PERFORMANCE+OF+SOUND+RECORDINGS


 * There is an exception for non-instructional performance of sound recordings in school under section 110(4). **

**There are 4 factors: **


 * **Performance may not be made by transmission **
 * **Performance must be for non profit. **
 * **No one associated may receive compensation. (including a DJ) **
 * **Direct or indirect admission charges go directly for educational purposes. **

**Beware: Copyright owners may have given an advance blanket objection that you may not perform their works under any circumstances. Performing rights societies may also do the same. **

**The technique of sampling is dangerous. Student work only within the classroom is usually OK. You need permission from music ****publishers if you’re sampling recorded music, voices, or environmental sounds. The safest thing is to use your own. ** = ** The Electronic Frontier Foundation is a good resource. ** =
