Over the past four decades the Dutch violinist, conductor, and musical arranger Andre Rieu has thrilled audiences around the world with his large-scale theatrical performances of great classical and popular music. After first creating the Maastricht Salon Orchestra in 1978 and then the waltz-based Johann Strauss Orchestra ten years later, Rieu’s fame as a musical artist and impresario soared.
Featuring a series of personal interviews and video clips from several of his best performances, this program will delve into Rieu’s background, his passion for the waltz as a musical art form, and his dedication to bringing the classics to a worldwide audience.
Programs shown as “Hybrid” may be presented in person or virtually in our Community Room. Viewers may attend either in person or virtually.
