This is one of the best DVD's to be produced by Andre Rieu. The song selection and production was outstanding. His DVD's can get repetitious, but he had a lot of different pieces on this disc. I always enjoy the beauty and antics of his orchestra. For the crowd that says he is not playing true classical music and don't care to listen because of that, I extend my sympathies.

I have always enjoyed orchestra performances best when viewed in person. Most of them when taped become very dry and methodical. Not Andre Rieu and his Orchestra. The joy, humor and enchantment that he and his performers bring to the stage are contagious, not only to the audience but to the video viewer as well. In this performance they present many "American" popular songs with the added bonus of bringing the Harlem Gospel Choir. None of this is available in rural Oregon where we live. Thank goodness for Rieu and his symphony. For an enjoyable evening of symphony, Andre Rieu and his orchestra cannot be beat.
Andre is just great family (means; 'for old people') entertainment. If you love music; especially if you've ever played an instrument; you'll love it!

This is an excellent DVD. Andre Rieu and his orchestra, chorus, and singers are all very accomplished musicians. This DVD is not only entertaining to watch, but the sound is also fantastic. Here he performs music from composers like Andrew Lloyd Weber to those of Johan Strauss and other well known composers. This DVD contains two parts which were apparently filmed on two separate nights, but there are no repeats. This DVD is 160 minutes of outstanding entertainment that you will want to watch over and over.
Andre Rieu loves music. You can see it in his face, as he plays his violin and leads his orchestra through elegant and creative presentations. The music he chooses for his various concerts around the world is fine tuned to the local audience. He also utilizes local musical artists, along with international artists - both vocal and instrumental. Every time I play this DVD it brightens my day.
