"This recording has nice music that I enjoy, however when listening with the Sennheiser headphones to get a true depth of the sound, it is not there. It sounds flat and the orchestra does not sound any better than a non professional (high school, etc) orchestra. It may be fine for some lively outdoor concerts, but for a recording,in and out of studio location it fails. I would now reconsider purchasing any other recordings and I do have many.
If those responsible for making the recording would take the time needed for a professional recording, it would make for a vast improvement and to me this is just an attempt to get as many recordings out to the public. If you want to get people, who enjoy music, to return and buy additional recordings, make the recording you would want to hear again and again. After hearing this once, I will probably not listen to them again and go for some good orchestras."

"It is hard to put into words how one feels about Andre Rieu DVD's enough to say that I have purchased all of them bar one .... at the Music Hall in the United States..... and this was only due to inavailablity. The Entertainment factor of all his DVD's are beyond ANYTHING I have ever purchased. All who visit my home and watch one of his DVD are mesmorised by the sheer pleasure this person brings and go out and purchase their copies.
For sheer pleasure, entertainment, and romance one needs not go further then Andre Rieu DVD.
I cannot recommend them highly enough.
I only have one criticism....and that is the he has not toured Australia."
Great music

"
The orchestra is grand, as usual, but I was disappointed that this was a CD, not a DVD, though it was clearly marked CD, I was in too big a hurry when ordering. It was received in perfect condition."
MAGNIFICENT!

"Andre' Rieu and his wonderful Johann Strauss Orchastra have succeeded in doing for classical music what the Great Pavarotti did for the Opera; he brought it back to the masses!
If you are unfamiliar with their musical craftsmanship, this CD collection is an excellent introduction to the Andre' Rieu concert series on both CD and DVD format; ENJOY IT!"
