You'll never walk alone

A new chapter in André's discography unfolds with his album You'll Never Walk Alone. This is an André Rieu "Songbook" - and the songs are those of hope and inspiration.

While retaining everything about the sound of his recordings that his fans know and love, André ventures further, evoking the sound of great orchestras of the 1950s and 1960s.

The program is music entirely new to his discography, and they include tracks requested by fans (two of these being the huge 1960s hit Elizabethan Serenade as well as Nearer, my God, to Thee) to songs from musicals - two from My Fair Lady and one from The Phantom of the Opera.

There are classical favourites beloved by all - Beethoven's tranquil Moonlight Sonata and Elgar's Land of Hope and Glory.

There's a song that for a time acquired pop status - Time to say goodbye. And in a similar vein, André as composer in Yours Forever, a song he wrote for the victims of the recent Australian bushfires in Victoria.

And then there's the title track - a huge sporting song in the UK with no less currency in this market: You'll Never Walk Alone.
