Walzertraum Besides two original compositions by André and his brother Jean-Philippe, this CD features a collection of some of the most beautiful waltzes ever composed, and all fabulously produced so that the listener will immediately recognise the unique sound of André and the Johann Strauss Orchestra. The selection includes not only the waltzes of the famous Johann Strauss, known as the "waltz king", but also later waltzes. With his new CD "Walzertraum", André has shown himself once again to be the "waltz king" of our era!
Wiener Melange This CD has two violin solos that I love to play. The passionate gypsy song "I hear the sounds of a dulcimer" and "Méditation" from the opera Thais by Jules Massenet. I've been playing this piece for twenty years, and I still find the melody as fascinating as ever. I always notice that the audience is really moved by it. That's a wonderful feeling, and inspiring for me as well!
Le Monde en Fete Were you there? In July 2004, in the Parkstad Stadium in Kerkrade? No? You mean you missed the best party of 2004? Well now you have the chance to catch up on the party you missed with the CD The Flying Dutchman! André himself picked out the pieces of music which best reproduce the atmosphere of this unique concert, and included them on the CD. The pieces are hits from past and present, world-famous waltzes, marches, melodies from the world of opera, operetta and musicals, and you can sing along piece by piece (although you may not be able to hit the high 'G' together with our soprano Carla, but that's why it's so special!) So join the party with André Rieu, the Johann Strauss Orchestra and our sopranos Carla, Carmen and Suzan, whose magnificent number 'Manhã de Carnaval', (the morning after the carnival) also gives voice to the melancholy side of a party...
Paradis Paradis certainly lives up to its title: music for those romantic occasions, or just for relaxing... The best-known themes from films and musicals together with world-famous classical melodies, golden oldies and much loved romantic compositions, all brought together by André on one CD. It's a fairy-tale come true! Listen for yourself and see what we mean...
Aimer The title says it all: 'Aimer'. The CD is a collection of the world's most romantic melodies, music to waft you delightfully away to dreamland!
Mein Weihnachtstraum Aren't they sweet, all those little children and animals in that gorgeously decorated stable? This video is one of my favourites. I find Christmas music so moving, and the colours are so deep and warm, don't you think? The harpsichord is one of the oldest in the world. Just look at the magnificent painting!
Christmas Around The World André personally feels this is the most beautiful Christmas concert he has ever given. Besides the orchestra and choir there are three superb sopranos, and perhaps the most heart-warming part of the concert is the Japanese children’s choir with voices like little angels! Both the DVD and the CD make lovely Christmas presents, whether for yourself or friends and family. Christmas around the World contains some wonderful compositions such as Minuit Chrétien (O Holy Night), Walking in a Winter Wonderland, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Silent Night, Ave Maria, The Star of Bethlehem, Gesù Bambino and Evening Prayer. It should be a very enjoyable Christmas with André Rieu and his orchestra!
Always & Forever She was born in Australia but her parents are of Dutch origin. The soprano Mirusia Louwerse was discovered a few years ago by André Rieu and has since become a permanent presence as a soloist in all of his worldwide performances. Rieu is proud of her and is proud to present her to the world in this solo album. Singing in no fewer than six different languages, Mirusia has recorded pieces that she sings during the Rieu concerts. These include duets with her friend and colleague Carmen Monarcha, a few well-known Australian works and many ‘classics’ such as Ave Maria, Time to Say Goodbye, Send in the Clowns and Memory.
