The group “bet bet” set a unique record with the program “Christmas” in 2023, giving 12 concerts in one concert hall. Now it's time to show this popular program to a wider audience! The concert program will feature such seasonal hits as “Nakts”, “Circenīša Ziemassvētki”, “Ticot, mīlot un gaidot”, “Eglīte”, “Ziemassvētki”, “Burvīga nakts”, “Vēl viens gads ir beidzies” and many other songs that will provide an atmosphere and warm feelings appropriate to the winter season. The arrangements of all songs have been created from scratch. The performance will be complemented by visual video projections.
The special guest of the concerts will be Georgs Rukmanis – Počs, a 2nd grade student of the Riga Dome Choir School and a member of the children's vocal group “Dzeguzīte”, whose participation in the concerts already included in the program was received with huge ovations from the concertgoers! Georgs' original song “Gliemezītis” is already worth something, let alone the duets with Zigfrīds Muktupāvel!
Before and after the concert, it will be possible to purchase the band's 60-song sheet music book, the band's CD albums, the most popular Guntars Račis' latest books and poetry books from the "365" series, as well as the author's Christmas poetry book "Once in a Christmas", and the "Golden Selection" of Christmas songs and poems with classic poems by Porukas, Rainis, Ziemeļnieks, Ziedonis and Vācietis, folk songs, nursery rhymes and song lyrics. Especially in honor of the concerts, the band's most sought-after Christmas CD album of all time "Burvīga nakts", which has not been available for many years and was recorded together with Jāzeps' "Mediņa Music School Boys' Choir", is available again and contains world classics and original songs for the Christmas season, many of which will also be performed at the upcoming concerts.
The band "bet bet" has been on stage for 34 years with almost the same composition and has proven its ability in countless concerts, as well as festivals in Latvia, Poland and Finland. It has performed in Ireland and Norway, and in recent years, celebrating its 30th anniversary, has always gathered full halls, giving the audience the best of its wide range of repertoire. More than ten studio albums and song selections have been released, awards and honors have been won, but the band members still consider the support, applause and smiles of their listeners to be their greatest reward.
