What this is
The “Find tunes online” search in the editor runs on a copy of The Session’s public data, reorganised into a search database. It is a derivative database and stays under the same licence. Each tune we add to your library keeps a link back to its setting on The Session.
The tunes themselves were contributed by members of The Session and may be covered by other rights. Please respect them.
