Anyone considering
purchasing sheet music, photocopying it and then returning it to
us as a cancelled order should be aware that this would be a Criminal
Act.
Copyright enables composers and authors to be paid for their work.
Copyright is the means by which those who make and own creative
works (e.g. music and literature) can control who makes use of
their work and the circumstances in which it is used, to ensure
that the integrity and value of the work is respected.
Copyright legislation has evolved over the last 500 years to provide
a balance between the interests of those who invest skills and
intellectual effort, time and money in the creation of works on
the one hand and those who want to use and enjoy those works on
the other.
The current UK copyright legislation is to be found principally
in the Copyright,
Designs and Patents Act 1988. |
