Iva Bittová's latest album, "What my father sang to me", is a deeply personal and emotive work that weaves together a unique blend of jazz, folk, classical, and rock influences. The album's starting point is the traditional songs that Iva learned from her father during her childhood, which she now reinterprets and presents as a gift to him.
Musically, the album is characterised by its eclectic mix of styles, with Iva's violin and vocals combining with the cello playing of Anıl Eraslan to create a rich and expressive sound. The songs are infused with the spirit of folk music settings by Leoš Janáček and Béla Bartók, while also drawing on Iva's memories of summers spent in the Slovakian countryside on the border with Hungary.
Featuring 12 tracks, including "Holub", "Sparkling future", and "Modry Kvietok", "What my father sang to me" is an album that showcases Iva Bittová's innovative and avant-garde approach to music. With its genre-bending sound and deeply personal themes, this album is sure to resonate with fans of experimental and free jazz. Released on 2 December 2024 via Pantopia Music, "What my father sang to me" is a must-listen for anyone looking to experience the cutting-edge of contemporary music.
