Obtaining a Permit for Public Performance

To assure that you are not violating copyright by playing a specific piece of music in the classroom, you can obtain permission from the publisher to use it. For details on this, check with the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP) in New York City at 212-621-6000. Or for answers to frequently asked questions about licensing consult their website: http://www.ascap.com.

Playing copyrighted music in a classroom or training seminar constitutes a public performance of the work, requiring that you obtain permission from the owner of the music or his or her representative. There are a couple of exceptions. According to ASCAP, permission is not required for music played or sung as part of a worship service, provided that service is not broadcast by radio or television. Neither is permission required if the performance is part of a face-to-face teaching activity at a nonprofit educational institution.

ASCAP has hundreds of different licensing arrangements covering a wide variety of situations. Not all of them are costly or financially prohibitive. Ask an ASCAP representative to propose a licensing agreement that fits your unique situation and see what happens.

When visiting the ASCAP Web site, you can check out ACE (ASCAP Clearance Express) which contains a searchable database of information on musical compositions, writers, publishers, and recording artists.

Other organizations around the world that could advise you include:

United Kingdom: Performing Rights Society Ltd.
South Africa: South African Music Rights Organization Ltd.
Hong Kong: The Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong Ltd.
Australia: Australian Performing Rights Association

 

Sources of Classroom Music

LifeSounds (1-888-687-4251, music@flite.net) offers high-quality classical and contemporary music that is sold with rights for public performance in a classroom at no additional fee.

In addition, you can contact the following organizations directly. All of these organizations, together with LifeSounds, have been associated with the Accelerated Learning movement in the U.S. for years. When you call for their catalogs, explain your situation and ask about their policy regarding public performance of their music tapes and CDs.

Accelerated Learning Systems (GA), 404-446-3852
Barzak Educational Institute (CA), 415-898-0013
The LIND Institute (CA), 800-462-3766 or 415-864-3396
The Mozart Effect Resource Center (CO), 800-721-2177
Steven Halpern’s Inner Peace Music (CA), 800-909-0707
Superlearning (NY), 212-279-8430

There are other organizations marketing royalty free music to the training community, but some of it is often shallow, trite, and of low quality according to people musically trained. But don’t give up on this avenue. You might be able to find pieces here and there of sufficient quality and appropriateness to work for you.


Music Videos

High quality videos of relaxing nature scenes with music backgrounds can be used for breaks and to accompany some learning activities. Excellent award-winning videos like Natural States, Desert Visions, and Canyon Dreams can be obtained from The Entertainer at 800-609-6111. When you call for a catalog, be sure to ask about their policy regarding classroom use.

MOVIE CLIPS

According to the Federal Copyright Act (Public Law 94-553, Title 17), videocassette clips of copyrighted movies may not be shown publicly without a licence from the copyright owner. This applies equally to for-profit and not-for-profit organizations (including schools). For more information about this, check the Web site of the Motion Picture Licensing Corporation (www.mplc.com/index2.htm). Or you can call them in Los Angeles at (800) 462-8855 to make arrangements for licensing the movies or movie clips you would like to use as part of a training or educational program.


Training Supplies Catalogs

Occasionally a training design might call for party favors, materials to embellish a theme, or special decorations. If that’s the case, here are some organizations that might help you find what you need. Just call for their free catalogs.
