He mentions 10 sec. No midi file is 10 sec., they are much longer. Here is what Charles said: o: Christy Sheffield Sanford >from: charles324@hotmail.com >Subject: etc. > >Charles, are you in town? -- Nope, see below >Ninguem vai tirar voce de mim >Do you know who the composer was? -- Cant say I do >Cavalgada by R. Carlos/E. Carlos -- This is the BIG romantic duo and watch their rights closely >Nao deixe o samba morrer by Edson_Aloisio -- You could likely get a freebee >I am trying to find out if I have to pay copyright privileges for a CD that will be published by a non-profit small press, The Little Magazine, in Albany, NY. -- They would NEVER come after you, they would never even know about it. Especially if it is in the context of essay you can "fair use" a quote of several lines or up to 10 seconds of sound. There are five midi files the above plus Tico Tico and >Concerto d'Aranjuez. -- Tico Tico is likely past 50 yrs in Brazil but it has a US copyright from the 40s. Charles A. Perrone -- in NOLA, Spring 99 --
