Bittová Iva: Kolednice (Reedice 2018) - CD

Iva Bittová, a singer, actress, and violinist, is one of the most distinctive personalities on the Czech alternative music scene. She recorded the album Kolednice in 1995 in Lelekovice with her children's choir, Lelky.

The songs were chosen from the collections of Mr. Sušil and Mr. Seidel. Iva Bittová adapted and arranged the Christmas songs herself, with assistance during recording from Pavel Fajt, Pavel Koudelka, Dorothea Kellerová, Petr Keller, and Martin Opršál.

The recording was made by Pavel Fajt in the Church of St. James and St. Philip in Lelekovice. It was mixed at Studio V in Zlín by Ivo Viktorín and Petr Vavřík in August and September 1995. The album was unavailable for 20 years and is now being released in a paper digipack featuring the original artwork by Alois Mikulka.
