André Rieu:

“The waltz is a very important part of my life. It is an important way to express my positiveness, my bringing humour to the world. The waltz can be sad and at the same time uplifting, so you have to recognise the uplifting part, as well as seeing life from both sides. The waltz encapsulates that. It’s very interesting what a waltz does to an audience. You are in my audience and you let yourself go. You give yourself to me and the waltz will grab you, unless you say, ‘No, I don’t want to,’ then the waltz will not reach you.”

The Dutch violinist, conductor and entertainer, André Rieu has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. Crowned the “King of Waltz” by the media, Rieu believes that everyone can enjoy classical music. Following in the footsteps of Johann Strauss himself, he encourages his audiences to get out of their seats and waltz in the aisles. Together with his orchestra – consisting of 50 members – he tours all five continents.

Every year, more than 700,000 fans attend an André Rieu concert, establishing him as one of the top ten touring acts in the world. In 2008 he was No. 1 Classic Artist in the US and he scored more than 100x Platinum in Australia.
