Happy New Year !

New Year's Day in Vienna Concert to show Spanish Riding School on US broadcast

Hello,

If any US admirers of the Spanish Riding School are home on New Year's day, I understand that the School will be featured on the PBS "Great Performances" broadcast from Vienna of the New Year's Day Strauss concert. The concert will be broadcast live on many NPR stations earlier in the day, but the telecast, which is supposed to show the School, will be telecast in the evening.

More details at http://www.pbs.org.

I remember the School was shown on this annual telecast in the past too.

A great way to launch the new year--a year in which the Spanish Riding School will return to the United States! I look forward to the fall tour and seeing Andreas and friends again!

Queen Beatrix and Rotterdam !!!

We had our first performance yesterday in Rotterdam.

Beatrix, the Queen of the Netherlands, was present. I had the pleasure to sit next to her and answer her questions during the performance.

Her Majesty is unbelievable nice and friendly. We chatted about Den Haag, where she resides. She rides once a week one of her horses there. She is riding a mare currently, but I forgot the breed. She also keeps Frisians for carriage driving. An unforgatable evening for me.
