Andre Rieu to Play A Very Special Concert In Sydney  ImageAndré Rieu will play a very special concert at Sydney Town Hall on 20 November 2018. This intimate concert in a venue smaller than any other on his national tour, will seat only 1000 people.

Fans of André can be part of the excitement at the recording of this special concert which will be recorded on camera for upcoming cinema, TV and DVD release

This concert is in addition to André Rieu's two long awaited concerts at the ICC Sydney Theatre on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 November.

The repertoire on 20 November will be quite different from the ICC Concerts. In this intimate and festive atmosphere André Rieu and his 60 piece Johann Strauss Orchestra will play an eclectic mix of the most festive and joyous music. On this evening the "King of the Waltz" will resound the antique and impressive Sydney Town Hall with his Stradivarius and his Johann Strauss Orchestra, chorus and many soloists. They will fill the hall with magnificent sounds.

André Rieu said: "My Johann Strauss Orchestra and I are so excited to come to Sydney and play this very special concert for you. We will have so much fun and it makes me so happy that we will record this concert on camera for a later cinema, TV and worldwide DVD release.

I'm really looking forward to my Australian tour and to see such an enthusiasm from my fans and that Australia welcomes us so kindly. Thank you for your support and love!"

André Rieu's orchestral tours draw more than 600,000 people per year, meaning that the charismatic entertainer outsells superstars like Coldplay, Elton John or Madonna. Rieu's history is one of superlatives: The "Maestro for the Masses" (Wall Street Journal) has sold in excess of 40 Million CDs and DVDs, topped the world charts 30 times, received more than 500 platinum awards and three Brit-Awards for the "Album of the year".

His albums regularly rank in the top 5 of the UK pop charts and his videos on YouTube rock up more than a billion views. Over 3.1 million fans follow him on Facebook. His Johann Strauss Orchestra is the world's biggest private orchestra and has members from ten nations.

Tickets for this new scheduled special concert at Sydney Town Hall on Tuesday, 20 November 2018 will go on sale at www.andrerieu.com on Thursday 2 August at 12noon. Be quick - only 1000 tickets available.
