April 19, 2012: AMSTERDAM - Andre Rieu is his old self again. The 62-year-old violinist, who since earlier this year has been struggling with his health, will again be on the stage this Friday.
"I just did too many things," Rieu tells RTL Boulevard.
In January Rieu was struggling with the flu, after which he again began suffering from a balance disorder. In 2010 the violinist was also out of circulation for some time due to an infection on his equilibrium. "That's just my weak spot. If I am overworked and I tour a lot, which I had done again, the entire room starts to spin."
The musician emphasizes that all is going well with him again. "I have been working on my problem and thankfully it is all gone."Friday Rieu will be on stage again in Denmark, and in June the Limburger will be back on his beloved Vrijthof in Maastrich.
Rieu has not only worked on his equilibrium, but he has also taking his weight under consideration. "I was much too heavy, and totally out of shape", revealed the violinist. In preparation for his comeback Rieu lost seven kilo's (15lbs). "Before I participated a lot in sports, but I squandered that away.I have no idea why."
Rieu is totally involved in sports again."I never took time out for myself. Now I do something with sport every day: bodybuilding, running, tennis. That in itself is taking time out for yourself. And that I am doing again."

Fantastic to hear such positive feedback from Andre. He has at last started to consider himself and appears to be moving forward at a pace . Sport does relax the mind it can be a medicine if you have a stressful job.
Thank you for the news.
