We decided to buy this DVD because the title and description indicated what we were interested in - Andre Rieu performing. While we really enjoyed Andre Rieu's style and the bits & pieces of his performance, the overall program was simply too much of a good thing. Sure, he's there, playing, hosting, and having a bit of fun, but the focus is FAR too often drawn away and overwhelmed with performances by others. This is a huge show and production, but without the primary focus where it should have been. "Live from Dublin" could have been a wonderful collection of Andre's personal favorites, perhaps some classical pieces accompanied by orchestra, but including a variety of Irish pieces, often solo. More intimate, more Celtic, more Andre. Instead, this is a massive production without much of the headline act. Very well done and excellent value...if that's what you're looking for. If you want a DVD featuring Andre Rieu playing for the vast majority of time, you should look at other titles.Read full review
I loved this DVD so much that I gave it to someone who is a violin student. It has something for everyone. If you love the violin and want to watch a real Pro who loves and lives to make the violin come to life, you might want to consider this beautiful DVD. Andre puts himself in his music, and I am so thankful for it, I too find myself getting lost in it, as well. The quality of the DVD is truly flawless. This was #2 in my library of Andre Rieu and It never gets old. I have yet to find anyone who comes close to his talent and music nor have I found any of his work to be less than perfect.
This DVD is the first Andre Rieu program we had ever seen and feel it is the BEST. After viewing several others, we believe this has the best variety of both music selections and entertainer participation. We showed it several times in our home and each party who saw it wanted to secure copies for both themselves as well as their grown children, probably for Christmas gifts to them. It was especially entertaining to see how the audience participation increased as the program progressed...until they were literally dancing in the aisles. It made us feel we would have liked to be part of that audience.
This is an AWESOME DVD. Andre Rieu is a class-act. He's funny, artistic and just a plain talented showman. My sons (4 and 7 months) just love this DVD. Watching it just settles them down. We especially love the performances given by the young ladies. Not only are their voices phenominal, but the performances are delivered in "skits" that just keep you riveted. This is truly a DVD that your family will wear out! Buy with confidence--you've never heard more beautiful music or watched a better concert performed!!!
another good dvd by andre rieu. Love it.
