The recreation of the Schonbrunn Palace inside the Telstra Dome, Melbourne Australia for the Andre Rieu World Stadium Concerts. The concerts were held over three nights and seated in excess of 30,000 people per concert. It was quite a spectacle with the castle, the 60 piece orchestra, dancers, skaters, four large screen showing close ups of what was happening on stage, two fountains with waterspouts keeping time to the wide variety of music, and a horse drawn carriage doing a circuit of the stadium.

I do not love you except because I love you; / I go from loving to not loving you, / From waiting to not waiting for you / My heart moves from cold to fire. I love you only because it’s you the one I love; / I hate you deeply, and hating you / Bend to you, and the measure of my changing love for you / Is that I do not see you but love you blindly. Maybe January light will consume / My heart with its cruel / Ray, stealing my key to true calm. In this part of the story I am the one who / Dies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you, / Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood. Words by Pablo Neruda who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. Words that we can all relate to. Happy New Year From The Sparrows Music – The Blue Danube – Andre Rieu 1st January 2009

Best viewed full size Seattle, Washington Andre Rieu is one of the greatest musicians of our time. His orchestra travels around the world to bring joy to all who are lucky enough to hear them. I was among those people in Seattle a few years ago just about this time of year. I do hope to hear him again in person, for it is an experience that will always be remembered. The following is from Wikipedia; / André Rieu was born into a musical family on October 1, 1949 in Maastricht in the Netherlands. He began studying violin at the age of five. His father was conductor of the Maastricht Symphony Orchestra. From a very young age he developed a fascination with orchestra. He studied violin at the Conservatoire Royal in Liège and in the Conservatorium Maastricht, (1968–1973). His teachers included Jo Juda and Herman Krebbers. From 1974 to 1977, he attended the Music Academy in Brussels, studying with André Gertler, winning the Premier Prix at the academy. / At University he performed the Gold And Silver Waltz by Franz Lehár. Encouraged by the audience reaction he decided to pursue the waltz form. Rieu formed the Maastricht Salon Orchestra and performed as a violinist with the Limburg Symphony Orchestra. In 1987, he created the Johann Strauss Orchestra and his own production company. Since then, his melodramatic stage performances and rock-star demeanor have for some been associated with a revival of the waltz music category. André Rieu plays a 1667 Stradivarius violin. In April 2009 (Australia) /June 2009 (UK), he made a cameo appearance as himself on “Ramsay Street” in the long-running Australian soap opera Neighbours. The Orchestra began in 1987 with 12 members but now performs with between 40 and 50 musicians. At the time the Orchestra first toured Europe, there emerged a renewed interest in waltz music. The revival began in the Netherlands and was ignited by their recording of the Second Waltz from Shostakovich’s Jazz Suites. As a result, Rieu became known as the waltz King. Rieu and his orchestra have performed throughout Europe, in North America, and Japan. Winning a number of awards including two World Music Awards, their recordings have gone gold and platinum in many countries, including 8-times Platinum in the Netherlands. In September 2007 Rieu performed in Australia for the first time solo, without his Orchestra at the Eastland shopping centre in the Melbourne suburb of Ringwood playing “My Way” and “Waltzing Matilda”—and the next day appeared at Sydney’s Arena Cove, Warringah Mall shopping complex with the same set. Rieu and orchestra returned to Australia in November as part of his world tour. Rieu and his orchestra played 3 concerts at Melbourne’s Telstra Dome from 13-15 November and continued their tour throughout Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide, through to December 2008. The concert theme is ‘A Romantic Vienna Night’ and the set comprises a replica of part of a Viennese castle, complete with 2 ice-skating rinks 2 Fountains, and a ballroom dance floor situated above and behind the Orchestra. Rieu’s largest concert attendance to date in Australia was 38,000 on Saturday 15 November in Melbourne. The Perth concert did not feature the replica of the Viennese Palace as it was stated in the press because it would not fit into the front doors of Subiaco Oval. He records both DVD and CD repertoire at his own recording studios in Maastricht in a wide range of classical music as well as popular and folk music plus music from well-known sound tracks and theatre musicals. His lively orchestral presentations, in tandem with incessant marketing, have attracted worldwide audiences to this subgenre of classical music. Some of his orchestra’s performances have been broadcast in the United Kingdom and the United States on the PBS television network2 such as the 2003 airing of Andre Rieu Live in Dublin, filmed in Dublin, Ireland, and 2005’s André Rieu Live in Tuscany filmed in the Piazza Della Repubblica in the village of Cortona in Tuscany.
