Dialect Dictation Date Changed Due To Coronavirus


The Great Mestreech's Dialect Dictation Date Changed Due To Coronavirus

An update from a previous article.

The Great Mestreechs Dialect Dictation will be moved to September 27 due to the corona measures.  André Rieu will still read the dictation on this new date."Of course we first asked Rieu if he could do that," said Hortense Brounts, chairman of the dialect association "Veldeke Maastricht."

Corona measures

The dictation was actually scheduled on the agenda for May 27th, but a new date has now been set due to the corona measures. "This gives people more time to prepare for the dictation," the organization jokes on Face book.

Not only for residents of Maastricht

According to Brounts, the dictation is not only intended for residents of Maastricht. 
"Everyone can participate,"she says."I hope that as many people as possible will want to participate."


Since the government made it known last week that all activities and events are not allowed to go on until June 1st, we were forced to cancel the Great Maastricht Dictation scheduled for 31 May. We have immediately selected another date. Namely 27 September. That will give you ample time to prepare yourself for the dictation.

André Rieu

This year, the seventeenth edition of the Great Mestreechs Dialect Dictation is written by Marjorie Rieu, wife of the world-famous violinist. The stand-alone violinist will read the sentences and words.
