: do you know if there's copyright issues with using beethoven music in my film? cos my
friend says it's copyright free, but doesn't the orchestra playing it have copyright on it?
The publishing, I believe, is public domain at this point.
However, the orchestra playing it gets a fee for the Master (aka that particular recording
you're using).
