INTRODUCING ROZÁLIE:
A MUSICAL ONE WOMAN SHOW
Rozálie is a multi-talented artist, who has captivated audiences with her unique blend of music and performance. As well as being a charismatic singer, accordionist, actress and dancer, Rozálie’s song-writing skills were recently recognized with a nomination for the prestigious Czech music award, Ceny Anděl, with her debut album Korzetiér. The Ceny Anděl is the most prestigious music award in the Czech Republic and recognizes outstanding achievements in the music industry.
The album showcases her exceptional vocal abilities with the supporting accompaniment of the accordion. The songs on the album are a fusion of various cultures, falling somewhere between folk and chanson, characterized by their poetic lyrics and sincerity. Rozálie draws from her own life experiences to create a distinct sound that sets her apart from other artists.
With her talent for anecdotal story-telling, Rozálie introduces and explains her songs with her uniquely raw candor and playful irony, laced with cynical romance. Her charming authenticity and vulnerability continues to attract a wide circle of supporters. The audience becomes part of the story, as they laugh, cry, and reflect.
Chanson, meaning “song” in French, emerged in the late 19th Century. It is often associated with the cabaret culture of Paris and is known for its intimate and expressive nature. Chansons typically feature simple melodies, allowing the focus to be on the lyrics and the singer’s interpretation.
The theater Rozálie calls “home” is Prague’s renowned Theatre La Fabrika, but her compelling show resonates with the most diverse audiences across the world. In a music industry dominated by manufactured and formulaic music, Rozálie’s compositions offer a refreshing change, with their honest portrayal of real-life with all its ups and downs. For this exclusive USA tour her programme draws upon French and Latin American classics from, amongst others, Edith Piaf and Chavela Vargas in their original language.
