Saturday Night André Rieu Concert Maastricht 2010


Al had the photo of Nicolle and her little one printed out to have it given to her before Friday's Concert. Tonight he heard from Nicolle ...
From Al Girard: About an hour and a half before tonight's concert I was standing near the Theater on the Vrijthof, when a female voice said "Hello, sir!"
I turned to see who it was. It was Nicolle from the choir. She thanked me for the photo, and she told me that she had seen it online before I gave her the print, because someone had told her to go to Harmony Parlor to see a photo of her. She said she wants to get many prints made for her family, and for her little daughter as well.
We had a really nice chat for about ten minutes. One thing I did not know,is that the choir is lined up from left to right with the highest voices on the left.
Richard Wilkins from the Today Show in Australia is in Maastricht, and he had a camerman and sound man with him. No rain tonight ....................... Al

  4. Oh Al...soooo happy for you. We knew Nicolle was gonna LOVE that pic, but the fact that you were able to hear it from her in person is certainly a beautiful memory to last. It's also lovely to see how JSO members and their babies grow. Her daughter was just newborn when I last saw her! Sweetie mom and sweetie girl!
