Moonlight Serenade

Release date: 15/11/10
Just a year ago the name of Dutch violinist and conductor Andre Rieu was relatively unknown - despite him having already created an international revival globally in waltz music with his spellbinding musical extravaganzas. 2010 however has seen this change dramatically. After several unforgettable TV appearances on the Royal Variety Performance and the Dancing On Ice Final and with the unprecedented success of his album Forever Vienna, the "King of the Waltz" has become the biggest breakthrough act of the year.

This incredible new CD/DVD set is a must-have for every Rieu fan. Become entranced as Andre Rieu serenades us from a Venetian gondola in Offenbach's Barcarolle, from Austro-Hungary with Haydn's (actually Hofstetter's) Serenade, and from Russia with Shostakovich's Gadfly - Romance. There's also the serene Intermezzo Sinfonico from Mascagni's Cavalleria Rusticana, and Rota's poignant love theme from Romeo & Juliet.

Andre Rieu displays both wit and his mastery as an arranger in serving up a delicious Mozart Medley containing all sorts of favourite ingredients, from Eine Kleine Nachtmusik to Elvira Madigan. And what better way to bring the album to a close than with Auld Lang Syne, bagpipes and all, making Moonlight Serenade the perfect album for bringing in the New Year.
