- 1961: Ernest Gold, Exodus (drama or comedy); Morris Stoloff and Harry Sukman, Song Without End (musical) The Apartment was the big winner this year (and the last black-and-white Best Picture winner until Schindler's List in 1993), but Adolph Deutsch wasn't even nominated for Best Original Score.
- 1962: Henry Mancini, Breakfast at Tiffany's (drama or comedy); Saul Chaplin, Johnny Green, Sid Ramin, and Irwin Kostal, West Side Story (musical) It was a given that the team behind West Side Story’s film score would win in their category, though stage composer Leonard Bernstein didn't love the way his music sounded on screen, with an orchestra three times the size of his Broadway band.
- 1963: Maurice Jarre, Lawrence of Arabia (original); Ray Heindorf, The Music Man (adaptation or treatment) Maurice Jarre easily landed this year's drama/comedy score Oscar with his career-defining music for the grand Hollywood epic Lawrence of Arabia: one of the top three film scores of all time, if you believe the American Film Institute.
- 1964: John Addison, Tom Jones (original); André Previn, Irma la Douce (adaptation) The buzz at this year's Oscars surrounded the Best Supporting Actress category — where, for the only time ever, three of the five nominations went to performers from the same movie.
The Academy Award for Best Original Score is an award presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to the best substantial body of music in the form of dramatic underscoring written specifically for the film by the submitting composer. [1]
