About GEMA Gesellschaft

Music has its value. Lyricists and composers create music that is played and interpreted by musicians and singers. Artists are often not also music authors. Anyone who composes songs, writes music lyrics or publishes works is entitled to fair remuneration. If these works are performed publicly in clubs or concerts, broadcast commercially on the radio, reproduced on CD or used in other ways, it is only fair that the music creators share in the income from music users. Around . Composers, lyricists and music publishers in Germany have come together to form the GEMA association. As one of the largest author societies for music works in the world, GEMA protects the rights of music creators in Germany and the rights of over million rights holders from all over the world. GEMA ensures that music authors receive an appropriate share of the income from the performance of their musical works and can concentrate fully on their creative work. It concludes the contracts with the music users and collects the remuneration. GEMA then distributes this money to its members as royalties. In this way, GEMA promotes and enables a vibrant music culture in Germany and beyond.
