I absolutely love the pure joy on John and Andre's faces as they perform.

As far as I’m concerned this is a Scottish tune called ‘McTavish is dead’ with the lyrics: “McTavish is dead and his brother don’t know it, his brother is dead and McTavish don’t know it. They’re both of them dead and they’re in the same bed and they neither of them know that the other is dead. His brother had suffered from chronic bronchitis, McTavish had suffered from peritonitis and both of them died and oh how they cried, when each of them realised the other had died!” Some of the best nonsense lyrics ever created!

This is one of all time favorites for me. What a wonderful duet between two masters violinists. It is so uplifting and seeing Andre so happy is superb!!!!

The Irish Vibe 🍀 Stirs my Irish Pride! Slainte!

I love this video. Andre is so joyful playing with another great violinist John Sheahan, this happy song Irish Washerwoman. It is a gift to watch it and enjoy it too.!

Браво! Я с огромным удовольствием смотрю и слушаю концерты André Rieu. Где бы не выступал Анре Рье, люди воспринимают каждое выступление всего коллектива артистов с восторгом. Видно, как они умеют радоваться прекрасному... Ведут себя свободно, как в одной огромной семье. Это просто здорово 🌹🌹🌹Я уже много лет смотрю и слушаю концерты Анре Рье...Спасибо большое!!!

This is such a heart warming song

Every time I see Andre and his JSO perform it's a happy and amazing experience especially with his guest performers such as John. Brilliant !

Absolutly perfect. Two amazing violinist, and perfect artists in orchestra too. The crowd couldn' t keep up with the pace of clapping. Big bravo to everyone. The best artists and the best music on the world.❤

ok what did i just witness here! two legends taking the same stage and performing together one of the hardest songs to play on just about any instrument known to man...that to me is a work of art!

Absolutely fantastic, two masters of they're craft enjoying themselves

Just look at how much joy has been captured in this video (and hopefully spreading beyond the screen)

How awesomely played..words arent enough to describe the happiness by the way it has been played.take a bow you all

Look what music do to people!

Once in a generational talent, a truly world class musician. And André Rieu.

I just LOVE Andre Rieu's orchestra and the wonderful music they all play. Such a joy to listen to his happy concerts!

I don't understand how there are no other comments on the poor piccolo who had to keep pace with all that. They only show him while the tempo is still rather slow and calm but they don't bother to show us his suffering as the windows to sneak even a tiny breath continue to shrink until he has to finish the last few stanzas without breathing at all. No wonder his last few notes are so shrill as he fights the urge to pass out in the last few moments. What a legend!!🤣🤣

When you start to play native songs of your village at a festival of your village. This is exactly what happens in my village (in Germany).

SUPER ! Two fantastic artists,a fascinating music and a happy audience ! CONGRATULATIONS !👏👏👏❤🌹🌹🌹

Two masters of their craft, a sight of pure magic.

So wonderful. Some people spend decades sharing and when they have a chance to smile, everyone smiles.

Musicians who love their job, playing for people who are so passionate about their performance that they jump up and dance. Performed by a classical orchestra. This is the Peak of Music; what every musician hopes for!

What a joy they bring to the people. Great performance.

My favorite Irish song is "Go On Home British Soldiers". It has one of the most beautiful melodies ever. Happy holiday brothers 🇷🇸💚🇮🇪

Beautiful, Thank you both two precious violonists.💕

I had not heard this until today - 2018-01-06 - I LOVED IT~!!! I played it 4 times! The reaction of the audience was a treasure when they heard the first notes from John Sheahan, then Andre - then people clapping, smiling, dancing - again, I loved this!!

The Power of Music. Heard this tune at the end scene of The Sweeney 2 , The movie over 40 years ago and never new the title or heard it again, heard it today by accident while brushing my teeth and in a flash recognised it and brought me back to those good old days of my youth.

La beauté de cette musique réside autant dans son rythme que dans son pouvoir de transmettre la joie. Merci! Avez-vous remarqué comme André Rieu et son invité sont heureux de jouer et comme ils sont beaux?

Happy St. Patrick's Day 2019 from Dublin, Ireland :)

Wow. Beautiful Beautiful. Master piece of all time. Lovely crowd.

FUN-TASTIC! The inimitable John Sheahan bringing even the great André Rieu to his limits with his virtuosity on the fiddle. Éire beo fada.

If I was musically inclined, playing with Andre Rieu would probably be my life's dream. Imagine the pleasure and satisfaction of being on that stage with him :)
