PRAGUE The fullest sound set about the popular Liberation Theater of Voskovec and Werich? Absolutely. The collection of recordings is available from the Superphon music publishing house.
When a set of 7 CDs from the recordings of the Osvobozen Theater was released in 2007, it was a big event. A number of unknowns appeared among the rarities, despite the fact that in the whole it was gathered what was preserved from the Liberated Theater 13 years ago.
Now this set is published, but supplemented by 25 hitherto unknown entries, songs and sketches, various duplicate recordings and rarities, which have been discovered since the release on classic CDs by collectors and experts Petr Prajzler, Gabriel Gssel and others.
In the three years of the last century, there was no other possibility of a lot of time, ie without the possibility of catching. In the studio, the coating was pulled into a disc made of relatively expensive wax material with the help of a needle engraved during the application. If there were any errors during the recording, it was not possible to fix it. This fact put demands on the game from the outside, but it still happened that some of the pictures did not succeed according to the ideas, Petr Prajzler reveals about duplicate recordings in the entire booklet.
These unused recordings were preserved due to the fact that each image had to be made of metal matrix after engraving in wax, and only after the sample samples were pressed could the performers listen to it and assess it. These test boards were given to the game (and, in our case, Jeek) as a presentation from the company, and the images, which were not intended for the press for gramophone records, were preserved, as well as where the recordings were taken.
The mistake is, for example, the late onset of the play during the song, a change in tempo, falsity, a drop in the text of the song, etc. Europe Vol, Pension or Life, City Lights, A tden flowed, Hot Fingers and jin. Other times it’s small things, like in a song You’ll be sorry I can’t spt with Jan Werich in the twists and turns of zakuck, Prajzler promises.
There are even 22 orchestral compositions and songs never released on the set. In addition, it is enriched with a data file containing a discography of recordings of the Liberated Theater from 19291938, with a detailed breakdown of recording frequencies and the cast of the orchestra.
