Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
 Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).

No copyright on phonographical record
May be copyrighted in some countries 		The assets of Edison Records have been transferred to the National Park Service. These recordings may be considered public domain through the donation (this is unclear), or otherwise orphan works as copyright has not been asserted by the National Park Service or any successors to Edison Records.

Sound recordings that were first published prior to January 1, 1924 are in the public domain in the United States. For Edison Records recordings that were published before 1924 and that do not incorporate preexisting copyrighted material, the template {{PD-US-record-expired}} may be applicable.


Note: The restored MP3 versions of the recordings from the University of California Santa Barbara Library are available only under an unacceptable non-commercial license.[1] Unedited raw (.wav) versions were formerly available from that site under a dedication into the public domain; while they are no longer available, those .wav files downloaded before the change in policy (dated June 2009) can still be used freely.

Other versions Image:Arthur Sullivan, The_Lost_Chord, Reed_Miller_1913 (restored 1).ogg - Sans the slight removal of the gap between "may be that only" and "in Heav'n" near the end (see below)
This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: noise reduction, click removal. Some extra attention to the first 7 seconds, which was particularly noisy. Gap between "may be that only" and "in Heav'n" removed, to fix flaw in performance..
