André Rieu: ‘We play music that touches people’s hearts’
André Rieu is a hugely talented Dutch violinist and conductor known for creating the waltz-playing Johann Strauss Orchestra.
André's orchestra, numbering over 60 musicians, is known the world over for its gloriously romantic, spectacular extravaganzas which literally see audiences dancing in the aisles.
“Most of my musicians have been with me for 25 years and we really are like a close-knit family, and, yes, I do feel rather like a father-figure.
Biography of andre rieu uk fan club
On tour, I’m like the father with my children. It’s like I have two families. There’s my private family – my wife Marjorie and our two grown-up sons, their partners and our five grandchildren - and my big family which is my orchestra.
That family feeling is very important to me, you know? I’m a family guy. When we’re touring, I have a rule that we don’t go away for too long without coming home so that everyone’s individual families stay intact.”
