You're Possesions Will Now Become Public Domain (Dada II, iv)

Another light blogging day (you've had quite a bit to read over the past week)....

Today's assignment: Find music in the public domain. Remember, the current copyright law, with the Sonny Bono Copyright extension, allows creators Their entire life, plus 70 years, to control what the public sees of their work. That means anybody who died before 1936 is definitely fair game (It becomes a bit confusing during the 1920's because some copyrighted material went into the public domain 50 years after the creator died. If material was still protected at the time of the extension, it was added as well. To be safe, let's just look at those who are defintes)

This year currently includes Aleksandr Glazunov (29-Jul-1865 to 21-Mar-1936) and very soon Ottorino Respighi (9-Jul-1879 to 18-Apr-1936)

Happy Hunting!
