Jonny Greenwood, who is Oscar-nominated for best original score for One Battle After Another, is also vying for film score of the year at the 2026 ASCAP Composers’ Choice Awards. The winners are chosen by the ASCAP composer community.

In TV categories, Brandon Roberts (Andor) and Cristobal Tapia de Veer (The White Lotus), both of whom were nominated at the Creative Arts Emmys last September, are also competing here.

The Composers Choice Award previously known as Documentary Score of the Year has been divided into two categories – Documentary Film Score of the Year and Documentary Series Score of the Year.

The nominations panel includes both composers and film, television and video game industry leaders. Voting is open to eligible ASCAP writer members through March 6 at 11:59 p.m. ET at www.ascap.com/composerschoice.
