About

Yuri Tománek works as a composer for TV and films, known best for his work creating the original score for the Netflix documentaries Last Chance U, Cheer and Last Chance U: Basketball.

His work on Cheer was considered for an Emmy award in 2020.

As a classically trained pianist, his work is often described as piano-based minimalism.

"An evoking mix of classical piano and nostalgic atmospheres."
"The Ground Before Him is a down-tempo ambient track shrouded in melancholy and loneliness, sounding like the world as half-heard from within the head of someone occupied by their own business."
Jon Doyle, Various Small Flames
"Tománek’s classical training shows through in the subtle nuances that create the striking and spacious soundscapes. New EP In the End is the perfect illustration of this, a lesson in the power of restraint and delicate care."
Jon Doyle, Various Small Flames
A minimalist composition with gentle swells of piano and ambience, rolling together to form a softly textured space. Captivating and haunting all at once.
