NOTE FROM DC:
The Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics, while awarded solely to the writers, do in fact honor the Arranger(s), Orchestrator(s), and Music Producer(s) with a certificate of recognition. The Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography does not recognize anyone on the Music team, but is no less reliant on our contributions, so I include those nominations here. The Emmy for Outstanding Music Direction is currently awarded only for live television events, so Schmigadoon!, for example, was not eligible.
Also, the term “Music Director” cannot officially be used on non-live TV and Film projects due to insecurity on the part of the Director’s Guild of America and their concern that the viewer will be confused by the term “Music Director”. Silly people. Hollywood survived for decades using the term “Music Director” and no one was confused. There is currently no universally accepted and allowable term for what is clearly the position of “Music Director”, which has led to a plethora of terms in use in the industry, none of which are fully accurate.
