Cinema Movie 75th birthday celebration “The Dream Continues”

André Rieu is celebrating his 75th birthday. That's why the king of the waltz invites you on a boat trip with him and his beloved Johann Strauss Orchestra through his hometown of Maastricht. This new cinema concert is an ode to André's boyhood dream of one day having his own orchestra and travelling the world with it. The film shows a selection of André's favourite and most spectacular international performances and some of the most beautiful musical moments that the Maestro and his orchestra have experienced during their decades-long collaboration.

Report by Ineke. Photos by Anthony Mancisidor from Peru, Ineke and André Rieu Productions. Especially for the American fans, we recorded some parts of the movie. Duration of the video: 33 minutes. Ruud and I have been to the cinema in The Hague, Holland, twice. We loved the film "The Dream Continues" from the first to the last minute. A great compilation of wonderful memories, as we attended most of the showed concert-fragments: Vienna on two different places, Malta, Bucharest, Mainau, Heidelberg, Maastricht, Efteling, Bahrain. The presentation was in English by Charlotte Hawkins, with Dutch subtitles added. The editing was extremely good, with concerts blending into others seamlessly, very nice to watch. The concert fragments were not interrupted by spoken texts. Charlotte did her connecting texts and the interviews before or after the compilation of the concert parts. Beautiful music, beautiful images, humor incorporated, but at the end we expected images of Pierre in the rowing boat on the Maas (river), which we had seen in a short instagram video, posted by Pierre himself. At one point Charlotte did say: “Let’s check if no one has fallen over board” but she did not check and continued her speech. Ha, ha, poor Pierre, his stunt on the river did not survive the editing table! Aaw.
