New Year's Day Concert

Sat in front of TV this morning watching the Classical music concert from Vienna - fabulous!!! - a lovely 2 1/2 hours of beautiful music which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Re: New Year's Day Concert

I did see some of that and it was excellent. It felt a bit strange though because I have seen a lot of Andre Rieu recently so I was expecting the orchestra to mess around.

We watched it too and did enjoy it but both said Andre Reiu would have done it better.

Re: New Year's Day Concert

We watch it every New Years Day. This time was slightly different,with a look behind the scenes, as well as the main concert. A really beautiful building, fabulous orchestra, and all those wonderful Strauss tunes, a great way to start the year!

I.m not saying I dislike Andre Reiu, on the contrary I like Andre Reiu too, but not at the New Year's Day Concert.
