thank you obeca for posting these! I remember watching it as a child (I would have been 3 yrs old) and falling in love with him then n there. Have tried many times to find the video, but without luck. Thank you for letting me enjoy it again :)

it works only in german when the piece is announced by the conductor who would not say

Nusskacker-Suite ........... but in the end he said

von Scheißkowski :-)

as Danny said Beefth-Hoven

[Kapputschino12]

Is Andre Rieu any funny?

[ThePilot314]

THe NYPs play really what Danny is conducting!!!!!!!

So the sentence became true, when the orchestra played horrible,

and the amateur conductor asked: “Why you are playing so horrible?”

And the first violinist answered:

“Conduct better and we will play better. We play exactly what YOU conduct.” :-)

[ThePilot314]

What a wonderful and nice fellow.

He died to early :-((((((

[MartinUnterlaa]

I think it often shows Danny was a tummler at the Catskill Mountains. A tumbler is an entertainer or master of ceremony who encourages audience interaction

[Xilluci]

The music was also amazing and beautiful just like Danny. :)

[bot993]

How can some people compare Andre Rieu with the genius like Danny Kaye ??? This is absolutely out of question

[pbmsmit]

Andre is the best!

[MartinUnterlaa]

I would not compare Andre with Danny Kaye. I do not know another such multiple talanted artist as Danny Kaye was...

[jarmeijer]

No comparison is possible in any way. True, Rieu does nice things, but absolutely not like Kaye. Danny is unbeatable. Amazing conductor, amazing performer. One of a kind.

[sirmorty]

think it too that Andre Rieu saw is performances :p

[gpnkt]

anyone know the song at 05:00?

[Terrozer]

Tchaikovsky Nutracker Suite: Arabian Dance

[MorganJServices]

I think Andre took some of Danny's humor and transferred it to his orchestra! Love it!

[showmoon]

ıf I am in love with the classical music, it is because of Danny KAYE.He is one of the first person who created bridges betweeen music and people.He even made an exclusive concert for children.Danny Kaye was a great man.Turkish fan from İstanbul

[ThaSchwab]

Tchaikovsky would be pleased with this performance.
