Although copyright laws forbid unauthorized copies, a little common sense would argue that the copying of a single part is hardly worth bringing expensive legal action. I like to mark my music, but knowing that, I carry, in my case, a special mechanical pencil with 0.9mm HB lead and silicon rubber, replaceable eraser that quickly removes the very legible marks with no smear. I can keep up with the conductor changing his mind. Some of the marking I do could be considered pretty stupid, so it's important to me to remove it before I pass it in. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Gross <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 'The Horn List' <horn@music.memphis.edu> Sent: Sun, 4 Dec 2005 09:03:24 -0600 Subject: RE: [Hornlist] Fingerings, accidentals & making music
Taking this off in a different direction, looking at the mechanics of setting up a community based music group. One of the problems I run across is following copyright laws. We do it. The down side is the transient nature of our membership. Some folks show up for a session then for various other reasons can't make the next. We end up not letting anyone take music home to practice because parts will start to disappear. I had suggested making copies of our limited library and letting people take them home. The copyright "smart people" were of the opinion that this would violate the copyright. Anyone else aware of this problem and come up with a good solution? _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/billbamberg%40aol.com _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
