André Rieu is here with his Johann Strauss Orchestra, and their main thing, as you'd expect, is the waltz; it's a form André decided to pursue after his university-age performance of Franz Lehár's <em>Gold and Silver Waltz</em> was very warmly received. The Orchestra was founded by the conductor and violinist in 1987, and has expanded several times from its original twelve members, touring around Europe, North America, and Japan, and winning two World Music Awards in the process.
