ANOTHER LOVELY DVD - JUST AS DESCRIBED - VERRY HAPPY WITHG PRODUCT AND SERVICE

Live at The Royal Albert Hall, La Vie Est Belle, and A Dream Come True, all these 3 dvd's in this boxset. I already had the first two concert dvd's, but I wanted to get the documentary A Dream Come True, and it was cheaper to buy this boxset than that dvd on its own.Live at The Royal Albert Hall is an early concert and at first the English audience is embarrassing to watch (obviously not aware yet of the audience participation which we've now been accustomed to) but Andre soon gets them into party-mode by the end! A short concert by today's standards, but there are also 22 mins of 'extras'.La Vie Est Belle is another early and brilliant concert in Berlin, including 300 bagpipes and in my opinion the best performance they have ever given of 'Poliushko Polie', with Andre exhibiting so much passion and energy in his conducting of it. Again, not a long running time (just short of one hour) but every minute is a joy to watch.A Dream Come True is a must for every Andre Rieu fan. It shows him going about his daily life, around Maastricht, taking his dog for a walk, in the bell tower with Frank Steins playing the carillon, and in the supermarket trying to find the tomatoes! Pure joy!Andre Rieu is always good value, whether it's concerts or watching documentaries!

Andre Rieu’s presents amazing concerts from the Virjthof in Maastricht every July.These concerts are transmitted live to cinemas all over the world to bring joy, laughter, tears, and ‘feel-good’ factor to people everywhere – offering some of the very best artists the world has to offer from the world of rock; pop; opera; and ballet for little more than the price of a cinema ticket.He also tours the world stadiums with his renowned ‘Johann Straus Orchestra’ – bringing the magic right to your doorstep.In 2008 Andre took his show to Melbourne where against a backdrop of a life-size model of the Shonbrunn Palace of the Empress Sisi and the Emperor Franz-Josef – complete with a fabulous chandelier-lit ballroom and a spectacular ice rink - he delivered his magic.Talk about spectacular – this is probably his best concert ever!Stars include The Imperial Ballet of Vienna, Tanzschule Elmayer, Stars on ice, the Australian Federal Police Pipes and Drums – and a very special ‘Easter egg’.And if that is not enough to blow you away – wait until you hear the soloists and the astonishing musicianship of the orchestra – they are on FIRE!And without giving too much away – watch what unfolds with Andre and his audience of over 40,000 people when Andre Rieu plays ‘Waltzing Matilda’ on his Stradivarius violin. Be in AWE!Happy viewing.

This purchase was made as a present to a friend living in England. The item was elivered in good time and excellent condition amnd made my friend very happy. I was a little dissapointed that the seller was not able to include a small gift card or ven a note with a 'short message on it. this caused a lot of confusion because the receiver was not aware that the surprise was coming and actually nearly posted it bak as a wrong address.. (Even though it was addressed to her!. a simple note in the pascel could have avoided the confusion and also been a nicer way of sending a gift (For me)..7/10 would have ben 10/10 but for this company's inability to add a note!.

This is a fantastic D.V.D. Watch Andre Rieu play his violin and his Johann Strauss orchestra. Play songs old and new classics. Some of the songs are Austrilian oranted. With guests include The Platin Tenors perform Nessun dorma, Chianti song. Other guests include Mirusia Louwerse perform Concerto pour une voix and Wishing you were somehow here again. (from Phantom of the opera).

With Andre Rieu. Watch ballet dancers perform songs with Andre Rieu and his orchestra. And watch ballet dancers on ice skates perform songs with Andre Rieu and his orchestra. Andre Rieu and his Johnann Strouss orchestra and his guests all perform in a set castle with an ice rink and ballet. With an audience of 40.000 and looked like they enjoyed the peerformance. With tears of joy and laughter.
