The Screen Composers Association (SCA) was a Hollywood film composers organization that first met in 1945, though its roots extend back to 1942. The group sought to form a guild as well as increase royalty payments from performing rights societies. The association's strongest years were from 1945 to 1959 before membership began to wane. There was some resurgence of activity in the early seventies but the organization never recaptured its earlier energy.
