Václav Neckář

For more than 50 years, actor and singer Václav Neckář has been captivating and entertaining radio listeners with his voice. This past weekend, just two days shy of his 80th birthday, Neckář was inducted into the prestigious Czech Radio Hall of Fame. The singer is the second recipient of this award in the field of music.

Perhaps best-known for his role of Jiří Hrma in the Oscar-winning film Closely Watched Trains by Jiří Menzel, Neckář enjoyed his biggest popularity as a singer in the 1960s and 1970s as part of the Golden Kids trio, and on our Sunday Music Show today, you can listen to some of his biggest hits.
