Description
According to Jaroslav Uhlíř, music composers have their god. Hitpánbíčka. If he truly exists, he has taken an extraordinary liking to Jaroslav and gifted him with the talent of melodiousness. Among his approximately six hundred songs, there are plenty of hits: Northern Wind, Doing, No Need, or the iconic Pigeon House. Although most of his songs were originally created for a children's audience, adults know and sing them without shame. This book features an extensive interview with the composer, where we not only recall the circumstances surrounding the creation of notoriously famous hits but also revisit his childhood in Prague's Žižkov. Many of his collaborators and friends contribute their memories of working with the outstanding composer. And what would a complete view of Uhlíř be without Svěrák and Šíp!
