorba the Greek)
Strangers in Paradise (Kismet)
The Third Man: main theme
Edelweiss (The Sound of Music)
Jill’s America (Once Upon a time in the West)
The Windmills of your Mind (The Thomas Crown Affair)
Boléro (10)
The movies opened up a whole new world for classical music and – like it or not – they put classical music on a pedestal that it mightn’t otherwise have enjoyed. Nothing wrong with that… a tender on-screen kiss, longing for one’s homeland, a character’s innermost feelings which neither words nor actions might reveal, or the sense of euphoria at the end of a film when you’re rooted in your seat and the end credits roll through. Fifteen films, every one of them hits, every one of them with an unforgettable piece of music are here included.

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: Farewell – Music to Soothe the Spirit
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
My way
Pie Jesu
Benedictus (St. Cecilia Mass)
Londonderry Air
Méditation
Tristesse
Edelweiss (The Sound of Music)
Adagio (Albinoni)
Air (Bach)
Intermezzo Sinfonico from Cavalleria Rusticana
My heart will go on
Åse’s Death: Peer Gynt Suite (Grieg)
Nightingale Serenade
The Last Rose
Amazing Grace
Music has an amazing power to heal. It’s something André’s fans have brought home to him time and time again. It can lift our spirits when we’re sad or lonely, when we’re leaving something so precious to us behind (remember the scene in The Sound of Music when Captain Von Trapp mesmerises his family with his rendition of Edelweiss?) or, indeed, when we’re helpless at the loss of a dear one and no amount of physical comfort will do. It’s then that the spiritual power of music comes to the fore. Thus came about the idea for this CD, built, largely, from music that André’s fans have told him time again have helped mend and repair, comfort and guide.

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: Feast
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
Second Waltz
Morgenblätter
Komm, Zigány
Eljen a Magyar!
Habañera: Carmen
Heut’ ist der schönste Tag
O mio babbino caro
Marino Waltz
Strauß Party
Zugaben (Wiener Walzerpotpourri)
Mei Muatterl war a Weanerin
Wine, Woman and Song
Tea for two
Yackety sax
Funiculi Funicula
One of André’s favourite hobbies – in those rare spare moments! – is cooking. This album was put together because there’s nothing nicer than having some energetic music wafting around you and mingling in the air with the aromas of your culinary efforts. Morgenblätter (Morning Papers) is ideal as you think about your morning cup of coffee and your breakfast – it’s ritualistic, almost! Eljen a Magyar is bound to help you produce your best Goulash yet! Tea for Two is for tea for two, Wine, Woman and Song will help that glass of wine go down all the smoother (…if help is indeed needed!) and Funiculi Funicula will bring that extra vigour to your pasta tossing!

ANDRÉ RIEU | André’s Choice: Happiness
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
Strauss & Co
Blue Spanish Eyes
What a wonderful world
Greensleeves
Largo
Vilja-lied
Je veux rever de toi, mon amour
Chianti Lied
Wie sjoen os Limburg is
On the beautiful blue Danube
Wolgalied
Auf Ferienreisen
Cachucha Galopp
Olé Guapa
Hallelujah
Ask an André Rieu fan the single feeling most engendered when he/she experiences his music and the majority will say – “It makes me happy”. And so with that in mind, André decided to put together an album that would bring sheer happiness to his listeners. And, indeed, music that brings him happiness. Night after night he performs the perennial Strauss waltz The Beautiful Blue Danube and it never fails to inspire him. Off to a rollicking start with Strauss & Co, we are reminded of our Wonderful World, are introduced to the beautiful Limburg district from whence André hails, we lie in green fields and watch the clouds pass by as we’re seduced by Greensleeves or the ‘Vilja-lied’ from Lehár’s The Merry Widow, and we finish with an exuberant shout of communal joy with the immortal ‘Hallelujah’ from Handel’s Messiah.

ANDRÉ RIEU
André’s Choice: One Hand, One Heart – Music for Weddings
ARTISTS
Andre Rieu
TRACK LISTING
Trumpet Voluntary
Barcarole
Ramona
Dark Eyes
Serenata
Méditation
One Hand, One Heart
Air (Bach)
Ave Maria
Concerto pour une voix
Caro Mio Ben (Dearest, Believe Me)
Amigos para siempre (Friends for life)
Some day my prince will come
Dein ist mein ganzes Herz
Wedding March
A special occasion and the sound of André’s music go hand in hand. Or was that hand in heart…? And with that in mind, André went into the studio to record a special version of the Bernstein classic One Hand, One Heart for this album. Then realising he’d never recorded Mendlessohn’s Wedding March he decided to arrange and record that too, complete with choir. So there’s music with which to walk down the isle (Trumpet Voluntary – receiving its first CD release here!), music that floats down the balcony and through the aisle (Ave Maria, Air, Méditation and the ethereal Concerto pour une voix) as rings are exchanged. Music as one stares into the dark(?!) eyes of another and above all music to make that pledge of Friends for Life.

SHIRLEY, WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER AND OUR PARENTS WERE A LITTLE STRICTER WITH US, IT DID PAY THE DIVIDENTS LATER IN OUR LIVES? ISN'T THE TRUTH? LOTS OF HARD WORK, LESS PLAY, BUT NOW, LOOKING BACK, VERY GRATEFUL, THAT IS HOW THEY WERE. MADE, AT LEAST ME ,A MUCH MORE SUCCESSFUL PERSON. PIANO GIRL
Reply to this
When I look at my piano, I can still see my father sitting there, calling, "Sally come on over here and let's play a duet". I loved it. My father & I would sit side by side, playing our tunes. He playing well, me playing like a little girl who just started lessons. But when each song was done, he would tell me how good I sounded, how much I had improved and I would get a hug.
I dearly wish my father were still alive, so I could take him to one of Andre's concerts. I know he'd get a kick out of it, and of course, have to waltz with (he named me Sally), Little Princess.

Welcome Piano Girl. I love your name. I haven't played Piano since I was a young girl so I have forgotten everything I learned. So nice to have you as a Moderator on the blog. Have fun!! Hugs

35 years ago I took piano and organ lessons - sold my organ years ago and last year bought another organ and yesterday took my first lesson in all those years. I am now 89 and going strong remembering what I learned years ago.

Oh good for you Roberta. I think that is wonderful. It is never too later to begin again. I never took violin lessons before but I am now. I only took piano and voice as a child and teenager. Isn't it a thrill to make some music again!! Hugs to you

Actually the only song I did not know was the one from Australia, all the others I have already on other CDs, for that only one I would not buy it, too bad no new ones are on those CDs.
Reply to this
These look like they will be good to give as gifts. Just think if someone doesn't have Andre's music and they get this???? They will be fans for life!
Thanks to all!
Reply to this
Fantastic idea to give a gifts. Here is a suggestion to take it one step further. Does Andre have wine, red or white with his label on it? Put some with a CD and add some scented or unscented candles and voila, you have a gift for an anniversary, wedding, etc.
How about a gift for a sister or mother. Place one of the CD's in a basket array tied with ribbon. Inside contains seasalt bath, bath candles, soap, body lotion, pedicure items, the list is endless for ideas that would be suitable.
I was just thinking since Andre lived in Europe, he maybe has a winery or owns lands that grows grapes?
Maybe Andre, Marjorie, Pierre, and Marc might like these ideas.

ANDRE"S NEW CD"S WILL MAKE GREAT GRIFTS.NOT ONLY FOR MYSELF BUT PEOPLE I KNOW WHO ARE NOT FANS YET BUT WILL BE THEY HEAR THESE NEW CD, CAN HARDLY WAIT, HAVE THEM SENT MY WAY.THANKS ELAINE BURCH.
Reply to this
I particularly like the idea of the organization by theme. It'a nice that if you are in the mood for a particular type of music you have it on one CD.
Reply to this
Marilyn, that was my thought too. Besides the fact that there are the paintings of Marc on some of these cd covers.I have all these songs too, but I like the idea, as you said,theme.
Reply to this
Morning Marilyn: That is what I like too. Whenever I make a car cd, I have to have the up tempo songs on it. Can’t drive while I am sleeping! So something that is already pre-arranged would be perfect.
Reply to this
Yes, Sally, Marilyn, and Shirley, you are right about the theme idea. It is terrific. I really observed the paintings of Marc and they are wonderful. What a truly gifted family.
Wise choice in purchasing this collection. You are right Jeanine Ann. They are worth it.
Piano Girl, you are right about many knowledgeable people on this site. It is wonderful to read about their input and advice. Thanks to all who write in.
Sincerely,
Grace

AND WHERE DO WE ORDER THESE?
Reply to this
Hi Shirley, there is a music store in Melbourne which I heard about when Andre was in Australia. It is called Hans Music Store. I am adding a link for you and anyone who wants to order hard to find (in America) CD's and DVD's.
http://www.hansmusic.com.au/default.aspx?d=225370&c=225375&mc=387
Reply to this
Well, I know that I have most of these songs, but I don't have the beautiful art that Marc has painted, nor do I have the selection of music that go with the mood of André.
All of this music that André has selected for these cd's are wonderful, it would be nice to have them in a nice "choice" selection. It's also nice to have the words to explain the chosen selection.
I think it's very beauitful. I love the titles of the cd's to go with the mood of the music.
There is so many positive things about having "André's Choice" cd's, and I can't think of one reason why not to have it. I will definitely purchase it, if I have the opportunity to do so, and I cannot imagine not having that opportunity.
Welcome Moderator Piano!! Nice to see you!
"Piano concert Nr. 50 p. 73 Adagio (Immortal Beloved, Main Theme) from the cd "Romantic Paradise". I listen to it everyday and I close my eyes and smile when Jo Huijts plays that beautiful piano.
I was away this weekend and could listen to André as much as I wanted to, day and night it was playing. I burn my cd's to fit what I love to listen to, and it's always the calming, relaxing, soothing music choices that I love.
I need all the help I can get, and when I'm driving, soothing music has the opposite affect on me than it does with Sally
Ok, you've probably had enough of my rambling on here, so I will see you later!
Reply to this
OMG I am so excited about Andres choice. does any one know when the cds come out? probably when I am on vacation .I will be gone for thirteen days starting on the 3rd of July and ends on the 16th of july. constance ox
Reply to this
My dear Constance, I only know that they will be out in July so that covers a big chunck of time. I don't know if they will be available here but if so do you want me to get a set for you? I will be glad to do that. Some wonderful person in Australia offered to get me a set if they are not available here. I don't know if Andre's boutique will be selling them because of the import problems as with Waltzing Matilda. I will let you know the moment I have a date.
I am also praying for you Constance and hoping that all will go well for you. Just have faith and prayer will work. Hugs
Reply to this
To jeanine, I don't know what to say to you .I am speechless because of your thoughtfulness.You got me teary eyed. yes I would love for you to get them for me. I love you for that .I will always be thankful for those who reach out to people who seem to reach out to those whos health mind and spirit are going through trials.
I had better go .I just got home from work. I am tired and the place that hurts is acting up so god bless you and I will talk to you soon .constance ooooxxxx

I rang my local music shop here in Australia. They will be released on July 26 as individual cds. I didn't ask what they will cost.
Reply to this
Thank you Margaret, that give us a date to shoot for and if they come in sooner so much the better!! I will take them whatever the cost. I don't know if my other half would agree but when it comes to Andre I go a little crazy and pay whatever I need to pay. : ) Hugs
Reply to this
I go crazy too jeanine when it comes to andre even though I have not gone to an andre concert!! I hope I get the chance soon. constance
Reply to this
I sure hope you do too Constance. I will pray for that. It is something you will never forget and you will never be the same. It is like magic when you are in the same place as Andre. He and his music live is like nothing else. It is like you are at a party with a wonderful group of friends. You can feel a connection with Andre that you cannot feel when you watch a DVD. I guess it is like two hearts coming together like Andre refers to.
Where do you live Constance? I am sure he would be in your area sometime. Hope you feel better soon. Will keep praying for you. Hugs
Reply to this
I live in tarzana california so it would have to be at the gibson theatre at universal city but from what I could remember because I went to see my hero at the time(Andre is my hero know.)get inducted into the wwf hall of fame it is small so I would have to go where my favorite hockey team plays and that is the anaheim ducks.It is called the honda center.I wanted to go last year but my mom foiled that idea .I am 40 years old.I don't think my mom or dad appreciates what he has done for me.I have new friends like you who I love and can't waite to meet. sincerely ,constance ox

THe "choice" CDs are available at:
http://chaos.com/artist/rieu_andre_16238.html
I have never ordered from this site so I am NOT recommending it, but they do have all of the CDS.
Does anyone know if the CDs will play on American CD players? or are they like the DVDs(PAL vs NTSC)?
Reply to this
Hi Joanne, these CD's are available at that site as a pre-order for July 28. The release date is July 26. Just a note as far as prices go, this site has each CD for $18.00 each so that is $18.00 X 8.
I have never had any trouble with CD's playing on American CD players and I have several imports. Thanks for the information. Hugs
Reply to this
IS $18 US Dollars? Australian Dollars? Plus Shipping? Anyone know?
Reply to this
Sally I would imagine that would be Australian dollars since they are being sold there. I don't think it would include shipping. You could get an International Money Order payable in Australian dollars. We would pay less. I can get a link to Hans's Music Store. Hugs
Reply to this
I WOULD HAVE TO SAY, IT IS AMERICAN DOLLARS! AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS ALWAYS WEAKER THAN AMERICANS. STILL ARE. IF IT WAS AUSTRALIAN, WOULD COST US LESS IN AMERICAN, 18 IS A VERY GOOD PRICE FOR US! JUST CHECKED IT, FOR 1 AMERICAN DOLLARS, WE WOULD GET 1.048 AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS. KATI

http://www.hansmusic.com.au/ I just googled Hans Music store and got this so I guess it is the place.
Reply to this
Hi Jeanine,Thanks for answering so promptly. I have never had any problem with CDs either, but the DVDs drive me nuts. I think the way to overcome it is to have a player for both Pal and Ntsc,,
Appreciate your answering my question so promptly. All of you are fantastic!
Reply to this
Hi everyone. CDs play anywhere. Some DVD players in the US are universal also. That's why I buy the PAL versions of the DVDs because the quality is better than our NTSC versions. I paid $50 for my DVD player years ago and it just coincidentally plays both versions. At the time I didn't know enough to ask. Now I do. Andre's boutique people used to write to me when I ordered a PAL version to make sure that's what I wanted. By now they know.
Reply to this
Are there any suppliers in the U.S. for Andre's Choices - 8 discs? If a CD cost 18.00 Australian how much is that in American?
Reply to this
Hi Roberta, I have not heard of any suppliers in America but we may have to wait until the release date. Australian dollars would be a little less but I have not figured it out. With shipping it would probably equal out. Keep checking with us in the event we find any information on the release. Hugs
Reply to this
Roberta, the cost equates to US$140.75.
I know everyone is hanging out for these CDs, but I am sure if you can wait about 3 months (or definatly before Christmas) these will be released in a Boxed Set and you will only pay about US$55 to US$65 for the set. The 6CD set 100 Most Beautiful Melodies only cost me $29.95 and I saw it last week for $19.95. I guess it is up to how impatient you are. There are vast differences in the price of DVDS/CDS in Australia depending where you shop. Andres latest DvD "The Best of Andre Rieu" is selling anywhere between $49.95 down to $29.95, thats a big difference. I find the most consistently cheapest retailer is a National company called JB Hi-Fi.
http://www.jbhifi.com.au/ Cheers to you.

Just for interest, the Aussie Dollar has today reached 98.5 cents to the US Dollar during trading. Experts are freely predicting that Parity to the US Dollar will happen before the end of the month. !!!
