Disgusting relations with the late Karl Gott. Ivan’s widow is furious

After Karel Gott’s death, several books about the legendary singer appeared on the market, but one of them really aroused Ivana Gottová’s bile. It is a sheet music book with the hits of the eternal nightingale, published in Germany. It violates copyright and dishonors the memory of the Master.

It’s been three years since Gott’s death recently, but instead of calmly remembering her beloved husband, widow Ivana has a lot to worry about. She was shocked by a German music label Donatedwho published scores for the Maestro’s popular compositions entitled Erinnerungen (translated as Memories).

On the title page is a failed portrait of Karel Gott and a strangely drawn signature above it. “Who would not recognize the opening song of the Včelka Maja series. Lukas Bruckmeyer has arranged four of Karel Gott’s greatest hits for brass bands,“reads the trailer for the score book. The company charges 60 euros, which translates into almost 1,500 crowns.

In addition to Včelka Maja, these are other German compositions Einmal um die ganze Welt (Once Around the World), Fang das Licht (The Bells of Happiness) and Grandma (alle Kinder liebten Babicka, i.e. All children adored their grandmother).

The problem is that the publisher is infringing on copyright. “The asset managers (Karel Gott agency, represented by Ivana Gottová, ed.) Are already resolving the situation with the music publishing house. I hope they can find an agreement“ he told the portal aha.cz Former German coach of Gott Wolfgang Kaminski.

The Karel Gott agency holds the rights to all the works of the legendary singer. And his signature is, according to the closed succession procedure, in the hands of the director of the agency Ivana Gottová and his daughters Charlotte and Nelly.

Lucky bells in heaven. Charlotte sent Gott a heartwarming Father’s Day gift (6/2022):
