Were you waltzing with Andre Rieu at P&J Live?
Andre Rieu waltzed into P&J Live to delight his army of fans.
Thousands of them were thrilled by the maestro’s afternoon gig – a magical blend of classical, contemporary classics and, of course, waltzes.
After all, the Dutch musical master is known as the King Of The Waltz and packs auditoriums wherever he plays, selling 700,000 tickets a year as he tours the globe.
It was clear his north-east fans were thrilled as he put on an an unforgettable show with his Johan Strauss Orchestra and ensemble in lavish costumes against a a spectacular setting.
Our photographer Chris Sumner went along to capture the atmosphere. See if you can spot any familiar faces – or maybe even yourself.
