Her elegant and velvety voice has already enchanted the 20,000 visitors to the »Europa Open Air« in summer 2018. Now the Lithuanian singer Viktorija Gečytė returns to the Frankfurt Radio Big Band. She has some of the most beautiful songs from the Great American Songbook as well as her own pieces, which she sings in her mother tongue. Viktorija Gečytė was born in the cradle of music. At the tender age of five, she performed regularly on Lithuanian television. Her career then brought her first to the USA and finally back to Europe, to Paris, where she still lives and has established herself as an outstanding jazz singer.
