About the DVD:
Romantic Paradise (Live in Cortona, Italy)

While on a short holiday in Italy with family and friends, I found myself visiting a small town in Tuscany called Cortona, and I fell in love with it immediately. What an atmosphere! My fans would love this place! And when I wandered into the centre of Cortona I just couldn't believe my luck: right in the middle of the town was the perfect location for my new special: the Piazza Della Repubblica... This was the exact spot, right here between these buildings, in this very special atmosphere, that I wanted for recording the special for my new CD. With everyone invited!

These were the ideas that marked the start of what was to become the Romantic Paradise adventure in Cortona. Even though André knew, right from the beginning, that the special release would be a very beautiful one, the final result has exceeded all expectations. The Romantic Paradise DVD is living up to its name on all fronts. Order it now and allow yourself to be swept away to André Rieu's Romantic Paradise.

I took care of a 94 year old woman who just adored you. She would listen to you in the very last days of her life. I believe her spirit became humbled by your glorious orchestra.Thank you, I now I'm going to listen as well

Ennio Morricone composed a masterpiece for the ages. Andre Rieu and his Orchestra's performance penetrates to the very soul. The entire planet can be at peace with this magnificent arrangement.

Truly one of Ennio Morricone's best compositions and Andre Rieu and his orchestra's finest performances. Bravo!

Absolutely stupendous performance from Andre Rieu, the orchestra and Carla Maffioletti!!! Excellent!!!

I've been obsessed with this tune since 1970, and as great as Andre is, I honestly did not think that he could create an arrangement that would do this tune justice. HE DID IT!!!!

So schön, sodass man als Mann sogar zu kämpfen hat seine Emutionen im Griff zu halten 😪

Thank you Master Ennio Morricone for such a wonderful song. Your masterpiece can sing only women with a angel voice.

This just leaves me tearing up so much. It's so beautiful. Ennio Morricone was a musical genius for creating this for Sergio Leone's masterpiece of a film.
