Guests | Rūta Ščiogolevaitė: The Best of Whitney Houston

THE BEST OF WHITNEY HOUSTON
RŪTA ŠČIOGOLEVAITĖ
PAULIUS ZDANAVIČIUS

Anyone who has heard Rūta Ščiogolevaitė perform on a professional stage can confidently attest that her vocal mastery is hard to match. An artist who moves boldly across genres, she shines in both pop and jazz. On stage, she is always in good spirits, with a coquettish sense of humour, an emotional connection and an open dialogue with the audience.

This time, she sets out to engage the audience with songs by the legendary pop diva Whitney Houston, who left a profound mark on the music world. According to Rūta herself, Whitney was her first and greatest teacher of all time, with an angelic voice, the spirit of a lion and a divine nature. It is said that even birds would fly in to listen to Whitney’s songs!

Whitney fell many times and rose again, lived a life full of colour, and was always carried along by music. She left the world hits such as “Dance with Somebody”, “I Have Nothing”, “I Will Always Love You”—hailed as the greatest love song of all time—and many others. These are songs generations grew up with, songs that move every sensitive soul and every listener who cares about music. That is why they deserve to be heard again and again, each time paying tribute not only to Whitney herself but also to her timeless music!

“The Best of Whitney Houston” is a unique opportunity to hear how Rūta Ščiogolevaitė has found her way into the lauded, unforgettable repertoire of the American pop star. Together with her loyal stage companion, pianist Paulius Zdanavičius, she will give an intimate acoustic performance. A cosy concert setting, instantly recognisable melodies and the energy of two divas on one stage—everything needed for a cosy winter evening!
