Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi people here for a moment again (specially Xkalibur),
how nice to see some new posts in this favourite thread of mine :)
However, what makes me very sad, noone tries to make any summary of passing by summer 2010 hits. Why? Cannot you hear any great hits these sunny days?
How sad, indeed :(
So I am here to make this question active. It is a question about biggest summer 2010 hit (but excluding World Cup songs, please). What are your suggestions? This is my hit nr 1 but mind the video I am putting here - it is grey colour everywhere ( I hope).
Kate Perry California gurls
LM
ps. do you like Kate Perry? I like her songs though she has strange videos ...sometimes.
My opinion of course
to be continued soon...

Hi LM,
Stormae - Alors on Dance
Marco Calliari Yolanda Be Cool & Dcup - We No Speak Americano
Timbaland Feat Nelly Furtado & Soshy - Morning After Dark
and sometimes you could hear a Spain's Eurovision Song 2010 on a dance floor.
Let me introduce a hit song in South Dagestan (RF) where I spent a week recently:
Blue Affair & Sasha Dith feat. Carlprit - Ya Odna
Here in Baku there were some stable summer hits:LadyMacbeth wrote:However, what makes me very sad, noone tries to make any summary of passing by summer 2010 hits. Why? Cannot you hear any great hits these sunny days?

Hello nice people in this thread - specially Xkalibur :)
I can see some new songs here but I cannot see last Bruno Mars what really makes me sad :(
Why noone managed to see the next beautiful song of him? It is really frustrating.

All the best to you,
Lady Macbeth

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi today again,
I wanted to put here latest Enrique and something German but after some days I am going to put here something ... really British. Two very British songs.
Here we go:
1. A song about black sheep which is a very popular motive in British poetry.
Valentine Black sheep
2. A song about wonderful life though watching the video we can doubt what is the song really about... maybe about insomnia or paranoia or depression? Who knows?
Thus we need to know some English to grasp lyrics :)
Hurts Wonderful life
Soon more songs from me.
Take care.

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hello again...
why noone puts any new music here? How sad...
So my turn again.
But first a question - do you believe these all stars that we can watch everywhere these days and listen to their (???) music etc. - are they real stars or who are they?
Have you ever thought about it? Who can be a real star?
I think people should think more about such issues. We have so many stars these days.
What are they worthy of? Who thinks over it? And still have in mind - to be a star and to be a rich man/woman. Should it be the same? Does it make sense?
Ok. Anyway now a new song in this thread - next pop star is singing next song... her name is Katy Perry - what do you think about her as a pop star - by the way. Is she a real pop star or not quite a real pop star - whatever it means. Judge her stardom between 0 and 10.
0 - not a real pop star
10 - perfect pop star
Katy Perry Firework
Anyway , don't ask me who deserves to get 10 points as a perfect pop star.
I don't know what qualities should get this score. Apart from great hits should 10 point pop star be a beautiful monster or someone more human...
Is it possible to be human 10 point pop star at all? How do you think?
All in all next hit in front of you - Beautiful monster. Probably a song about 10 point pop star but who knows if only about such person...?
Maybe you know some beautiful monsters next to you ...
Have a good time listening to this interesting song and watching interesting video...
Ne-Yo Beautiful monster

Hi Vega (past Xkalibur) and everyone who cares...
Nice to see you dear Xkalibur - however why have you changed your nickname?
Why oh why? Have you made your skin white when you are black or what?
Well... I am faithful to my old nickname Lady Macbeth. Don't know why.
I think I should stay Lady Macbeth till the day when someone will ask me officially to change
my nickname again. But what a new nickname should I have then? I have no idea, really.
So lets leave sleeping dogs lying - my option for today.
Anyway - nice to see you here Vega in New Year 2011:)
I can see you put here some older music. I am comming back with something latest.
I must admit I presented here some Jimi Hendrix too. In my earlier posts in this thread. Maybe 2 or 3 years ago - his greatest hits like for example Woodoo child and some others.
I would have to look for that entry but I don't have a mood for that today.
Ok. When no mood for something older , something latest in a bit ... similar mood (hahaha)
First Empire of the Sun - Australian duo that plays electronical music in their hit
"We are the people" hmmm... hard to believe it but they seem to be rather human artists so who knows.... anyway lets start :
Empire of The sun We are the people
Another song that I want to present today is next duo (two duos today) - they are Taio Cruz and Australian superstar Kylie Minogue in their hit HIGHER.
Here we go:
Taio Cruz Ft Kylie Minogue Higher Official Video
So how you can see two duos and two times Australia in this entry! How do you like it?
Well ...as deals me I still like British Chemical Brothers or Faithless much more than Empire of the Sun electronical sounds. Though who knows - maybe soon I will change my opinion.
I mean what is British should stay British. And what is European should stay in Europe.
Empire of the Sun is too colorful to me. They can be colourful but they shouldn't be so much about journeys and landscapes somehow. I don't know. Too me they should be more about visions, imaginations - they are too US like. Though something new, indeed.
Someone else must rock when noone likes British electronical hits today.
People like interesting lanscapes and fast cars much better. Even with old Kylie Minogue inside.
What is your opinion about it Vega? Write it here please.
I am curious to know it.
Soon next songs from me.
LM.
ps. when it is so difficult to make a solo career these days as it seems to me (even for Kylie Minogue? though she started in duo as I remember) maybe we two also will make a musical duo to earn for a good life. What do you think about it Vega?
It is just my another idea how to make a career.
Can it work? What music would you like to play/sing?
Think about it.

Hi Lady Macbeth,
Nice to see you. Thank you for the videos! However, the first link does not open. It says: This video contains material from the partner Vevo, who has blocked this content for display in your home country in order to comply with copyright laws.
..
Unfortunately, I don't know what the conditions of modern electronic music are to keep a conversation with you. I simply listen to it.
Here's a nice electronic single 2u:
Röyksopp - So Easy (Mononoke)
..my voice doesn't suit for singing..Perhaps, slow rap. Do you agree on slow rap band?
Bye for now,
Have a very nice days!

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi Vega and everyone else who cares...
Thanks for your last music here - very interesting. I don't like Marilyn Manson - I don't like both these videos and music. Ryoksopp and Delphic are Ok, Delphic is better to me - video is OK but too cheap. This video is really great but too cheap and in case of Royksopp I think musicans don't want to be stars and that's the problem why they cannot be more successful. Of course this is my private opinion - they must think they are great musical artists instead of thinking about earning good money and be more famous here and there.
Now time for some others words from me.
To start with I want to say I am worried you cannot open my first link - though I am not sure which musical link do you mean - Berliner's musicians or Empire of the Sun? Berliner's musicans 2011 are banned indeed ( I am not sure why - but that's different problem) however We are the people by Empire of the Sun is still visible on my computer screen - I mean their video (and music too).
Well... how I wrote earlier ( or I am doing it now) I like this song of their and I like the video to it and their ideas about make up but I want to write others songs of this duo arenot as good as We are the people and I don't like them too much. Some are not the worst but well... maybe they should have different videos in the future, others arenot good - I think about tunes.
As deals videos in future they should probably go into direction of Coldplay's video you put here to their song Don't panic - so in my opinion they shoud do something similiar or... something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I am not sure. Noone can know it I think. We will live we will see what they will make up.
Well what I want to write here is to encourage people to rethink the subject of video as art that should accompany to the music. Thus I want to put here today two videos - they both are Coldplay's - which one is really better to their music? This is my question for today.
1.
Coldplay TROUBLE1
2.
Coldplay TROUBLE2
Ok. That's all today from me.
LM
ps1. What do you think about Katie Melua Vega? Do you know her songs?
ps2. At last I must also write that I am very worried you cannot see any great future before our musical duo. Anyway maybe this is better solution that singing slow rap.
However you know - we can have mysterious make ups and nicknames like Emipre of the Sun and try at least. Otherwise we can be very unhappy in life we lost a chance for something.
Don't you think? Even if we can sing only slow rap (if we are able to sing it well of course)
Soon next songs from me! Be patient!

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi my glamorous Lady Machbeth and everyone else who click the link we post..
Thank you for the videos.
So, you find Delphic's video cheap.
..Well, I think you're a type of person who loves much visually rather than spiritually. Therefore, I prepared some fancy videos today for you.
Nevertheless, I think that a video, or art in general, being cheap could comprise a lot..meaning, a philosophy. Have you ever seen any meaning in the Lady Gaga's or Beyonce's (and other R&B singer's) creativities. It's selling-out music, and so to encourage people to buy their music they are filming expensive videos every year..However, next year almost no one listening to their old songs, because it's not fashionable this year. This is what I observe here.
You asked me if I knew Katie Melua. Surprisingly, but I do have one song of her in my player. That's Nine Million Bicycles single from Ministry Of Sound-Chillout Sessions (CD 1) album. I like it very much. Did you hear that song?
..I didn't like em', even a beautiful girl can't sing properly. They have no future certainly. They just don't have talents to play and sing the way to be appreciated.
Peter, Bjorn & John - Young Folks
The Fratellis - Flathead
Vanilla Sky - Just Dance
P.S.
All is not gold that glitters.

lol ..You know, my cousin has a musical band. They play alternative rock. They spent money to buy all musical instruments needed and even found a beautiful girl for the vocal. They often come together for rehearsals. I was once there to see how they play.LadyMacbeth wrote:However you know - we can have mysterious make ups and nicknames like Emipre of the Sun and try at least.

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hello everyone (Vega first)
As I can see your new songs here again. Very nice. Specially I like Peter , Bjorn and John in their biggest hit (as I remember well) "Young folks". The Fratellis and Vanilla Sky you put here are also quite good though Lady Gaga's hit sounds much more...dancy, don't you think?
Though I didn't know she didn't sing it first (as it seems to me now). Anyway she has some good hits and that's all I should know about this artist. Why Lady Gaga's "Just dance" rocked?
I think it was better to dance to this music (I don't remember if she had the same lyrics - probably - but it isn't too important in this case). More important is Lady Gaga comes from Italy and like in case of Madonna she/her songs are very tuneful (in spite of all electronics) -
I think this is what makes them hits.
Anastasia has been silent lately. I remember her hits some years ago. I hope she will sing
one day again . She had very good songs - I mean -tuneful/ lyrics OK and I liked them very much.
Well... you are right of course everything is for a moment on hit lists but when you can hear a song time and again, you can identify the artist and then be more interested in this artist, go for a concert. Of course you will not see the video any more (apart from special music programmes) but I think it all makes sense and work and that 's just life, don't you think?
Ok. Now turn for my music. First something slower - Leona Lewis in her song RUN (learn English singing songs):
Leona Lewis RUN
And something faster - Taio Cruz - Dynamite:
Taio Cruz Dynamite
What do you think about my two ideas for today? One slower, one faster. I hope both are OK.
Well... what more can I write here? I think I am dissapearing for some time.
Soon I am comming back again with HOT latest HITS and some old songs too though I am totally aware I should rather have been writing something about animals during last 5 years I am present on englishclub.com forum. Really! It could be more useful to me today. Cause what can I do (in practice) with this all music I presented here? Nothing. I can only be happy that people want to come here and read this all stuff that I am writing here MOSTLY - not only me but you have to admit this thread is mostly my creativity.
OK. That's all for today from me - to end this post I am putting here last Rihanna in David Guetta's song "Who's that chick?" (by the way I am mentioning animals here). The quaility of the video below is really shabby (sorry!!!) but you can find something better here or there on-line as I can suppose if you really want it.
David Guetta's feat. Rihanna who's that chick
See me here soon again,
LM
As I can see your new songs here again. Very nice. Specially I like Peter , Bjorn and John in their biggest hit (as I remember well) "Young folks". The Fratellis and Vanilla Sky you put here are also quite good though Lady Gaga's hit sounds much more...dancy, don't you think?
Though I didn't know she didn't sing it first (as it seems to me now). Anyway she has some good hits and that's all I should know about this artist. Why Lady Gaga's "Just dance" rocked?
I think it was better to dance to this music (I don't remember if she had the same lyrics - probably - but it isn't too important in this case). More important is Lady Gaga comes from Italy and like in case of Madonna she/her songs are very tuneful (in spite of all electronics) -
I think this is what makes them hits.

Anastasia has been silent lately. I remember her hits some years ago. I hope she will sing
one day again . She had very good songs - I mean -tuneful/ lyrics OK and I liked them very much.
Well... you are right of course everything is for a moment on hit lists but when you can hear a song time and again, you can identify the artist and then be more interested in this artist, go for a concert. Of course you will not see the video any more (apart from special music programmes) but I think it all makes sense and work and that 's just life, don't you think?

Ok. Now turn for my music. First something slower - Leona Lewis in her song RUN (learn English singing songs):
Leona Lewis RUN
And something faster - Taio Cruz - Dynamite:
Taio Cruz Dynamite
What do you think about my two ideas for today? One slower, one faster. I hope both are OK.
Well... what more can I write here? I think I am dissapearing for some time.
Soon I am comming back again with HOT latest HITS and some old songs too though I am totally aware I should rather have been writing something about animals during last 5 years I am present on englishclub.com forum.

Do you like it?
Jennifer Lopez - On The Floor ft. Pitbull

Hello here again,
Hi Vega and everyone who cares about music -any music but specially about pop music I think.
Well... I have been rather absent in this thread lately but today I am back.
Why? Just to say Hello to some nice people who are here with me but not only.
Today we have a great day. A ceremony of royal wedding is comming soon.
I have come here to say my ONLY HAPPY MOMENTS IN LIFE to the young couple and whole royal family in London.
Well... I don't know what song/s should I choose today. It is really difficult to choose a proper one - possible at all?
So I decided to put kind of musical story. Why? Because of this reason. It is really difficult to choose a proper song on the day of royal wedding.
So to start with I am putting here latest Kate Perry in her song ET. How do you like this video?
Let me know about it. Here we go:
Katy Perry - E.T. ft. Kanye West
Ok. Once again then - how do like the video above? Personally I have to write here I am waiting anxiously for a next song performed by Kate Perry. By the way I REALLY HOPE it will be more like the song performed by Jessie J beneath:
Jessie J - Price Tag ft. B.o.B
You know time will show what future will bring to many people - both to the young royal couple who are going to be married in some moments today and to Kate Perry - a great pop star and to Jessie J ... raising pop star probably. Whom of the people mentioned by me above you like the best - it is up to you.
That all for today from me. Soon some latest German hits at last, Why not?
SQUARE ONE - I like it. Really.
But today I think Kate Perry and Jessie J suit better to express what I have in mind in this thread.
Of course I don't have to be right. Who said I must be right. Doth noone said it.
All he best to all of you,
Lady Macbeth

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi a new post today,
some new songs... and videos.
So lets start:
1 First song in English:
Rihanna S & M
2. Two other songs in English:
Cheryl Cole - Parachute
3.
Tonight (I'm Lovin' You)
4. And at last a song in Polish. The song is named in English "I think it didn't mean at all"
What is the song about? Well a singer performs a concert, then he goes out with one of his female fans, they have some time together and soon he isn't able to recognise the face of the person whom he has already met. So he sings "I think it didn't mean at all". How do you like the song? I hope you will like it. It is very tuneful. The performer is named Robert Gawlinski and he used to be a singer in Polish band called WILKI - THE WOLVES in English before he decided to sing on his own.
So Robert Gawliński and Polish song "I think it didn't mean at all":
Robert Gawliński - Nie stalo sie nic
Soon next songs from me,
LM

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi today!
How do you like Polish WOLVES - I hope you will like the song I put into this nice thread yesterday. I want to add here today that to be quite sincere Robert Gawlinski met 1 girl in his song and he thought even if he should have dated her. Yesterday I wrote he had met many girls. Not so many I want to correct today.
All in all his only conclusion was "I think it didn't mean at all".
Well ... maybe in fact there were more girls he met but major part of his song is about one girl - I mean he must have been thinking like - is one girl OK to me or more girls are better. Such things. You know... anyway I think observing his life that he became very nervous somehow about many beautiful girls he met during his musical career. Can you feel it?
I think it is rather easy to guess it. Why it happened like that? I don't have any explanation. But you can help me with your ideas from around the world. I hope for that.
Some people have quite different ideas about many beautiful women around.
Below one of such people - Sean Kingston and his song "Beautiful girls"
Here we go:
Sean Kingston Beautiful girls
I hope you like the song above too.
Last but not least - hit for today is Black Eyed Peas in their latest song "just can't get enough".
Rather slower song to think many ideas over... why not?
The Black Eyed Peas - Just Can't Get Enough
Soon more again,
LM

Hi today...
Specially I want to welcome VEGA. Hello!
Well I don't know if Enrique Iglesias video is hot or not. I think it was OK to put something ....from hot country. Spain? Ok. Enrique? OK. Though I had some other possibilities like latest version of old Vaya Con Dios hit Hey nah nah nah:
1. Milk & Sugar vs. Vaya Con Dios - Hey (Nah Neh Nah)
2. or Caro Emerald in her hit A night like this:
Caro Emerald a night like this
I don't know what to think about Enrique far from his songs. I don't know him. Maybe he is what his music looks like, maybe not. Should I care about it at all? He is just famous not matter what song he will sing a next one. A hit or a flop - he is still Enrique Iglesias and that means.
Anyway, don't think I think about Enrique music as about something that cannot be replaced.
Not at all!
Watch how easily you can put someone else into his place. Is this music worse than his songs? I don't think so.
Finally time my last hit for today - it will be Snoop Dogg in his song SWEAT:
Snoop Dogg - Sweat
How do you like the music for today? I hope you like it much.
Soon next songs from me,
LM
ps. as deals weather in Poland we had snow on 3rd May here. Really.
I even took some pictures and I can send them here.
Typically Polish May vegetation in snow.
Maybe soon I will put here some interesting photos with this natural phenomena in proper thread. I think it is quite interesting.
All the best to everyone,
LM

Hello today:)
Have I put any Balkan music here? Lately? I am not sure. Spanish guitar only.
Anyway what I am putting here is music - classical, pop, rock.
Today some classical piano music to rest from many colourful videos I have put here lately.
I hope you will like it.
I like piano music the best. Guitar is the most practical musical instrument but piano is my
number 1. Soon some fiddles here.
Today Irena Koblar playing Scarlatti again - probably she is from Balkans but I am not sure.
Irena Koblar, Scarlatti Sonata K. 119 in D major
All the best,

Hello again in this thread,
I can see some new songs here. How nice. Some Michael Jackson (I am trying to avoid this artist) and some other pieces of music.
What I want to put here today is a little bit better - what I hope - Enrique Iglesias music than his latest hit tonight I am loving you that has been openly criticised in this thread as a boring and tuneless music. I hope you like him again in his song that I am putting here today called HEARTBEAT.
Soon my next ideas for good songs to listen to here and some my latest poems in a thread for poetry writers.
Enrique Iglesias - Heartbeat ft. Nicole Scherzinger
All the best to everyone,

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hi younger and older English learners again,
here are my ideas for today - 4 times THE SEA cause to me water protection seems to be the most important issue as deals nature protection. Healthy water means healthy lifestyle.
At least to me.
These days I have only few new interesting musical ideas to put them here.
Thus maybe time for some musical revision again - why not?
So lets start with water (and not only) :
1.
James Blunt carry you home
2.
Natalie Imbruglia Wrong Impression
3.
James Blunt Stay the night
4.
Colbie Cailcat bubble
Soon next songs from me here... in the meantime I am waiting for your ideas.

Here are some corrections to help you out -
I love listening to music. I like to listen it all the time. I recently taught an English class based on an English song. I don't know if you have listened that. It is James Blunt's 'You're Beautiful'. If you haven't listened it, you can listen it or watch it. It's really good.
Re: what are you currently listening to?

Hello today on 25th December 2011,
all the best because of Christmas that is going away this moment... fortunatelly or unfortunatelly.
I REALLY don't know. Maybe some your opinions?
Anyway next Christmas in one year and in the meantime an old but good Christmas hit to sing it together. Why not?
First its original version and then karaoke version - a little bit more difficult to sing it but life is to learn every day - English language - why not? Singing in English? Why not? My opinion.
Specially Christmas song.
So two versions of Christmas song mentioned above for shy/less talented people -with -and for brave/more talented people without Mariah - it is up to you to decide.
Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You with Mariah
Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You without Mariah
Ok. How are you feeling after that Christmas singing?
When you feel a little bit excited or what try to move a little bit - why not again? After this all Christmas eating it is good to think about some mountain climbing or pushing something up a hill - even a senseless stone to lose some kilogrames or in case when your physical appearance still has no bad points just to help your muscles be a little bit stronger to make them working for your body more efficiently. Why not?
So here we go with a song thinking about tomorrow and about some active rest in future.
I mean - mountains? why not?
Avicii - Levels
Ok. What more I want to write is that in the video above we can also see some mental hospital story. What for -can you ask- I am mentioning it.
Some thinking about psychiatrist after Christmas meeting with your family should be also taken into account -why not? My opinion. Maybe you haven't seen your boyfriend or cousins for a longer time and during THIS CHRISTMAS you have just come to conclusion that without mental hospital in the meantime next Christmas together is out of order - really. Who should go to the psychiatrist - I don't know - still some time to decide, isn't it?
To be continued soon...

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hello on 2nd January 2012,
Here I am again to send you a new song. However first I want to ask you about Gabrielle - how do you like her songs? Beneath something more about her.
Write about it please. By the way I want to encourage you to read Bridget Jones diary - to improve your English and not only - it is a book for a year. How many books are you able to read during 1 year? Maybe you should start with Bridget Jones diary?
Look below what is the book about:
What do you think about the idea - 1 chapter per 1 month. And in the meantime to practise English something like that on your own. I mean my own English language DIARY - starting with January.
It a great time to start such a thing and an interesting idea I think. I don't want to say you have to LIKE or LOVE this book but you have to admit that its composition is very good/interesting/makes sense and it is good to read a little of this book from time to time and write something similar from your own life just to practise English - I mean to start your own diary.
I also want to say I am not trying to force anyone to go and buy this book in a bookshop - it is possible to download it for free as pdf. file. Is it correct? Moral? Right? I am not sure - but it is a fact and you can read it online for free or even print this book too to have its your personal version. Putting things different way - why not to use this book as a encouragment to write your own diary much more interesting and beat Bridget's diary? For example one can open this book several times per month to read it and write what interesting happened in his/her life in the same time - just to compare.
Last but not least - song for today "VIDEO GAMES"
What do you think about this song?
What do we know about its singer?
Beneath some short info about her - just to read and know:
LANA DEL REY-VIDEO GAMES
Read me soon again,
LM
Here I am again to send you a new song. However first I want to ask you about Gabrielle - how do you like her songs? Beneath something more about her.
Next I want to ask you about your New Year resolutions. Have you made any? I am very interested.Louisa Gabrielle Bobb (born 16 April 1970; Hackney, London) is a multi-platinum selling, BRIT Award winning English singer, who records under the name Gabrielle. Gabrielle began her career temping during the day and singing for free in London clubs at night. A demo she had recorded around Tracy Chapman's Fast Car found its way into the hands of an A&R man at Go!Beat records and that sample subsequently became Dreams, minus the Chapman sample. Her unconventional image including short tight curls and an eye patch soon became iconic and she is best known for her singles "Dreams", "Rise" and "Out of Reach".
Write about it please. By the way I want to encourage you to read Bridget Jones diary - to improve your English and not only - it is a book for a year. How many books are you able to read during 1 year? Maybe you should start with Bridget Jones diary?

Ok. As you can see some religious ideas also occur in this book.Contents

APRIL Inner Poise
MAY Mother-To-Be
JUNE Hah! Boyfriend
JULY Huh
AUGUST Disintegration
SEPTEMBER Up The Fireman's Pole
OCTOBER Date With Darcy
NOVEMBER A Criminal in the Family
DECEMBER Oh, Christ

Re: what are you currently listening to?
Hello,
after some longer break I am going to put here some music again. Cause in my country we have Easter time I am going to put here some music to match the time.
It will be Mexicana version of Johan Strauss Orchestra that is - I think - started and conducted by a Dutchman - Andre Rieu - beneath you can read what I have found both about Andre Rieu and about his life, orchestra on wikipedia portal and soon some more music from me to everyone all over the world. This music I have found is not only for Easter time I think. It is a music proper to other parts of the year too. I chose 2 performances - first performance "La Paloma" is the shorter one and another "Fiesta mexicana" is longer one.
1. La Paloma
2. Fiesta Mexicana
And here some infor from wikipedia about Andre Rieu:
André Léon Marie Nicolas Rieu (born 1 October 1949) is a Dutch violinist, conductor, and composer best known for creating the waltz-playing Johann Strauss Orchestra.
The name Rieu is of French Huguenot origin. He began studying violin at the age of five. His father, of the same name, was conductor of the Maastricht Symphony Orchestra. From a very young age he developed a fascination with orchestra. He studied violin at the Conservatoire Royal in Liège and at the Conservatorium Maastricht, (1968–1973). His teachers included Jo Juda and Herman Krebbers. From 1974 to 1977, he attended the Music Academy in Brussels, studying with André Gertler, getting his degree "Premier Prix" from the Brussels Royal Conservatory.
At University he performed the Gold And Silver Waltz by Franz Lehár. Encouraged by the audience reaction he decided to pursue the waltz form. Rieu formed the Maastricht Salon Orchestra and performed as a violinist with the Limburg Symphony Orchestra. In 1987, he created the Johann Strauss Orchestra and his own production company. Since then, his melodramatic stage performances and rock-star demeanor have for some been associated with a revival of the waltz music category. André Rieu plays a 1667 Stradivarius violin.
The Orchestra began in 1998 with 21 members but now performs with between 80 and 150 musicians. At the time the Orchestra first toured Europe, there emerged a renewed interest in waltz music. The revival began in the Netherlands and was ignited by their recording of the Second Waltz from Shostakovich's Jazz Suites. As a result, Rieu became known as the waltz King.
Rieu and his orchestra have performed throughout Europe, in North America, and Japan. Winning a number of awards including two World Music Awards, their recordings have gone gold and platinum in many countries, including 8-times Platinum in the Netherlands.
In September 2007 Rieu performed in Australia for the first time solo.
He is married to Marjorie, who works with him full-time as production manager, and has two sons, Marc and Pierre. He speaks (in order of fluency) Dutch, English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.
That's all for today.
I hope you have had nice Easter time if you celebrate it.
Soon more music from me,
LM
