Life story of Jaroslav Uhlir - I've been treading the world for a long time

According to Jaroslav Uhlíř, musical composers have their own god. Hitpánbíček (a pun on the Czech word for God and 'hit'). If this god really does exist, he must have taken an extraordinary liking to Jaroslav, blessing him with a talent for melody. Among his approximately six hundred songs, there are countless hits: Severnı́ vítr, Dělání, Není nutno, and the iconic Holubí dům. Although most of his songs were originally written for a children's audience, adults know and sing them without a hint of embarrassment.
This book features an extensive interview with the composer, in which we not only recall the circumstances surrounding the creation of his famous hits but also journey back to his childhood in Prague's Žižkov district. Many of his colleagues and friends also contribute their memories of working with this brilliant composer. And what kind of complete picture of Uhlíř would it be without Svěrák and Šíp!
