Compilation of famous songs and new prayer on LP

Marta Kubišová celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of the beginning of her journey to freedom and democracy with an extraordinary November concert in Prague’s Lucerna and this compilation. To the existing offer of differently focused and variously comprehensive selections is added this new one, successfully summarizing in a thoughtful single CD and LP a view of the singer’s extraordinary artistic output.

From the singles greats of the 1960s through selections from the “Songy a balady” (Songs and Ballads) album and the best of the post-1989 recordings, you will find yourself listening to this year’s newly recorded and recorded “Modlitba pro Martu” (Prayer for Martha). The songs – with the singer’s dedication, of course – were chosen by pianist, composer and bandleader Petr Malásek, a long-time collaborator and connoisseur of her repertoire. He is also behind this year’s studio version of “Modlitba pro Martu”, arranged majestically with a large orchestra and sung again after more than fifty years by a mature lady unspoiled by fate.

The message, if you will, of this selection is one of Marta Kubišová’s fundamental artistic and human uniqueness, supported by a number of songs of social overlap and importance. Although the sometimes cruel twists and turns of her life have taken nearly twenty years of a brilliantly successful career, her relevance to Czech & Slovak popular music is nevertheless unquestionable – and here again you will clearly hear why.

Excellent song content, new sound remastering, photography by Otta Dlabola and graphics by Luděk Kubík make this almost twenty-item CD a tribute to the great singer and a reminder of the breakthrough time thirty years ago. A perfect dispatch for 2019, too!
