Josef Zíma

Josef Zíma was a beloved Czech singer and actor whose warm voice and charming stage presence made him a household name in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s-1980s. Primarily known for his pop and folk-inspired tunes, he became synonymous with catchy melodies like "Toulej se, dívej se" and "Princové v důchodu," often collaborating with orchestras like Karel Vlach's ensemble. His career beautifully bridged traditional dechovka (Czech brass music) and modern pop, earning him generations of fans.

Beyond music, Zíma shone as an actor in films, TV shows, and theater productions, bringing his signature charisma to comedic and dramatic roles alike. His discography – including nostalgic collections like "Na Vlachovce" and "Zelené Háje" – preserves his legacy as a versatile entertainer who soundtracked countless Czech lives with his timeless, feel-good artistry.
