Holst Bring us in Good Ale - copyright...????
Posted: 20 Oct 2020 12:30
Hi
I am just a little confused about the CPDL license. I have downloaded the CPDL copyrighted version of Holst's 'Bring us in Good Ale'. I am wondering if it is free to photocopy for my high school choir....?
Having read through the CPDL license info on the webpage, I am confused about the fact it says the Public Domain License applies to many of the works distributed by the CPDL . It also says that the work will contain 'a notice placed by the copyright holder ( in this case CPDL) saying it may be distributed under the terms of the CPDL License'.
The copy of the Holst piece Bring us in Good Ale doesn't contain any information or wording on the score to say that it MAY be distributed. It has the Copyright CPLD sign, the title of the work, the composer , no arranger's name....and that's it - no 'notice' or info on reproduction. How do I know if this work has a 'notice' on it? Would it be clearly written on the score, something to the effect of ...."this work may be reproduced or photocopied freely..." or something similar??
Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
