I had the joy to play with him in the Vienna state opera. I won't forget that day till the end of this life.

"My fellow Austrians. I shall not be seeing you, again perhaps for a very long time. I would like to sing for you now, a love song. I know you share this love. I pray, that you will never let it die." Captain Von Trapp - The Sound of Music (1965). Captain Von Trapp: Edelweiss, edelweiss Every morning you greet me Small and white, clean and bright You look happy to meet me Blossom of Snow May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever Edelweiss, edelweiss Bless my homeland forever Edelweiss, edelweiss Maria: Small and White Captain Von Trapp and Maria: Clean and bright Captain Von Trapp, Maria and the children: You look happy to meet me Captain Von Trapp, Maria, the children and the crowd: Blossom of snow May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever Edelweiss, edelweiss Bless my homeland forever THE SOUND OF MUSIC (1965): Movie of the 1960s, and definitely the best musical film to date.

if there could ever be one background song to lead me on my way to Heaven, this would be it.

Andre Rieu and his orchestra out here practicing social distancing 5 years before the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that is what I call foresight.

My lovely Dad sang this to me and my sisters as young girls. Next week we will follow his coffin to the same. Just love. ❤️💔

This song is my childhood, my fondest memory of my grandparents, and my soon -to-be wedding song

iT SOUND SO BEATIFUL ,I LOVE EDELWEISS.

A three minute break from what's happening around the world... what a relaxing music! ♥️

This song will play at my funeral. Absolutely love it. Will never ever forget what I felt when I first heard it in the movie.

I'm gonna be honest, i'm more the hard rock type. I'm only listening to his music to impress my grandma, but i gotta admit the man has skill. They all do.

My beautiful mother Jean Edelmann died almost fifty years ago, I miss her so. This was her favorite song.

My dearest Maestro!You are beautiful and romantic. YOU are the Best all round the world! The King Of Waltz!👑

Could you imagine being outside and hearing this from miles away and thinking.... angels are literally singing

I was half expecting to see Julie Andrews come running across the mountain. Beautifully done!

BRILLIANT man and orchestra - let us raise the money to support Andre Rieu - deserves all the awards that the musical world could ever offer. Nobel Peace Prize would likewise be in order.

Even the cows were enjoying it.

And then in the background, all you see is a hiker slowly backing away from the orchestra he stumbled upon on his Wednesday hike 😄

Such a memorable performing of such a classic song. It brings tears to my eyes as I have the fondest memories of this music during my childhood watching The Sound of Music! ❤️❤️❤️

15 minutes ago was dreaming I was in the house of my dear Grandmother, who passed. And on her TV in my dream this Most Beautiful Music is playing.

Beautiful music, beautiful setting, beautiful Andre and his orchestra.

You can't be a human. For me you are an angel came from heaven to take us to the heaven. Your music can take my mind to the heaven. After hearing this, all the buried feelings in my heart came out. I felt both happy and sad together. Hope and fear together. You are speaking heaven's language. You are taking me to a wonderful dream. I don't want to wake up from this dream. Man, I don't think I appreciated you too much. For me you are better than Beethoven.

Why hasn't this man been given an Grammy?

Thank you God for such beautiful music

This music was often played in my childhood home during Soares organised by my grandfather & father on grand piano. It's in my DNA. Maestro & his Orchestra bring much healing 2 all people & our Planet! It is a gift of GOD. Countess Smirnoff Lusie 😁 ♥️

Love this music so much from the ageless Sound of Music! Brings so much memories of my childhood days!

So beautiful song and so beautifully interpreted by Andre on his violin and his orchestra, with a wonderful background!!!!

Andre you are from the netherlands,thank you❤ you are the best violin in the world,janny,the netherlands.

When I saw the cows watching and listening… I cried. Just beautiful 💝

Andre Rieu - you angel!!! Thanks to God that He has sent you to us!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!

This music gives the impression that we are in the heaven. So beautiful.

We played this one on the funeral of my grandfather, he was such a fan of André and his greatest love was always Austria. Thank god he had the chance to meet André a few times and has visit Austria multiple times. This song and any other songs of André seems so calm me down so much and brings back the memories i had with my grandfather listening to his DVD’s or shows on TV. Someday my sister and i will go to a show of André just for our grandfather Thanks for making great music André, you will keep the memories alive of my grandfather.

I just love Edelweiss, reminds me so much of Salzburg. Andre plays it so beautifully, you think you are there with him and the Johann Strauss Orchestra ❤❤

RIP Christopher Plummer....the Captain Vontrap will be missed....

Certain songs give you goose bumps and this is one of them .love it.

Very romantic and sweet melody Edelweiss, and interpreted by Andre and his violin, with a beautiful scenery is to dream for!!!

When I heard the vocals come in I thought it was all in my head and then I realized they weren't, absolutely amazing

Went on a trip to Germany, Austria, and Hungary several months ago. The song really reminds me of the beautiful moments when I was there.

Music is more important than your heartbeat. It makes life bright and beautiful. It adds light where there is darkness. It is the very essence of life

Dieses berühmtes Lied aussert Etwas Grossartiges. Es errinert mich an die Zeiten, wo ich als Kind war. Meine, schon verstorbene Gtossmutter hat im Garten gehabt kleine Blümchen,- Edelweiss.

I love your music, Andre Rieu. Simply amazing.

I love this man and this song. It is one of my favorites. So very lovely and emotional.

One of my favorite songs!!!!!

So wunderbar,ein kleines edelweiss,danke andre,janny aus die niederlande.

Man in the high castle brought me here. Season 3 coming soon to Amazon prime.

I love André & his beautiful music. He is amazing!❤️❤️❤️

If I let myself, my eyes will fill with tears when I listen to this beautiful rendition. Just to listen to his violin and the enormous unseen choir singing when the song reached its climax!🎶😢❤

Gyönyörű csodálatos zseniális rendkívül felejthetetlen álomszép album? TOP10KÖSZÖNÖM 🎻👑🌹♥️🌷🌹🌷💚 fantasztikus volt

This is so wondrous to watch and listen to! I need a lot of inspiration to help cope with my mother's passing the other day, in the Philippines! Thanks and bravo!

A song forever in our hearts! A song of HOPE,LOVE AND FAITH❤️❣️

The first time I listened to it, I did not notice the choir in the back, as it rose and fell so subtly, but it made a huge impact on the beauty of the song. The second time, I heard it, and it was so powerful, so beautiful, that it caused a tear to fall. This is one of the most beautiful songs I know, and André Rieu turned it into a masterpiece among masterpieces.

André Rieu természet iránti csodálatának leggyönyörűbb előadása.❤❤❤

Oh, to return to a time when life was more innocent. When The Sound of Music debuted. How we have changed since then, some things are better, but many things are far worse. So much hatred in the world today.

Thank God for the gift of Music! And all the "infinite" talent distribution around the world...His creation!!

"Edelweiss..." Beautiful!!! ❤️. Andre Rieu🌹 Genius.

Thank you, Andre Rieu and Johann Strauss Orchestra! A great birthday gift!

Herlich, danke, bleibt gesund❤❤❤

Honestly love this song my grandpa used to play it for me and for a while I count listen to it without the reminder of his death but this brings it all back the good memories and the fact of how much I loved him

So beautiful. Such wonderful music!

The sound of muzik❤❤❤

the national flower of Austria.

Beautiful, as everything that you play! It is like the way to Heavens!

Brilliant!This reminds me of the dream I had, just before my Mother in Law died. The dream showed the most amazing "mountain of the Lord" (as it was imbued in Holiness and Divinity). Breathtakingly astoundingly beautiful! "The mountain of the Lord!"

This song helped me through the darkest days of my life, realizing how precious life is and how dear I am to my family.

Prelepa muzika iz prelepog I nezoboravnog filma, film za sva vremena, divan video@

Playing this music in the mountain got a definite meaning and story to tell. So amazing !

Apreciado André , es usted el mejor y más excelso Maestro en el arte de la música, capaz de lograr que el alma vuele libre, al encuentro de su Creador. Gracias.

This piece IS simply Wonderful , Thank You maestro Andre Rieu and J.S.O.👏👏👏

The most beautiful orchestra! Andre, what talents and gifts God has bestowed on you!

I love that song. I have never heard played so beautiful. I cried first time, I heard it.

Lindo demais 👏 Suas músicas me trazem paz tranqraquilidade espiritual, qdo me sinto inquieta recarrego minhas energias ouvindo suas músicas. Parabéns vc é um espetáculo Deus abençoe 👏

This video is just magic! Nature embellished by a marvellous music performed by an extraordinary Group of Musicians and by an enchanting Violinist! We are in a tale.

André Rieu is just so romantic looking tall blonde and handsome and he brought such divine music back into the world so magnificently. Bravo André!

"Edelweiss" is one of my favorites during the 60s.

Maestro simply magnificent!

Beautiful

Tele erzelemmel , bűbályos előadás. Ezt csak te tudod, édes , Andre! Köszönöm. ❤

Superlative, splendido, incomparabile, unico, bravissimo: e' uno spettacolo nello spettacolo: armonioso, brioso, una melodia super-eccellente, guarnita con sprazzi di ilarita' e comicita', che avvolgono con straordinaria partecipazione tutto il pubblico presente! La Sua musical ed I suoi brain, rimarranno in eterno! Bravissimo: complimenti vivissimi, soprattutto x il duo waste ed enorme repertorio musicale, che spazia in tutti I campi musicali: lirico-classico-musica-leggera e moderna-antica. Un plauso special va comunque alla sua splendida orchestra, ed ovviamente ai suoi componenti: bravissimi ed eccezionali! Auguroni Andre': sempre cosi'.

I think the cow loved being serenaded.

In memory of my deceased husband John who loved this music 🎼!

Sad that real Austrian songs aren’t this popular

Love it...beautiful masterpiece of music ...and amazing orchestra...

Творчество Андре и его оркестра погружает в какую-то сказку, волшебство, вызывает сильные чувства у публики, никого не оставляет равнодушным. Вот бы придти на его концерт, посмотреть на это волшебство вживую. Браво маэстро! Браво оркестр! Браво солисты! Какая огромная работа все организовать! Браво танцоры!

A szférát zenéje megköszönöm ahányszor csak meghallgatom! Gyönyörű ❤🎻

I Love André Rier💚 🌎💚

Very beautiful, thank you. ❤

From all the memories of the great past, ah I can't get enough, it's 1:41 am but I think I'll listen to waltzes till as long as I can

Music connects the whole world: from North to South, from east to West and across: André Rieu and the JSO can move an entire audience with laughter but also with tears, André and the JSO have the property to touch you deep into your soul 🦋

Incredibly beautiful music and wonderful performance by Maestro Andre Rieu and his orchestra. Very love his melody, which enables and mesmerized this beauty charm. Thanks

The man who compossed the music for the film sound of music and particularly to this song is not a man but an ANGEL. THANKS.
