The Christmas concerts in Maastricht should become an annual tradition, but then corona broke out worldwide. During the last 18 months André was not allowed to perform. Great joy when the Dutch government announced in September 2021 that concerts would allowed again, provided that the attendees can show proof of vaccination or a negative corona test result via a Corona Check App on their iPhone.
