Preparing For The Andre Rieu Christmas DVD



 


Fri 02 Sep 2011

After a relaxing holiday we started again with the rehearsals and recordings for our new cd 'The Waltz goes on'. It will be a fantastic cd, not only with world-famous waltzes you all know, but also some brand new waltzes written by Andre himself.. and of course the new waltz by Sir Anthony Hopkins!

If you wonder what a Christmas tree is doing in our studio: we are also working on a new Christmas album! Yesterday, two of our orchestra ladies, Nadia and Nathalie, were leaving for maternity leave. We wish you all the best, see you soon again!

Andre created a true Winter Wonder Land here in Maastricht. Over 30 degrees Celsius in the shadow… the hottest day of Summer here in Maastricht… and we are recording a Christmas concert in the snow!! This is literally one of the most wonderful recordings.

    CASTLE, CHRISTMAS, CAKE, everything is beautiful!

    JEANINE ANN, you and ANDRE just sent me into the future, and - though I can hear the crickets playing their summer night melodies - I already feel the perfume of the Christmas tree and "hear" the snowflakes touching my window.

    What a magician He is! What a magician You are!

    Thank you for the wonderful photos!

    Eve
