History

Since the 5th Golden Globe Awards (1947), the award is presented annually, except from 1953 to 1958. The nominations from 1947 and 1948 are not available.{{cite web|url=http://www.hfpa.org/browse/year/1947 |title=The 5th Annual Golden Globe Awards (1948) |access-date=2007-06-26 |publisher=Hollywood Foreign Press Association |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070607223818/http://www1.hfpa.org/browse/year/1947 |archive-date=2007-06-07 }} Nominations for 1947 are not available.{{cite web|url=http://www.hfpa.org/browse/year/1948 |title=The 6th Annual Golden Globe Awards (1949) |access-date=2007-06-26 |publisher=Hollywood Foreign Press Association |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070608000234/http://www1.hfpa.org/browse/year/1948 |archive-date=2007-06-08 }} Nominations for 1948 are not available. The first Best Original Score award went to Max Steiner for his compositional work on Life with Father.

John Williams is the artist with the most nominations (24); those resulted in 4 wins. Dimitri Tiomkin had the same number of wins, but out of only 5 nominations. Other notable achievers include Maurice Jarre (10 nominations, 4 wins), Alan Menken (5 nominations, 3 wins), Hans Zimmer (15 nominations, 3 wins), Justin Hurwitz (3 nominations, 3 wins) and Alexandre Desplat (11 nominations, 2 wins).

Artists like Jerry Goldsmith (9 nominations) and Michel Legrand (7 nominations) were nominated several times but never received the award. Dimitri Tiomkin, Alan Menken and Howard Shore are the only composers to win two consecutive awards. Additionally, Dimitri Tiomkin received Special Achievement Awards for his services to film music in 1955 and 1957, as did Hugo Friedhofer in 1958. The most recent recipient of this award was Ludwig Göransson for the film Oppenheimer.
