"Welcome To My World 3"
Join Us On a World Trip With André Rieu
AvroTros, 10 episodes, starting Friday Oct. 18, 2019 9:25 PM, NPO 1. (Dutch TV) - Rieu and his Johann Strauss Orchestra are back
with a new series 'Welcome to my world'! In this third series, the
maestro travels to the other side of the world. Literally, because they settle
in Australia for a very special Christmas party on the beach. Also North America, Tel Aviv and of course the home town of
Maastricht will also visited. In ten episodes you will get a look behind the
scenes of the grand and spectacular concert tour.
The series starts Friday October 18, 2019 on Dutch TV and begins on a very familiar location: the Vrijthof in Maastricht. During the rehearsals, soprano Donij van Doorn brings André to tears with her performance of an aria from 'La Traviata' and the orchestra receives the surprise of their lives when David Hasselhoff arrives in his "Knightrider" car.

Trip
down memory lane
The
world trip starts in Israel, where André gives a party in honor of his first
concert in this country. And what else than a traditional Dutch clog dance to
celebrate this! In between the concerts, André and the orchestra are afforded
an opportunity to discover the Holy City of Jerusalem and there is an emotional
reunion between Jewish families. In the next episode, the 30-year anniversary
of Rieu's career is celebrated with a trip down memory lane.
The
American Dream
André
and the orchestra perform a special concert in Los Angeles and of course a
visit to the "Hollywood walk of fame" should not be missed there. But
the rest of the USA is also being explored: in Arizona the cowboy boots are
ready and in Florida the sopranos are getting into a Halloween mood. Later in
Europe they are seeking the sun in Lisbon, where André is invited for a royal
visit to the Queluz Palace.
Christmas
in the sand
The series ends in December with a special Christmas party. The entire team is in Sydney for a performance at the historic town hall. And if you are in Australia, you should of course look for koalas and kangaroos. This time the Christmas meal is not with the family around the dining table, but on the warm beach. Barbecue included!

C'est bien dommage qu'en France on ne capte plus la TV néerlandaise, j'espère donc qu'il y aura un DVD de "Welcome to my world" No 3, je possède bien évidemment les deux premiers. Bravo à André pour sa brillante carrière. Francine.
ReplyDeleteI saw this concert via youtube last night. It was amazing. Andre Rieu and his music have so changed my outlook on life--all for the better. I have tickets to see him in Maastricht this summer. I pray all will go well and it won't be postponed. I watch him every day on YouTube and am inspired. His concerts have recently brought back memories I have of classical music memory contests in elementary school. From 3rd and 4th grade. We were taught to recognize certain classical works and then we were given a test where music was played over the pa system, and if we identified the works correctly, we were taken to a concert of the Indianapolis Symphony. I particularly remember Dvorak New World Symphony and of course the William Tell Overture, just to name a few. I hadn't thought about this in years! I have been blessed to learn of Andre Rieu and his orchestra. They stir my soul and touch my heart. Paula Matuskey
