Hit-makers Hapka & Horacek release new pop/chanson CD "Strazce Plamene"
Even after all those years, since they began cooperating in the mid-1980s in communist Czechoslovakia, musician Petr Hapka and lyricist Michal Horacek remain one of the Czech Republic's most acclaimed artistic partnerships. Since the 80s they have collaborated on just a handful of albums, but produced some of the country's most well-known chansons and pop songs sung by some of the country's best singers. Hits like "Levandulova" - My Lavender One (Hana Hegerova), "Cizi zena v cizim pokoji" - Strange Woman in a Strange Room (rocker Michal Kocab) and the more recent "Divam se, divam" - I look and I see (sung by firecracker Lucie Bila and Hapka himself) propelled the duo to ever greater recognition and critical acclaim. Now they have released a new album: Strazce plamene.
