My understanding about performances is that you buy performance rights
separately from taping rights. So it is against copyright to tape school
performances unless taping rights were also purchased. I think there is some
loophole about taping for teacher review after the performance but that is
all. Is this a correct understanding? Hopefully the experts can help me out.
Thanks.
