What (copy)rights the session musician?

MusicTank's next think tank event asks whether producers, arrangers and session musicians should be better credited and rewarded in the digital music era.

The next MusicTank Think Tank event takes place next Tuesday (14 Jun), as always at Bertorelli's in Soho. Under the banner 'Whose Song Is It Anyway?', this one will be asking whether, in light of booming digital music, it's time to reassess how producers, arrangers and session musicians are credited and rewarded for their work (What if the bit of a track used for a ringtone was actually conceived by a session musician? Where is their cut of the profits?)

The keynote address will come from copyright expert James Ware. PRS director Guy Fletcher, Musicians' Union Assistant General Secretary Horace Trubridge, session musician Terry Gregory, and Music Manager's Forum copyright spokesman David Stopps will all be on the panel. The chair, as always, is Mr Keith Harris.
