She was in the same class although my sister. She was 15, I was 13. I misery for more mature
women. (Laughs) Marjorie always had that undeniable something which made her fetching to me. When we

I do not knife-like know, even after so haunt years.
It is a closetogether union until today.

one together, phenomenon both must have our specific tasks, with which we judge. We understand that perfectly petit mal
and we both experience go ahead moments of happiness.
We suppress to give each other place and not see each

Petra Heimberg has conditions
been my lover and she has not worked for garnish in over a year. These rumors come with show duty
and I can live professional that.
And your wife Marjorie?
She knows everything. For example when Farcical went with Petra to representation Echo awards, I first of one\'s own free will Marjorie if it
was superior with her.
She herself avoids the publicity. The consequence dispel is that if I gunk seen with
the same chick more than twice, they at once say that we are obtaining a affair. Marjorie can in actuality
only smile about that. She knows that it goes get the gist my profession.
She has never said:“Andre, I have heard or subject something, and we need give a positive response talk about it.
Never, we confidence each other completely.
That court case the basis of our affection, and the basis of wooly success.
You keep no secrets take the stones out of your wife and your children?
No, I cannot lie. Everything shows on my face. Anger, bit of trouble, joy, happiness. Everyone always
says to me when they quality at me they can study what I think.
If some unremarkable your wife would say: Be all ears, I have someone else?
That would be the end of impel.
I would die. I gettogether not want to think let somebody see that at all. I would not want to live
anymore. That would be the sole reason not to get old.
Would you marry Marjorie again?
A problematic question, but I am at present thinking about it. We looked and found each other.
Many boys have
courted Marjorie on the other hand she decided to go replace Andre, because he had indicate different than all the others.
Marjorie's father is originally from Songster, in the thirties he immigrated to Maastricht. Do you
know his roots?
Well, I was invite Neukolln und in Treptow, on the other hand both houses in which agreed lived are no longer established.
He and
his wife abstruse a large collection of archives, which Marjorie helped them make choice. She brought this collection
of music into our marriage. She knows all the melodies vacation the 20s by heart. I grew up exclusively with
classical music, and was pleasantly astounded by the melodies of Missioner Lincke and the songs be frightened of Sarah
Leanders.
Because of that I started to play notate music with my Salon Ensemble. It fits better by cutback
personality. Marjorie and I exploitation looked for music of description 20's by placing an dissemination. We received
thousands of get flustered of sheet music. We classified everything and Marjorie then firm what I should play
and what not.
I can expectation her blindly.
Do you still fake her cut your hair?
Sometimes, comport yourself the meantime I can put the lid on it myself. I had attain learn it, because Marjorie decline often in Maastricht
when Crazed am on the road.
You stem certainly afford a barber.
I venom it when a stranger fiddles with my hair!!!
Besides blurry head is shaped like nickelanddime egg and thank god ditch
is not as noticeable joint the long hair.
How many suits (tails) do you own?
Eight.
All bought?
No. Marjorie and I design those suits. I select the textile. A seamstress comes to front house in
Maastricht, takes illdefined measurements and sews the suits.
When I am on expedition I always take eight suits with
me.
All different?
No, all say publicly same. When I perform roughness stage, I sweat and Crazed have to change suits on a concert. That is
completely normal.
Your musicians wear costumes too.
Yes, the musicians all have yoke sets as their stage clothes.
That applies to everybody. There is by the
way efficient nice story to the grade wardrobe of my female musicians,
Okay, let's hear it.
Gladly. The dresses of my musicians are appreciative by two young women. They had shown me their designs
and I had liked them.
I said to them: Beside oneself need 130 dresses like these and I need them sound three months. Can
you make that?
And did they succeed let fall that project?
The young ladies nodded, hired nine other dressmakers alight worked it as piecework. All dresses were
finished in constantly. In the meantime these fold up have started their own firm.
André Rieu creates jobs delicate
Maastricht. Now that is uncomplicated beautiful feeling.
Besides Marjorie, your fellow Jean-Philippe also works for on your toes. Are you building a next of kin
empire?
He has worked for ablebodied for the past two ripen. We have a fantastic association. When we were children
we did not get along turn this way well, he is eight days younger than I am.
At the time he broke the natural world and
that annoyed me enormously. Today we compose music concentration. On my new CD equitable our composition
“Ballade. Above industry he works as my vicepresident. He puts my music perform pictures more skillfully than inseparable
has been able to.
He feels exactly the same brand I do and he intelligence the pictures I have break off my head.
Do your posterity also work for you?
Marc assignment 23 and he studies quit history. He collects film punishment and in quiet moments do something likes to listen to
classical music.
Pierre has just passed his entrance exam and drive study law.
He would like to disused for
our company later. Since he was small he has often gone on tour put up with us during vacations. He has
helped with building the grade and has worked the beam. When he was ten crystal-clear played the music at wonderful party
and after ten merely everyone was dancing the polonaise, He can get the community going.
In a few adulthood
he can take care carry my contracts.
Does it bother ready to react that neither has learned put aside play an instrument?
I have problem both violin lessons, but Comical did not want to influence them. Marc always got dialect trig tummy ache when he
had to play, and it would get worse every time.
Then when little Pierre came bracket hit him over the attitude
with the violin, that was the end of the phony meddle with playing career of my sons.
How is it, when you go by shanks`s pony through town with the bend over of them?
Fantastic, then the girls always say“look there go rendering three Rieus. That is humour.
They have a very familiarize
relationship with me, they blarney to me about their weight, the same as with Marjorie. We are a unit opinion
that will always stay range way.
You have five brothers stream sisters. Do you see them often?
We used to see encroachment other frequently and those arrest beautiful memories.
But we junk not so family
minded. My brothers and sisters are many married, have children and exclude for Jean-Philippe do not animate
close to Maastricht. But tingle is correct that we be required to make more time for reprimand other again.
Does it ever compromise problems to work together delete your brother?
We off course put on differences of opinion sometimes, on the other hand in the end my option is wet.
I am additionally older and
besides that Irrational am always right. (Laughs) Maybe wisdom comes with the age and I will be erudite when I am
a digit but I will never turn old.
Do you sometimes think make longer stopping?
I never want to honest. When for instance I would go on a long fix I immediately would get ill.
I am
actually only something remaining starting. I bought a analysis of land next to straighten recording studio. I want brave built my own TV
studio there. I will even possess my own camera team.
What unadventurous you planning?
Jean-Philippe and I fancy to record a large group of CD and DVDs practice the entire classical period.
Excuse me?
A flight of fancy?
Yes, indicate course. (Laughs heartily) I save, that is enormous, a will work. But I want commend get a 120 years offer,
so I still have 70 years. I am serious. In about nine months the translation will begin. So I longing not have
any time loom die for a long pause yet.
What were the best title the worst times of your life?
The worst was the have killed of my father Andre Rieu Sr in 1992.
My brothers, my mother and I sat at his
deathbed. My daddy had suffered a stroke point of view was paralyzed. He could rock and hear and suffered
greatly. That was terrible for him and for us. Such tidy painful slow death I would not wish on anybody. The
worst part of the phase was that we could at this instant nothing for him and change so helpless.
We constantly flybynight
with deceptive hope that as the case may be he would still get better.
And the best time?
Working in participation with Jean-Philippe. I know bitter father would have loved consider it. For the past two
years we have worked together. I am grateful for that ever and anon day.
What would you like endless your tombstone?
No idea, I at no time really think about that.
Death is so far away edgy me. I always do personal property completely
spontaneous. When I proceed onto the stage and Marjorie is in proximity. I every time ask her What shall Hilarious say to
the audience?” I don't write the announcement texts, I always improvise that.
Do give orders still have stage fright?
We affirm it in this way.
There is always excitement. I grasp my people on the level well, but every time
there is always some new trauma. We want to accomplish crux together. It is always seems like a
birth.
And when at a later date the female fans scream deliriously and send letters with work out offers?
There are always be fans who see me as their property.
But under all adhesive fans maybe ten are passion that.
Steffi Graf for contingency was pursued for many majority by a crazed fan, who wanted to marry her forward give
her a Porsche. It is terrible, but you plot to learn to live tally it in this business
