Vocals,Violin prim:
I think I'm a folklorist body and soul. I like violin, dulcimer band, singing, socializing with other folklorists and especially Wallachian dances.
And so it's no wonder that with the girls we sweep out of the music, any folklore event from Ostrava to Rožnov p. R and we always have a good party :-)
And something about me? I spent 8 years at the Vilém Petrželka Elementary Art School, VŠB TUO - Sports Management. I danced inensembles - Bebek (Lachia), Šmykňa (Slovakia), Moravia (Wallachia).I am the head of FS Morava and I cooperate with DFS Holúbek.
Now I am on maternity leave and I teach in a children's mini-kindergartenin Štramberk.
I like to participate in folklore events or we organize them ourselves - Wallachian Ball, Burning of Midsummer Fires. Come and see us :-)
Vocals, viola, dulcimer:
Hana Herberková or from a dancer to a musician… in other words folkloreis my life :) It is in my roots – my great-grandfather František Vozár was the chapelmaster of Vlčnovjanka, then my father sang and played in Duo Mirků... and mainly it was Folklore Ensemble of Ladislav Ševčík where I got to know not only the dance, folksongs, customs but also an excellent dancer and my future husband Vladimir with whom we then led this ensemble for many years.
After the renaming it to FS MORAVA /1997/ I led the „kids“ by myself and my husband took care of the bands /ŠAJTAR, CM IRŠAVA/.
As time went by, my daughters grew up, and I started to think about th ebeautiful instrument viola which became my passion and dance went into the background.
Due to health reasons I handed over the leadership of the ensemble to Venda Trčková/Šutová/ in October 2018.
We, 3 girls-dancers from FS Morava /Venda, Iva and I/, got together and here was the beginning of our band which has grown over the years and now is known as CM VESELKY.
The name was created by a funny story..."oh, look peasant woman in folk costume"...so instead of www.selky we combined cheerful peasants – VESELKY.
I am very grateful that I could learn the viola in CM Iršava, where my younger daughter Veronika played the dulcimer. Before she died/2013/, I thought - what about learning the dulcimer also.
Verunka was a great teacher so at least, in those 4 months, she devoted herself to me and I learnt a lot from her... then she told me, "Mommy, you're going to be the only one playing."
So I practice, play and enjoy playing with both music bands, Iršava and Veselky.

Zuzka Preisolová was born in Ostrava. I played viola in CM of ZUŠ Leoš Janáček and later in CM Šmykňa.

Throughout this time he was connected with the organisation in the above-mentioned groups. The logical consequence of this was the position of organizational manager from 1986 in the Ladislav Ševčík Ensemble, he was also a dancer and a choreographer there, that all until he was 40.Meanwhile, in 1995 he founded the International Dulcimer Festival in Valašské Meziříčí, which was under the artistic direction of Prof. Růžena Děcká.
With the Ladislav Ševčík Ensemble, he realized hundreds of performances in the Czech Republic – Strážnice, Rožnov pod Radhoštěm etc. He has also arranged productions abroad: Japan, Canada, Russia, China, Poland, Slovakia, Belgium, France, Denmark, Portugal, Sardinia, Romania, Italy.
In 1997 he founded the band Šajtar with Martin Gelnar and presented it at hundreds of productions in the Czech Republic and abroad: Ireland, England, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Russia, Ukraine, China.
In 2003 he founded the band Iršava with Kateřina Bílá, which performed in the Czech Republic and abroad: Greece, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Slovakia, Switzerland, Poland, Ukraine, China.
