Music copyrights are established immediately upon the development of the following elements, whether as a music piece or as a sound record. They must be an original author’s work and must be established in some tangible form of speech, such as written sheet music, a MIDI file, or a digital (or analog) recording. The creative work can be literary, visual, pedagogical, or musical. Copyright aims to shield the original presentation of the idea, but not the concept itself, the original expression of an idea in the form of creative work. Copyright is prohibited on grounds of public interest, such as the concept of fair use in the USA.
The legal framework can grant copyright which is called “territorial rights” in this instance. This means that the copyright issued in compliance with the laws of a certain state does not extend outside the jurisdiction. Such copyrights vary by country; several countries and, at times, a wide group of countries have signed procedures and arrangements with other countries where cross-national boundaries or national rights are inconsistent.
