ANDRE RIEU Sights and Sounds Unsurpassed

Bliss is music from the Johann Strauss Orchestra,

The dream of Marjorie brought to fruition,

Giving visual delights, pure pleasure to hear,

Every performance earns a standing ovation.

 

Popular in the repertoire is the romantic Second Waltz,

Magnificent music entitled anew,

Performed by versatile musicians,

Led by the Maestro, André Rieu.

 

Superb sopranos and lively tenors too

Greatly add to each show,

Raising their voices as only they can,

Loved and applauded wherever they go.

 

This dedicated company travel throughout the world,

Offering respite from the worries of the day,

Soothing many a troubled heart,

Spreading jubilant euphoria to all along the way.

                 Dinah van der Werf 2009


 

     Our sincere thanks to

    Marjorie, André and Pierre.

    We'll have to make do with DVDs

    Until we can see you there.

 

    Dinah and Adrian van der Werf

    Dinah, WOW... I wish those words had flowed so magically, articulate and SO
    TRUE from my soul. You have a gift and I am so happy I am one of many who will share this. Wish Andre and Marjorie will
    some how be touched by this.

    Thank you very much for your compliments about my poem, "Sight and Sounds Unsurpassed". Truly the music and happy atmosphere produced by Andre and all the hard-working people both on the stage and behind the scenes are a joyful antidote to the overwhelming negativity found in many countries and in the news media everywhere. Their powerful healing music speaks all languages and is just what this troubled world needs.
    I applaud them all.

    Greetings from SA.
    Many of us are troubled by stress of one sort or another, that is why the talents of Andre, his musicians and singers presented in first-class events are so important to and appreciated by millions around the world. Their music provides emotional release and can be a great healer. Some gentle pieces move me to tears, but mostly I react as in the following,

    Bliss indeed is the music of Andre Rieu,
    His orchestra honuring Johann Strauss.
    With heart-felt joy I sing and dance
    As their glorious music envelops the house.
