Magnificent moment - Andre Rieu

I think this is great. Sir Anthony Hopkins, the great actor, is a fan of Andre Rieu, and wrote this waltz, with him in mind. Hopkins has good seats, but not the best in the house. He is introduced, as being the writer of this waltz .... and the band plays .... I have a hunch, with all of his awards, acknowledgements, this one stands taller than any other .......... He appears so proud, genuinely .......... how nice to see ....

the crowd reaction is also magnificent

what a moment.
