George Michael is in hospital suffering from pneumonia

The singer, 48, is in the city’s AKH hospital as an in-patient and has cancelled his next few shows.

A friend told the Mail Online that he was on the road to recovery: ‘He got ill, it’s very cold in that part of Europe, and then he got pneumonia. He’s responding well to treatment, very good. But he has to rest. He’s got to let this illness run its course.’ 

Promoter Manfred Leodolter said yesterday: ‘Doctors have warned him for the moment against flying and he is getting rest in Vienna.’ 

Michael had to cancel a gig in the city on Monday as part of his 
Symphonica tour two hours before it was due to start. 

The gig in Vienna along with ones in Strasbourg and at Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena will be rescheduled, according to his publicist. 

The singer hopes to return to the stage on November 30 at Liverpool's Echo Arena. 

Michael's 47-date European tour started in Prague in August and features a 41-piece symphony orchestra.

Before it kicked off he said: 'I think musically this tour and album will be surprising because I'm being far more true to myself.' 

The star was forced to pull out of a show at London's Royal Albert Hall last month after falling ill with a viral infection and a high temperature. 

That gig has since been rescheduled for May 2, 2012.
