Andrã© Rieu In Wonderland [denon]

"The Waltz King of Europe" has been turning out a steady stream of albums since the mid 1990s, and 2007's IN WONDERLAND, a concert recording, shows Andre Rieu's lasting charm. Accompanied by the JohannStrauss Orchestra and his 1667 Stradavarius, Rieu takes listeners into the worldof fairy tales and myth, performing Strauss's "Thus Spake Zarathustra, " Rodgers'"Cinderella Waltz, " and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from THE WIZARD OF OZ. IN WONDERLAND appeared as a highly theatrical concert (complete with costumed characters) on public television, so fans of that program will certainly want to pick this up.
