She is an outstanding singer of the golden generation of Albanian music of the 70s and 80s. Liljana Kondakçi, for 22 years in a row, Liljana would be one of the most popular singers of light music, leaving a name in the very original way of performing popular songs.
Today, she celebrates her 73rd birthday. But Liljana is as young as when she first appeared on the screen, when she sang at the Song Festival.
The prominent singer of the golden age of the 70s-80s, had not been present on the stages of Albanian festivals since the distant year 1988, at the age of 36. Since then she has had only a few sporadic appearances on the screen to awaken the nostalgia of the generations that had made them dream not only of her voice but also of her incredibly sensual charm. Since then, she had withdrawn into her private life and was only referred to as 'was'.
Liljana, however, appeared from time to time exactly where she had never missed the rigid judgment of a conservative society, like the Albanian society of those years. As was often the case with rare art VIPs of the time, her private life was always a subject of interest. An interest that was always in direct proportion to the fame of the 'marked', but that rarely had anything to do with the truth.
She was only 14 years old, when the girl with long black hair, a very sensual portrait, but wearing only a basmi dress, would go on stage at the most important festival of the time, that of the end of the year on radio and television. It was 1967, the fifth festival and she attracted attention with a song sung 'live', composed by Ferdinand Deda. "The village with lights will flourish", despite having a schematic text, typical of the time, quickly turned into a motif whistled by the youth, while the young singer would thus mark the start of an uninterrupted participation in all subsequent festivals.
For 22 years in a row, Liljana would be one of the most popular singers of light music, leaving a name in the very original way of interpreting popular songs. During this entire period, Liliana was employed in Tirana's Estrada as a singer and for a shorter period of time, she also worked in Albanian radio and television as a music editor.
