A King Is Born (Of The Waltz)

                                            

             


Fifty nine years ago in the little town of Maastricht a King was born (of the waltz, that is)!

Who could have known that in the intervening years André would become a world class entertainer with his World Stadium Tours becoming the largest event in entertainment history.

Lets show André how much we love him with lots of Happy Birthday wishes!



 

  
                                                                                   I am having a glass of wine for my birthday!

    Happy Birthday To Sir,With Love
    It should come as no surprise that all your fans should wish to send you greetings on this day. Your music has enriched the lives of so many,the least we can do is say a simple "Thank You". So, here's to you, André Rieu, brilliant, gorgeous, talented,artistic,charming, lover of life, we salute you.

    Goodeveving Jeanine Ann, looks like you have been very busy, what with André's
    Birthday wishes. Hope your violin lessons are coming along a bit easier, I want front front row seats for your first Concert Maestro-ette. Could you please contact Jolanta for me, and ask if she would like to chat with moi? So, I am asking if we could exchange snail mail. Thank you for being our go between. Hugs for thee.

      Hi Judith,  I am afraid you will have to wait quite a bit for a concert from me : )  The lessons are only getting harder but I will never give up.  You must really have a lifetime to play the violin well.  It is extremely difficult but a real challenge for me and I love it.  But when I play a song I feel really good.  I try to pick all the André music I can find.
      I did contact Jolanta and gave your email to her so you should hear from her soon.  She is a very nice lady.  We will be going to Reading together and also with Nan who is coming up from Florida so we will have a great time.  Take care sweetie.  Love and hugs
