WHAT IS COPYRIGHT?
• Copyright is a form of protection grounded in the U.S. Constitution; Article 1, Section 8 empowers Congress to “Promote the Progress of Science and Useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries”.
• Copyright protection is provided for by law (title 17, US Code). It applies to original works of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression. Both published and unpublished works are protected.
• Copyright law was originally intended to provide a short term “monopoly” for authors for the purpose of encouraging creativity (14 years plus 14 years renewable).
• Our current copyright law confers upon copyright holders certain exclusive rights.

COPYRIGHT AND MUSIC
![Page 11: COPYRIGHT BASICS LIBRARY WORKSHOP SPRING 2012 Linda Sharp Marsha Stevenson.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d985503460f94a83361/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Copyright law as it pertains to music is both simple and complex. It is simple because
• the eligibility standard for copyright protection is the same for music as for other creative works, i.e., "…original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression."
• a songwriter/composer receives the same bundle of exclusive rights as creators of other original works, which is the right to reproduce, distribute, create derivative works, perform publicly, and display their work publicly.
• duration of copyright protection for original musical compositions is also standard.

It is complex because
• Multiple copyrights“I Will Always Love You”
• Multiple formats and usesSheet music, CD, mp3; Soundtrack, Live Public Performance, Digital Audio Transmission
• Different permissions and licensing for different formats and uses
• Stakes are high; money is big

WORK-FOR-HIRE DOCTRINE
Employers are considered copyright owners of works created by their employees within the scope of their employment
Independent contractors’ status is less clear
Should be a written contract specifying who owns copyright
