André Rieu receives two awards!
March 5th, 2008, a day André
will never forget.
In the morning he was awarded
with the "Chevalier des Arts et
des Lettres" by the French
ambassador in the Netherlands,
in his castle in Maastricht.
In the evening he received (for
the fourth year) the "Export
Award" from the Dutch music
industry for the best selling artist
abroad.
The video below is a compilation of three programs broadcast on March 5th,
2009 by the Dutch channels TROS and SBS6. The second video comes from
the local Limburg TV station L1
