Ondřej Soukup (born 2 May 1951)[1] is a Czech musician and composer. He has written soundtracks for over twenty feature films, including Jan Svěrák's Kolya, an Academy Award-winner for best foreign film in 1997, and Dark Blue World, for which Soukup received his second Czech Lion award for best soundtrack, in 2001. He was also a jury member for the talent show Česko hledá SuperStar.[2]
Soukup graduated from the Prague Conservatory in 1975, then played bass in various jazz and pop bands, including Pražský výběr and Pavel Fořt's group Labyrint. In the early 1980s, Soukup began playing with Karel Gott and also composed and arranged music of his own. He later became a full-time composer and also produced records for other artists.
Soukup has also written pop music for various artists, often together with his ex-wife, lyricist Gabriela Osvaldová. The duo's first collaboration was the 1989 song "Miss Moscow", written for Jiří Korn.[3] They also worked with singer Lucie Bílá on her second studio album, 1992's Missariel, which went on to win five Anděl Awards.[4]
In 2000, Soukup wrote his first musical, Johanka z Arku, to which Gabriela Osvaldová penned the lyrics. In 2015, he composed music for the Russian ice show Masha and the Bear, based on the cartoon of the same name.[5]
Soukup has one son with Gabriela Osvaldová, composer František Soukup.[7] In 2017, he married Slovak singer Lucia Šoralová, with whom he has a son and a daughter.[7]
