Andre Rieu’s 2019 New Year’s Concert from Sydney

Certificate

Running Time

Last July, the alarmingly popular, bouffant-haired, self-styled ‘king of the waltz’ broke UK box office records when the broadcast of his annual summer concert from Maastricht took more than £1.7m – more than many Hollywood movies – to become the top-grossing concert release of all time.

So can Andre Rieu beat that with his first ever New Year’s concert? He headed down under for this one, which was recorded at Sydney Town Hall last month. He’s joined by his Johann Strauss Orchestra, with whom he has performed with for over 31 years, plus 160 dancers – all captured in HD for the big screen with more than 18 cameras. Excitingly, your host is Good Morning Britain presenter Charlotte Hawkins.
