The Seekers are Set For an André Rieu-nion!

The Seekers are Set For a Rieu-nion
IT'S 9am on day one of rehearsals for Andre Rieu's coming Australian tour and his orchestra is piling into his Maastricht studio. The room is busy with lots of kisses, hugs and greetings in Dutch, French, German, and English.
The musicians have not seen each other for a week, having had a break. Rieu sits at a table in the studio tearoom, sipping a cup of coffee (he made himself) and eating a fresh pain au chocolat.
Australian band 'The Seekers' have re-formed as special guests on his tour - it's been seven years since they last played together. They're minutes away and Rieu puts down his pastry to be ready to greet them for the first time. Click on the link to see full article and video in the Maatricht Studio:
