One of our collegiate chapters recently recorded a CD which was a scholarship fundraiser. They used the original tunes for the songs, most of which were old hymns. There are also several songbooks (I see them all the time on eBay) which have the music printed. I'm no lawyer, but doesn't a copywrite law have an expiration date, at which time the song becomes "public domain", thus allowing a group to use the tune in a publication (songbook or CD)?
