Andre Rieu

Monday 16th December 2013

André Rieu announces he will kick off his new show, And The Waltz Goes On at Odyssey Arena this December.

Following the runaway success of his UK tour in December 2012, after which André Rieu earned the No.1 ranking in Billboard magazine's Top Tours Chart at the expense of runner-up Justin Bieber, the violin master is returning with a brand new show as part of his international tour, named after his successful album for which he collaborated with Sir Anthony Hopkins

The maestro and his orchestra will perform beautiful waltzes on this tour, but the concerts are much more than that from famous Viennese operettas to film scores, spirituals to musicals, and from folk songs to marches; Rieu's concerts are a perfect mix of thrilling, romantic, festive and emotional melodies combined with surprises, balloons, beautiful soloists and of course Rieu's great sense of humor.

Rieu already tweeted in December that he absolutely loved his 2012 UK tour. "Just back home. I absolutely loved the UK tour. Thank you to all audiences for giving us such great concerts!"

The maestro praised the British & Irish audience for their enthusiasm; "My Orchestra and I had a great time in December, we absolutely loved the UK tour".
