Hi Folks-Hope everyone is well and happy.This is the 'Ol Man checking in from Germany.We're getting kind of cold here-perhaps some snow,where I live tomorrow night.With Snow forecasts-I never put too much stalk in them-till I actually see the white stuff.I learned that,while living in good 'ol Wisconsin. It's been a good day for working on our Family History-and finding out more about our Ancestors. Had a nice family from our Church come over and visit us,this afternoon.We had a nice snack,talked and watched a DVD-called: "In Concert with Andre Rieu".I'll guess that there is hardly anyone,if anyone?-who knows who "Andre Rieu"is.You won't find his name,or his Strauss Waltz Orchestra listed on any of the "so-called music charts"that the "youngins(10-45)pay attention to,or listen to the music listen to from those charts.It''s not "rap",heavy metal",or "rock n roll"-however -at times his Orchestra and the music they play-sure moves along. His Orchestra plays Classical,Pop,Jazz,Polkas,Marches,Waltzes-and occacasional Country Western-and maybe some "light rock n roll". He and his Orchestra are very famous and well known in Europe-and is somewhat known in So.America and some parts of Asia-along with a few in the U.S.He has given Concerts in the U.S.-primarily in the larger Cities,like N.Y.,Chicago,S.F,Boston-and perhaps a few other places. He is at times seen on the PBS TV Stations in the U.S. For those of you who like "Good Music"-watch for him-he and his Orchestra give a great Concert-and they are a lot of fun-getting their Audiences to interact with their Concerts,by singing and dancing. Ya All Have a Good Day-"Cheers."
