Müyorbir

MÜYORBİR (full name in Turkish: Müzik Yorumcuları Meslek Birliği, "Professional Union of Music Interpreters") is a copyright collective for musicians in Turkey. The organization was founded in 2000 by 51 musicians under Section 42 of Turkey's Intellectual and Artistic Works Law 5846 as a Neighboring Rights Collecting Society. MÜYORBİR became a legal entity on 19 April 2000 following approval by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.[1]

MÜYORBİR represents 95% of the Turkish music industry's recorded works. It is the only collective society in Turkey authorized to license its members music content under Section 80 of Turkey's Intellectual and Artistic Works Law.[1]

International Relations

MÜYORBİR was admitted as a member of the Societies' Council for the Collective Management of Performers' Rights (SCAPR) at the organization's 35th general assembly in 2010. This followed MÜYORBİR's earlier observer status within SCAPR. This relationship provides MÜYORBİR with international representation.[2]
