Rita Reys was Europe’s First Lady of Jazz and as such one of the greatest artists of all time. Her profound taste, rhythmical power and craftsmanship of storytelling are incomparable.
Paying tribute to Rita Reys is something you would naturally expect Dutch jazz singer Dasha Beets do. Dasha was blessed to know jazz legend Rita Reys personally, following Rita’s live concerts and listening to her recordings, as well as taking lessons from her. Dasha cherishes deeply in her heart all the moments with Rita Reys both on and off stage. Not only her friendship with Rita in privat life, but also their numerous performances together, instilled in Dasha an ultimate striving for the art of storytelling in jazz music.
