The screening of his concert film was the first time in the history of such productions that tickets for more than one million British pounds were sold in just one day. That's it surpassed the previous record, which they had One Direction.
"Emotions are the most important thing in the world" says Rieu. "Decisions should be made with the heart, not with the mind. People often ask me how I decide what to do - it's pure intuition. I love Johann Strauss, but Andrew Lloyd Weber and Bruce Springsteen turn me on too. We should stop limiting ourselves with categorization and boundaries - not only in the context of music, but in general in our lives."
