André Rieu: December Lights versie op CD in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Polydor op 3. december 2012.

André Rieu - the uncrowned king of the world's waltzes, who has sold more than 100 million albums in the last 20 years, releases his new Christmas album. The most beautiful Christmas melodies in new arrangements by André Rieu.Born in Maastricht, the Netherlands, violinist, composer, arranger and conductor André Leon Marie Nicolas Rieu earned the nickname King of the Waltzes in the early 1990s, when he began to specialise in so-called light classical music, especially Viennese salon music of yesteryear. And he has had unexpected success with it literally all over the world. Just to illustrate the point: last year's Forever Vienna album reached number two on the UK best-seller chart and number four in the Republic of Ireland, in the same year his albums scored high on the Australian chart (Masterpieces at number nine and You'll Never Walk Alone at number two), and in 2008 he was even number one with Waltzing Matilda and number two with The 100 Most Beautiful Melodies.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEYZ2-KpXcM
