Attended concerts in Adelaide and Perth. All were fantastic. Love your music.
Why isn't a concert scheduled for Perth for 2009. Perth has supported you all the way with DVD's and CS's and concerts. Very disappointed Perth will not be on the 2009 tour, or has this been wrongly reported.

Andre - Every orchestra has a conductor doing various acrobatics to conduct, how come your orchestra can keep perfect time without you conducting? Also is Suzanne Erens in your tour & did your son recently marry her? looking forward to your Brisbane concert

Good-day Andre!
I 've seen your spectacular showed on TV. So awesome,that I glued on the lounge chair till end of the concert & bugger off the housework! Love to watched you played your violin, so smoothe & easy on you.
Sorry, wonder which parts of you hurt most, arms, legs, fingers or neck??

My Grandmother Audrey is a big fan of Andre's, she wants me to ask;
1) Andre, would you ever consider playing a work (which I think is called) Zardus?
2) Will you be releasing a DVD of the Australian concerts?
3) Has your wife come to Australia with you and if so, is she enjoying her trip?

G'day Andre! I had a small windfall & flew my mother to Adelaide for the concert as a gift 4 just being Mum. As No 1 fans, we'd like to know, how many violins have u had during your career? surely they would wear out at some stage. Also, do u get goosebumps when u play your fave song - like we do? x

Can you please ask Andre if the audio technician responsible for Mirusia's microphone during her 'princess' act when she pulls up in the golden coach, is still employed.
Andre does not have patience with audio techs as seen in a couple of his DVD's

Good morning Andre, Mel and Kochie
Andre, we understand you have a Sradivarius Violin. What is the age of your violin and has any other famous musician owned or played it prior to yourself?
Will you be playing "Concierto De Aranjuez"?
See you in Brisbane.

In May my sister, my dad (Ben) & I visited Holland. I was born in Dordrecht at home - built in 1620! In Maastricht saw your house & St Servatius’ church where you sang in the choir as a boy. How old is your house? Do you still sing? Thanks Andre for giving my parents musical joy (mum died last year)

P.S. from previous comment, and yes its very late!
Andre, please say hello to Ben Willemen, it will make his day. Thanks, Paulineke (harder to say than Rieu!) Try saying my name correctly Kochie!!

Kurt Fearnley: I was relief teaching in Blayney when I met Kurt as a young school boy. The first thing that struck me was his smile and contagious positive outlook at all times. I see nothing has changed with this outstanding Australian. Although I never saw him again, it is a testament to the power of his personality that I have not forgotten him more than 15 years later.
