Dasha Beets
'Tribute to Bach & Rita Reys'
Two sets, one concert: Before the break, Dasha Beets will perform Bach… because—Bach in contemporary arrangements, with poetry (translated by Dasha) and jazz/blues improvisations full of swing. After the break, Salute to Rita follows, an intimate tribute to 'First Lady of Jazz' Rita Reys (†2013) with a personal choice from the American Songbook and excursions to bossa nova, Bacharach, Beatles and chanson. Album Salute to Rita was released by Dasha on May 8, 2026.
