I. REQUIREMENTS ON BOTH UNMODIFIED AND MODIFIED VERSIONS
The OpenMusic works may be reproduced and distributed in whole or in part, in any medium physical or electronic, provided that the terms of this license are adhered to, and that this license or an incorporation of it by reference (with any options elected by the author(s) and/or publisher) is displayed in the reproduction.
Proper form for an incorporation by reference is as follows: Copyright
(c)
Commercial redistribution of OpenMusic-licensed material is permitted.
Any publication in physical form (like a CD) shall require the citation of the original publisher and author. The publisher and author's names shall appear on all outer surfaces of the product. On all outer surfaces of the product the original publisher's name shall be as large as the title of the work and cited as possessive with respect to the title.
II. COPYRIGHT
The copyright to each OpenMusic is owned by its author(s) or designee. If the work covered by this license is bound to a specific transport medium (see section VI), it is possible for the author(s) or designee to publish the work on a different medium covered by a different license.
III. SCOPE OF LICENSE
The following license terms apply to all OpenMusic works, unless otherwise explicitly stated.
Mere aggregation of OpenMusic works or a portion of an OpenMusic work with other works on the same media shall not cause this license to apply to those other works. The aggregate work shall contain a notice specifying the inclusion of the OpenMusic material and appropriate copyright notice.
SEVERABILITY. If any part of this license is found to be unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remaining portions of the license remain in force.
NO WARRANTY. OpenMusic works are licensed and provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose or a warranty of non-infringement.

This notification should describe modifications, if any, made to the work. All substantive modifications (including deletions) be described in an attachment to the work. Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is considered good form to offer a free copy of any physical form expression of an OpenMusic-licensed work to its author(s).
VI. MEDIA LOCKING OPTION
The author(s) and/or publisher of an OpenMusic-licensed document may bind any publication of this work or derivative works in whole or in part on a specific transport medium (for example "digital distribution via the Internet"). Exceptions can be made with prior permission from the copyright holder.
This option is selected by appending language to the reference to or copy of the license. This option is considered part of the license instance and must be included with the license (or its incorporation by reference) in derived works.
