Recordist's notes

The recording is from the house, where originally lived tailor and adventurer Adolf Zelený (since start of 20th century). Now, the house belong the family Pfann, because this family - especially Květoslava Pfannová and his husband Jaroslav - helped this man in the last decades and in the end of his life (in 1988), they care of him. Family Pfann lived in the house next door, and the head of family, Jaroslav, was a evangelic pastor in this village. Because Adolf Zelený, this peculiar, strange, but really good man, had no more children, wife or siblings, he hand over his small house to the Pfann family. Květoslava Pfannová was last of four children of the Antonín and Anna Balabán. Antonín was born in village Křídla, 15 km from village Sněžné. But because hwe was a evangelic pastor too, he was moving a lot of times in his life, and Květoslava was born in village Boratín (today on Ukraine), where this family lived 15 years, before the second world war.
