Canturbury Tales

Music Business Question 1. The music publishing industry at a glance would seem to be those who print sheet music, method books, lead sheets, and all of the texts or notated music that musicians (and those aspiring to be musicians) use. Years ago, this was what most music publishers did, but as the industry has evolved the process that become much more complex. Music is not just ink and paper, intellectual material and property to the individual who writes it. Therefore the song does not become "a song" when it is written down. This is not an easy concept to grasp because the song by itself has no physical makeup. A song could exist once it is played for the first time, and songs can even exist inside the mind of a songwriter. This concept is why the publishing business can be so complex; we are dealing with intellectual property. The heart of the music publishing business lies in the rights to the original music. After the music is successful enough to financially support itself the music is printed in mass quantities in a variety of ways. This could be everything from guitar tabs to choral arrangements for a junior high choir. The publisher's main source of income is through record royalties, performance royalties received from


A compulsory license or negotiated license is issued by the Copyright office for secondary transmissions use. This clause may reduce the royalty split to 75-25, the larger portion going to the record label. An accountant usually handles the royalty department, which is money received from performances of the copyrighted music. The nature of the copyrighted work 3. ASAP, BMI, and SESAC handle the payment of these royalties. The AGVA will negotiate with the venues of its performers. The A & R representative may attend a major event by an artist to see them perform and evaluate whether they would be profitable for the firm. When money is received from or paid to customers the firm the accounting divisions keeps all the financial records of these kinds of operations. Most symphonies are made up from union players. The success of the song is based on how high up on the chart it is. Thus, the employer owns the rights to the work. If the music is composed specially for a commercial the composer can grant a buyout deal giving the advertiser unlimited usage of the music. In this subject we also include the fair use of copyrighted material. The administration division is the division that handles the operations of the firm.
