Academy Award untuk Skor Asli Terbaik

**Academy Award untuk Skor Asli Terbaik**, atau **Skor Musik Orisinal Terbaik**, adalah penghargaan yang diberikan setiap tahun oleh Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) ke penata musik yang menciptakan skor musik (yang substansial dalam bentuk penggaris bawah dramatis) yang khusus ditulis untuk film tersebut. Meski beberapa musik yang sudah ada sebelumnya diperbolehkan, tetapi film yang ikut serta harus menyertakan minimal musik asli. Minimum ini sejak 2021 ditetapkan sebesar 35% dari musik, yang dinaikkan menjadi 80% untuk sekuel dan film waralaba (film franchise). Lima belas skor disaring dalam daftar pendek sebelum nominasi diumumkan.

## Sejarah
Akademi mulai memberikan penghargaan kepada film berdasarkan skor musiknya pada tahun 1935. Kategori tersebut awalnya disebut **Skor Terbaik**. Pada saat itu, para pemenang dan nomine merupakan gabungan dari karya musik orisinal dan adaptasi dari materi yang sudah ada sebelumnya. Menyusul kemenangan kontroversial Charles Previn atas *[[One Hundred Men and a Girl]]* pada tahun 1938, Untuk film tanpa komposer yang tercantum namanya dan menampilkan musik klasik yang sudah ada sebelumnya, Akademi menambahkan kategori **Skor Asli Terbaik** pada tahun 1939. Pada tahun 1942, perbedaan antara kedua kategori penilaian tersebut sedikit berubah karena namanya diubah menjadi **Skor Terbaik untuk Film Drama** dan **Skor Terbaik untuk Film Musikal**. Ini menandai pertama kalinya kategori tersebut dipisahkan menjadi genre-genre yang berbeda. Dari 1942 hingga 1985, skor musik memiliki kategori tersendiri, kecuali untuk tahun 1958, 1981, dan 1982. Selama periode tersebut, kedua kategori tersebut mengalami banyak perubahan nama:

;1. Skor non-musikal
* Skor Terbaik untuk Film Drama (1942)
* Skor Terbaik untuk Film Drama atau Komedi (1943–1962)
* Skor Musik Terbaik—sangat orisinal (1963–1966)
* Skor Musik Asli Terbaik (1967–1968)
* Musik Orisinal Terbaik—untuk film [bukan musikal] (1969–1970)
* Skor Asli Terbaik (1971, 1976–1995, 2000–sekarang)
* Skor Dramatis Orisinal Terbaik (1972–1975, 1996–1999)

;2. Skor musikal
* Skor Terbaik untuk Film Musikal (1942–1962)
* Skor Musik Terbaik—adaptasi atau penggarapan (1963–1968)
* Skor Terbaik untuk Film Musikal—asli atau adaptasi (1969–1970)
* Skor Lagu Asli Terbaik (1971)
* Skor Terbaik: Adaptasi dan Lagu Orisinal Terbaik (1972–1973)
* Penilaian Terbaik: Musik Lagu Asli dan Adaptasi -atau- Penilaian: Adaptasi (1974–1976)
* Lagu Orisinal Terbaik dan Adaptasinya atau Skor Adaptasi (1977–1978)
* Skor Adaptasi Terbaik (1979)
* Skor Lagu Asli Terbaik dan Adaptasinya -atau- Skor Adaptasi (1980, 1983)
* Penghargaan Lagu Orisinal Terbaik atau Penghargaan Adaptasi Terbaik (1984)
* Skor Lagu Orisinal Terbaik (1985)
* Musik Orisinal Terbaik untuk Musikal atau Komedi (1996–1999)

Menyusul kemenangan empat film Walt Disney Feature Animation dalam enam tahun dari tahun 1990 hingga 1995 (*[[The Little Mermaid (film 1989)|The Little Mermaid]]*, *[[Beauty and the Beast (film 1991)|Beauty and the Beast]]*, *[[Aladdin (film 1992)|Aladdin]]*, dan *[[The Lion King]]*) selama periode yang disebut Kebangkitan Disney, diputuskan untuk sekali lagi membagi kategori Musik Orisinal Terbaik berdasarkan genre, kali ini dengan menggabungkan komedi dan musikal. Seperti yang dikatakan Alan Bergman, ketua cabang musik Akademi, "Orang-orang memilih lagu-lagunya, bukan musik pengiringnya. Kami merasa bahwa anggota Akademi di luar cabang musik tidak membedakan antara keduanya. Jadi ketika skor seperti *The Lion King* bersaing dengan drama seperti *[[Forrest Gump]],* seperti membandingkan apel dan jeruk – bukan dalam hal kualitas musiknya, tetapi dalam cara fungsinya di dalam film. Ada perbedaan besar." Oleh karena itu, kategori tersebut dibagi menjadi **Musik Dramatis Orisinal Terbaik** dan **Musik Orisinal Terbaik untuk Musikal atau Komedi** pada tahun 1996. Perubahan ini terbukti tidak populer di cabang-cabang Akademi lainnya karena Charles Bernstein, ketua komite peraturan Akademi, mencatat bahwa "tidak ada kategori Oscar lain yang bergantung pada genre film" dan "pekerjaan menggubah musik latar untuk komedi romantis tidak jauh berbeda dengan mengerjakan musik latar untuk drama yang serius." Pembagian ini berakhir pada tahun 2000.

Pada tahun 2020, Aturan diubah untuk mensyaratkan bahwa musik latar film harus mencakup minimal 60% musik orisinal. Film waralaba dan sekuel harus menyertakan minimal 80% musik baru. Pada tahun 2021, aturan tersebut diubah lagi, menurunkan persentase minimum musik orisinal dari 60% menjadi 35% dari total musik dalam film.
## Academy Award untuk Musikal Asli Terbaik
**Academy Award untuk Musikal Asli Terbaik** adalah kategori yang didirikan kembali pada tahun 2000 setelah kategori Musik Orisinal Terbaik untuk Musikal atau Komedi dihentikan. Penghargaan ini belum pernah diberikan dalam bentuknya saat ini karena kurangnya film yang memenuhi persyaratan kelayakan yang memadai dalam jangka waktu yang lama. Komite Eksekutif Cabang Musik Akademi memutuskan apakah terdapat cukup banyak karya berkualitas yang diajukan untuk membenarkan pengaktifannya.

Sesuai aturan, Musikal Orisinal Terbaik didefinisikan sebagai berikut: 

## Pemenang dan Nominasi
Berikut ini adalah daftar komposer yang dinominasikan, disusun berdasarkan tahun, dan mencantumkan film serta komposernya. Tahun yang tertera dalam daftar pemenang berikut adalah tahun produksi, jadi referensi ke tahun 1967 berarti Oscar yang diberikan pada tahun 1968 untuk film-film yang dirilis pada tahun 1967.
