Hi Dean,

Some of my pieces are published via Really Good Music, the rest I self- publish.

But that's got nothing to do with live performance royalties from BMI or ASCAP!

Cheers,

Darcy ... I'm just curious ... have you published any pieces, and if so, have any been bought? If so, I assume you have received, or will receive your 10 or whatever percent of said sales.

Hi Terry,

If I were a classical composer, I would (theoretically) get BMI or ASCAP royalties on all live performances. Because I'm a jazz composer, I get nada -- at least, for US performances.

What's especially galling is that venues like the Jazz Gallery still have to pay for BMI and ASCAP licenses, even though *none* of that money actually goes to the composers whose work is actually presented there.

Cheers,

I'm not much up on this subject
but if you own it and it is published by you
you get royalities on any performance correct?
May not be big bucks though.
You could write up the document for one time performance yourself
it would be very straight forward
Terry
