André Rieu plays violin with the 5 year old Akim Camara

February 11, 2007 at 6:12 PM

Yesterday I saw a concert of André Rieu in the Radio City Music Hall in New York on Dutch Television, where he play with the 5 year old Akim Camara. More about him on http://www.andrerieutranslations.com/translations/Andre-and-Akim.html He plays the "dance of the fairies" solo with the Johan Strauss orchestra of André Rieu.


Do you think this is child labor or does it mollificates?


He also does a tric by first drinking some water, than pouring water in his ear and than spitting out the water he just drunk, which make some people laugh in the audience.

That kid is adorable, but I dislike Andre Reiu so much that I'm not even going to go into it.

DISCLAIMER: In anticipation of any Rieu-lovers' comments to my above comment, I would like to note that I am a teenager and therefore qualified to hold opinions without having to prove them.
