About

Royalties, copyright, and music licensing - what are they and how are they different? How do music creators and performers cover their bases and ensure they’re properly registered to get paid? Beginning on October 8 and runnings every Thursday in October, join Manitoba Music on Facebook Live from 12-1PM to dissect the various revenue streams and performance rights organizations (PROs) who support the creative community.
