Disney and Pixar's Soul, which follows a jazz musician in the ether as he attempts to return to Earth for the gig of a lifetime, won Best Original Score at the 2021 Oscars.

The film was directed by Pete Docter and Kemp Powers and featured music by Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross and Jon Batiste, with consultation by Herbie Hancock, Terri Lyne Carrington and other jazz luminaries.

Batiste delivered a heartfelt speech about the power of music as it relates to the Divine—and how the same 12 notes are shared by nearly all artists throughout millennia.
