Leon, that would be a great tutorial. Redo what you did on a youtube video.
I don't really know a way around the copyright issue. Even if a tune is in the Public Domain, wouldn't that cause the administrators to have to research every tune to determine if it truly was copyright free.
It even get's complicated with public domain songs as artists will copyright their arrangement of a public domain tune. I know this has happened to House of the Rising Sun. Lot's of landmines and snakes in the grass out there.
I can't think of a solution, I would love to see what was done here and what you did as a tutorial video.

Post the song on Youtube, which has their own licensing system.

Flatfoot, That us true, but it is for original music created by forum members. I do not compose. There are lots of songs from the past which are public domain. Loved by us older folks,  and not write protected. The existing forum rules forbid users like myself from sharing their talents. The songs selected for the Artist Performances are possible examples.-----Leon Leon, read the rules carefully. "The songs must be originals, no copyrighted or "cover" songs. You must have all of the rights to the songs."The first part says "original" .... the second part says " all the rights". If you take a public domain song and record it with your style, the requirements of both lines are met, in my humble opinion, since no copyright infringement exists with public domain songs and no one holds the exclusive rights to that song anymore. You must be careful however, because some older songs are still covered by copyright. Many "Christmas songs", especially those from church hymnals written in the 1800's or earlier are all PD now..... a quick glance at the date of creation will tell you what you need to know. Go to the Library of Congress web site to figure out the length of copyright afforded the song originally since the length of protection has changed numerous times though the decades. Another option is to purchase a license for the particular cover tune as some here and in other forums have done. The Harry Fox Agency can fix you right up all nice and proper and totally legal.... for a small fee. Original and public domain.... good to go....anything else, not so much. Hope that clarifies it a bit.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

I hadn't heard this yet.
Peter, this particular song means a lot to me. My mom used to sing it to me; my late grandmother used to sing it to me. (The "Danny Boy" version, of course.)
This is a simply awesome arrangement. By chance, is there somewhere we can download an .MGU file? If there's a link on this thread, I've missed it.
Awesome.
ETA: Ahhh. Just saw how to duplicate it. Excellent!

Hi Ton,
I agree. Wonderful song, with so many memories.
Glad to hear you how you duplicated it ( by loading in the Artist Perormance File, and changing the style to _Symphony.sty
We'll get a version of that file uploaded.
Have Fun!
