BMI Congratulates Ludwig Göransson on his Oscar Win for “Oppenheimer”
It was another evening of triumph for BMI composer Ludwig Göransson who, after already collecting the BAFTA and Golden Globe awards for his work on the same film, accepted the industry’s highest honor, the Academy Award for Best Score for Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. The sprawling atomic biopic went on to receive six more awards, making it the clear winner of the evening.
It was also a memorable night beyond the highly anticipated accolades. BMI songwriter Scott George and the Osage Singers delivered a powerful performance of the Oscar-nominated “Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)” from Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, while BMI songwriters Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt flanked actor Ryan Gosling* on a rousing rendition (that also featured rockers Slash* and Woflgang Van Halen*) of “I’m Just Ken,” their Best Song-nominated track from Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, which brought Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre to its feet.
Congratulations to all!
