Golden Reel Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Editing – Musical for Feature Film


The Golden Reel Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Editing – Musical for Feature Film is an annual award given by the Motion Picture Sound Editors. It honors music editors whose work has warranted merit in the field of cinema; in this case, their work in musical feature films. It was first awarded in 1999, for films released the previous year, under the title Best Sound Editing – Music – Musical Feature . In 2002, the award dropped "Foreign & Domestic" from its title, going by Best Sound Editing – Music – Musical Feature Film. From this point, until 2017, that title would remain, or some simple variation of it. The award has been given with its current title since 2018.
