NZ Music Publishers & Supervisors

WHAT IS PUBLISHING?
The role of the Music Publishing company is to exploit musical copyrights to generate royalties. Today, publishers are involved in licensing the use of their catalogues of musical works in a vast range of scenarios: from sheet music to mobile ringtones, including the reproduction of the musical work on albums, and the use of the musical work in advertisements or on TV, the internet or in a Film soundtrack.
