About

Petr Hapka (1944-2014) was a Czech composer, singer and conductor whose name appears in the credits of over a hundred films and TV series, making him one of the most prolific figures in Czech film music. His lasting fame rests above all on his partnership with lyricist Michal Horáček, whose chansons and pop songs were performed by Hana Hegerová, Lucie Bílá, Richard Müller and Michal Kocáb, among others. Born Petr Josef Lehár, he studied viola, singing and drama at the Prague Conservatory under Oldřich Nový.
