Karel Special poster

The documentary Karel Špecial by director Olga Malířová Špátová brings an interesting insight into the private life of the music legend. He interprets the confession at the very end of the artist's life with images of the young singer at the start of his musical career. The unique documentary captures Karel Gott in several situations spent in the company of his colleagues, and above all with his wife Ivana, daughters Charlotte and Nelly, but also with his grandchildren.

Director Olga Malirova Spatova's feature documentary authentically portrays Karel Gott as a phenomenal singer who gives his all to his fans, as a painter, but also as a loving husband and father. A man who was spreading joy with his songs for sixty years, among several generations not only here, but also in Europe, and even worldwide. The singer traces the steps of his life, allows viewers to peek behind the scenes of concerts, and shows also his family life and privacy that he otherwise tries to lovingly and humbly protect.

A documentary about Karel Gott that offers an unconventional view of the master. We will show you that he was not only a divine singer, but also a man who loved humor and exaggeration. And most importantly, he was able to make fun of himself. Tereza Kostková will be your guide through the program. We will present skits and humorous dialogues with Karel Gott and our comedians, an unconventional approach to songs and duets where viewers would not expect to see Karel Gott. We will also add a few gems that the audience may have forgotten. His music and smile will never fade!

Jiří Suchý - Tackling Life with Ease poster
7.0

Theatre personality, musician, poet, writer, graphic artist, collector, self-professed clown, eternally young in spirit – all this is Jiří Suchý, one of the key figures of the domestic cultural scene over the last six decades. He has put on 97 plays at the Semafor theatre and has written the lyrics for 1,400 songs and the music for 500. Today, in an era beset by an onslaught of images that are often of questionable worth, this legendary figure’s tireless efforts to enrich the Czech language and its poetic nuances have been of inestimable value. Olga Sommerová lays before us Suchý’s prolific creative and civic journey through life with the subtle distinctiveness we have come to expect; she also demonstrates her singular flair for capturing exceptional moments.

Karel Gott's concert is undoubtedly part of the Christmas tradition on Czech Television. The broadcast recording took place, as usual, at Lucerna in Prague on December 8 and 9 as part of the "Christmas Concerts – Karel Gott 1996" tour. Songs from the album "Zázrak vánoční" (Christmas Miracle) and the CD "Belcanto" were performed, as well as the ever-popular older hits and lovely guests invited by K. Gott to his program – Marta Kubišová, Petra Janů, Ilona Csáková, and Leona Machálková. The performances were accompanied by two orchestras – Karel Gott's Orchestra, conducted by M. Talián, and the Czech Christmas Symphony Orchestra, conducted by F. Preisler. And what would Christmas be without Christmas songs and carols? Of course, Karel Gott did not forget about them either. They will be the traditional highlight of the entire program, which will certainly contribute to the Christmas atmosphere in your home.

The television program *Svátek melodií* (Holiday of Melodies) marked the 30th anniversary of Pragokoncert, the former Czechoslovak arts agency established in 1948, which represented socialist-era artists for both domestic and international stages. The concert is hosted by actress Hana Maciuchová and Tomáš Sedláček. Leading pop stars of the late 1970s perform a selection of songs, including such once-famous hits as "Co takhle dát si špenát," "Kolotoč," "Klaudie," "Snad jsem se ti zdál," "Do re mi la," "Song se má hrát," "Motorest," "Hrajte starý rokenrol," "Chanson d’amour," "Malovaný džbánku," "Jsem tvá," and "Tentokrát se budu smát já."

The Haszler songs of Prague, so popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, have not aged. They are still sung in pubs and on construction sites, in short, everywhere. They also have their place in the love stories from old Prague, so beautifully told by Miss Veronika. Their heroine is Miss Stázi, who at first had no luck in love with the student Tadeáš. But then she fell in love with three gentlemen at once. The shy Mr. Alois, the cheerful Mr. France and Mr. Johannes, who seduced her behind the Horse Gate. But in the end she preferred the old but rich landlord. Three abandoned gentlemen nearly took their own lives under the Stone Bridge. But grief overcame them and the gentlemen settled down to marriages richly blessed with adorable children. And Miss Stasi? She ran away from the old man and returned to Mr. Franco when he came home from the army.

Disco was a pop music program that aired in Germany on the ZDF network from 1971 to 1982. It generally aired on the first Saturday of each month at 7:30PM, each show running 45 minutes. 133 shows were produced. The show was hosted by German actor and comedian Ilja Richter. Its lesser known predecessor on ZDF, 4-3-2-1 Hot & Sweet was aired between 1966 and 1970, presenters included Ilja Richter and Suzanne Doucet. Disco generally served a younger pop-oriented audience compared to ZDF's Hitparade, and until 1972, its main competitor was Beat-Club, followed by Musikladen, both on ARD. Repeats of Disco have been aired since 1984 on ZDF Musikkanal, after its closedown in 1989 on 3sat. Since 2004, the digital ZDF Theaterkanal aired repeats of the entire series. In 2007, ZDF Dokukanal began to air reruns, starting with episodes from 1975 and also multiple repeats of the series have been shown on hit24 in 2008. The show focussed on chart hits current at the time of airing, giving about equal airtime to international pop music and German Schlager. Despite its name, it did not particularly focus on disco music although it featured many disco hits as long as they were chart relevant..

Aside from the live television broadcasts it also tours in Austria and Germany as live concerts.

However Musikantenstadl consists of a large ski lodge Set construction and not a Social Club.
