The Australasian Performing Right Association Awards of 1998 (generally known as APRA Awards) are a series of awards held in May 1998. The APRA Music Awards were presented by Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA) and the Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society (AMCOS).[1] The awards resumed in 1998 after a hiatus in 1997.[2]

Only one classical music award was available in 1998: Most Performed Contemporary Classical Composition.[3][4] APRA provided awards for "Best Television Theme", and "Best Film Score" in 1998.[5] APRA and AMCOS also sponsored the Australian Guild of Screen Composers (AGSC),[6] which provided their own awards ceremony, from 1996 to 2000, with categories for film and TV composers.[7]
