[edit] Fair use in Henry Cowell

This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses this piece's important role in the career of the composer who is the subject of the article and specifically its innovative use of string piano techniques, as heard in the sample;
It is a low-bit-rate sample of about 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording;
It is not replaceable with a free-use sample of comparable educational value; and
It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Henry Cowell" :
