Copyright - or, the right to copy - should concern anyone who listens to, performs, or creates music of any kind - especially in this digital age. In this episode, the first of a two-part series with Dr. James Frankel, we discuss Frankel's new book, THE TEACHER'S GUIDE TO MUSIC, MEDIA, AND COPYRIGHT LAW (Hal Leonard). In our conversation, we touch on topics including a relevant history of copyright, the concepts of "fair use" and "public domain," and a few scenarios that give life to the law. (This interview took place February 25, 2009.)
