Csáková Ilona: It' s still me - CD

The album's title from one of the Czech Republic's most captivating voices is symbolic: fifteen songs, diverse in their essence, but attractively unified by the artist. It is a retrospective of Ilona's brilliant past, a confirmation of her interesting present, and a promising step into the future.

Mostly accompanied by the Golden Big Band Prague, conducted by Petr Sovič, you will experience a look back at Laura a její tygři (49 dní do jara with Martin Pošta). In new arrangements, you will surely enjoy revisiting Ilona's great hit era (Pink, Tornero, Malý vůz, Proč mě nikdo nemá rád or Když zbývá pár slov).
From recent years, there's a powerful television theme from the pen of Ondřej Brzobohatý (Žít, co to dá), the fitting new title track, and a classic hit in the form of a duet with Karel Gott (Pláč/Crying). A bonus is the brand-new track Abych byla IN, a modern dance number that comments on the pop scene with a sense of perspective.

Ilona Csáková is an extraordinary singer and a newly-discovered writer or co-writer, supported by a big band as well as her own small group. Her retrospective is undoubtedly high-quality and rightfully proud, and her look forward is commendable.
