International Film Music Critics Association Award for Best Original Score for Television
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Film Music Critics Association Award for Best Original Score for Television is an annual award given by the International Film Music Critics Association (IFMCA). Established in 2004, the award is given to the composer of a television score based on two criteria: "the effectiveness, appropriateness and emotional impact of the score in the context of the film for which it was written; and the technical and intellectual merit of the composition when heard as a standalone listening experience."[1] The awarding period runs January 1 through December 31 every year, and IFMCA members vote for the winner the following February.
