WHAT THE LAW SAYS:
The U.S. Copyright Law requires any business
that performs copyrighted music to obtain, in
advance, permission from the copyright owner or
representative of the copyright owner. SESAC is
one of the three US Performing Right
Organizations (PRO) and can provide this
required authorization on the behalf of our
affiliated songwriters and music publishers.
SESAC, established in 1930, is the second oldest
and fastest growing PRO in the US. For more info

US Copyright Office.

COVER ALL YOUR BASES:
If you have any agreement with another PRO, that
agreement does not provide you the required
authorization to play the songs in the SESAC
repertory. Businesses routinely obtain licenses
from all three PRO's in the US. By doing so,
they are authorized to play virtually all of the
copyrighted music in the US, and the entire
world. SESAC's goal is to provide you with the
most convenient and cost effective way to obtain
the required authorization to use all of the
music in SESAC's repertory in your dance studio
while providing compensation to music creators.
