André In His Garden With 6 Mo. Old, "Lowieke"
Ineke watched André on the German morning show Volle Kanne, with Andre as the breakfast guest. The host Ingo Nommsen interviewed him and these are a few of the things that André said that Ineke translated into English for us. ~ Thanks Ineke!
1. The Maastricht community intends to build the new music theater in Maastricht and they wish to name it "The Andre Rieu Theater!".
2. The Rieu family has a second poodle! They already had the boxer Tommy and the brown poodle Wily. Now they added a poodle named Lowieke (which means little Louise).
3. A doctor has been traveling with them for at least ten years, but Andre has never needed him, for he has never been ill.
4. People from the German Channel ZDF are recording an Australian special (with talk host Andrea Ballshu), which will be broadcast
on this coming New Years Eve.
5) This year 12 babies are born in the orchestra! And there are 5 couples in the orchestra.
6) Andre hopes Obama will win!
7) In 2009 he'll travel to Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Chili.
8) In 2010 he'll perform in South Africa.
9) He said it is impossible to insure his hands. Once, during a 3 day holiday in Rome, he fell down and injured his finger! Fortunately, he could still play the violin ...

Thanks for the info Ineke. Just in time for our fans lunch today. They always like to hear new info, particularly thosee who do not have computers, so you have helped me out tremendously. See you on Nov 29 in Sydney.
Could any one name all five couples in the JSO? I can think of four. I saw in the Austrilian Reader's Digest Andre said seven couples. Sandy

1. Ruud Merx and Lin Jong.
2. Ton Maessen and Jet Gelens.
3. Frank Steijns and Sanne Mestrom.
4. Cord Peters and Judith Luesink.
5. Nicolle Steins and Maurice Verbeek (lightcrew).
6. Tanja Derwahl and Roos Aerts.
7. Mirusia and Bas(TROS cameracrew)
Ineke, thanks for the answer on the couples. Can you tell me anything on my favorite JSO members Manoe Konings and Tuen Ramaekers are they married any family. I see in earlier DVD's Manoe dosen't were a ring on her left hand but does's now. Thank's SANDY
Hi Sandy,
I don't know anything about Manoe or Teun. It is strange, I think no one knows!
