In the posting of these lead sheets, the composer does not relinquish her rights under current copyright law, but wishes to retain full protection.
The only permission granted for usage:
In posting of these lead sheets, permission is being granted only to local church musicians to use these lead sheets only for worship during regularly scheduled worship services in the church of which they regularly attend or are members. Permission is not granted for use in any other venue - concerts, special services, or recordings, nor any other venue where musicians would either minister or perform for free or receive a free-will offering, a wage, stipend, or any compensation of any kind for music provided.
No one has permission to perform or record these songs or reproduce them in any manner without explicit written permission from the composer (unless you are ministering in your own church during - for example, a Sunday morning or evening, or mid-week service as mentioned in the above condition).
To do so violates Lora Crombez' rights as the composer, and should violate the musician's conscience because he or she is not making the proper compensation to the ministry of "The 151st" and their ministry "Caring and Sharing." Every unpaid dollar denies food to the hungry [cared for by this ministry's food closet]. Permission is very easy to request. Send an e-mail.
By printing any lead sheet, you are thereby giving your assent to this agreement and covenant to abide by the provisions of this contract. |
