Is there a better start into the new year than a André Rieu concert? I decided after work to drive to Mannheim, which is aout 45 minutes from my home. I was lucky to get a ticket on the lower level (well, the luck of the Germans..:))
From the programm: 76 trombones, Roses from the South, Perpetuum Mobile, Olé Guappa, Le Cigne ( soloist Tanja Derwahl), Hava Nagila ( soloist Manoe Konings), Ben, the Earth Song (sung by Carmen Monarcha), Blue Danube, Memories ( soloist Mirusia), Veronica, der Lenz ist da, Irgendwo, irgendwann, das ist die Liebe der Matrosen ( the Berlin Comedian Harmonists), Czardas Princess, White Horse Inn, Torna a Surriento, Non Ti Scordar Di Me, Heut' geh ich ins Maxime ( Platin Tenors), Finale: You never walk alone
Adieu mein kleiner Gardeoffizier, Rosamunde.
I enjoyed the concert very much, especially when I met
at the encores Iris and Albert Schilling.
