Ojos verdes

The longing and critical review of the copla is lived through the history of the marqués de Almodóvar, a passionate ambassador who organized Franco's folkloric festivals; generous, womanizer, excessive, wasteful, himself the protagonist of his own copla. In love in his youth with a Concha Piquer chorus girl, he dedicated his life to collecting fetishes and memories of all the cante divas with which to organize a sentimental museum in his decaying castle, filling it with showcases where he could store his longings. When he died, destitute, in the pension of his last mistress, also a cupletist, she disputes her legacy with the housekeeper who took care of him and her picturesque collections all her life. family castle. A dear diplomatic friend recalls his fanciful existence emotionally. An aesthetic that is part of the feeling of the Andalusian people. And as a common thread "Ojos Verdes", the most beautiful song of songs of his rich songbook.

He has promised his sister-in-law as payment to the giant construction workers led by Fafner, but his wife Fricka disapproves.

S úsměvem idiota

The play S úsměvem idiota (With the Smile of an Idiot) by the duo Vodňanský-Skoumal was composed for the Činoherní klub theater and premiered on May 19, 1969. It was performed with great success until 1973, when administrative measures prevented the duo V+S from performing. The play was never recorded in its entirety. This was only achieved thirty years later, when the duo returned to the Činoherní klub with the play S úsměvem idiota. The recording is a selection of the best works by the successful songwriting duo. We remember the songs "Aristocrat," "Marshals," "At the Opera in La Scala," "Grizzly," and others, as well as their original style of humor, on the sad occasion of the death of composer, pianist, and occasional lyricist Petr Skoumal.
