- Andre Rieu expressed interest in touring with Sir Anthony Hopkins alongside his Johann Strauss Orchestra.
- Hopkins reached out in 2011 to have his waltz, composed in his twenties, performed by Rieu’s orchestra.
- They refined the composition, described as a blend of cinematic music and traditional Viennese waltz.
- Rieu believes the waltz reflects the full range of life’s emotions and will endure over time.
A good waltz played is a mirror of life. A waltz is not only 'ha ha ha' and melancholy but it’s both; everything in life is in a waltz, that’s why I love the waltz.— André Rieu on the significance of the waltz.
