André Rieu - Christmas in London (2017)
Youtube ^ | Jan 6, 2018 | Miha Vidakovi

Together with fantastic soloists and his always joyful Johann Strauss orchestra, André Rieu provides a fabulous evening with the most beautiful and moving Christmas carols, but also with emotional songs such as Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, The Holy City and the classic Concierto de Aranjuez.

I do too! André restores my faith in humanity. I got to see him last fall in Las Vegas, at the Orleans, all thanks to one of my wonderful sons. It was an experience of a lifetime!

Sadly Ruud Merx one of the trombonists, and quite a comedian died of a heart attack Dec. 2016 at age 47 during a performance in London. As he is featured in this video it is therefore older than 2017. Doesn’t really matter as Andre Rieu, and his JS orchestra are always a pleasure to listen to.

Makes me sad to hear that. He really does have some comedians in his orchestra. During the Las Vegas concert, the gal who plays the piano danced on top of it. lol

The concert in Vegas lasted for about 3 hours. We had a great time. Just like in this concert, he kept telling us to go home, but everyone kept asking for one more song! :)

After family and remembering the reason we celebrate, music of the season is a major enjoyment.

Yes he, and his orchestra are a special lot. We have many of his videos, and watch them often.
