There is also a Dutch music comedian active in Germany, Hans Liberg, and I‘ve seen a video of him titled „Classical music takes too long“.
That‘s part of it. André Rieu takes account of the audience‘s lacking classical music education and patience and breaks it down into easily consumable chunks, integrated in an entertaining show.
He won‘t earn the respect of classical musicians, but that‘s not his target group, so why not, he entertains his specific audience.
Classical music for the masses..
He is not only entertaining but also teaching..
And preserving part of our musical history..
Many people need to learn again about classical music
And this is a great entry point..
