(finally) have recovered

named the "André Rieu week"

This is a short 5 minute video which shows you what has to be done when the
maestro decides to invite 400-500 WIND PLAYERS for his concerts...
Ruud wanted to make his own compilation of the 2nd half of the concert. But
the local TV station L1 aired the program "L1MBOURGEOIS" on Sunday July
12th, with all the highlights of the entire concert.
Running time: 18.5 minutes
Ineke's photo show made during the dress rehearsal. As always Ineke makes
a photo show out of the many pictures we took. As you will see André does not
need a Face Book website, he does it live on stage. THE FUNNY FACES SHOW.
In various interviews André always mentions that he employs 120 people.
Apart from the approx. 45 orchestra members, who are they? In this
documentary from the L1 TV station, Pierre will give us a GUIDED TOUR
through the Maastricht Studios, offices and storage facilities.
A very interesting peek BEHIND THE SCENES of André Rieu Productions.
Running time: 18 minutes
Jann from the Aussie website organized a VEGEMITE TASTING outside the
Gauchos restaurant. Two surprise guests popped-up. At the end a near
unanimous vote for vegemite...
Fans on three continents prepare for the Maastricht concerts, working far
apart, but close together. We would like to show you THE MAKING OF
BANNERS, buttons, flag decorations and name tags.
What a wonderful party it will be this year!
(Running time: seven minutes)
During the encores suddenly a group of young people jumped on stage and
started to dance. This was a local Maastricht group called "De Radlers", who
had the #1 carnival song of this year, called "A Super Sjoene Daag" or "A
wonderful Day". We translated the lyrics of the chorus half in dialect, half in
Dutch, followed by the official video of the group. We added English subtitles.
Running time: 6.5 minutes
Running time: 35 minutes.
