Biography In 1949 André is born under the sign of Libra as his parents'
third child. His parents and their two young daughters had moved from
Amsterdam to Maastricht shortly before. André, his brothers
and sisters grow up exclusively with classical music: symphonies,
chamber music and opera. Encouraged by his father, a professional
conductor, André starts taking violin lessons at the age of
five. In 1978 André Rieu founds his first orchestra, the Maastricht
Salon Orchestra, with which he appears in the Netherlands, the Federal
Republic of Germany and even the United States. At the same time (until
1989) he is engaged as a violinist in the Limburg SymphonyOrchestra.
