Re: Happy Birthday & 5 Variations for Jane: Style, mixed.
Hi Sherry,
Yes, Jane likes it. But here's one of those things that belongs in the believe it or not category. "Happy Birthday," through written in the 1890s, is under copyright until 2030. I guess I'll have to put a disclaimer somewhere in the manuscript that commercial use is forbidden. Google it; it's an interesting story of how the copyright got continued, and involves some big names in the music industry.
best,
