  ASCAP Concert Music: Composer Advice
Composers who wish to set text (prose or poetry) to music must first discover whether the text is in the public domain and free of encumbrances, or protected by copyright.
The composer's letter should clearly identify the text to be set to music: the title, author, and ISBN number of the book in which the material appears, as well as the page number(s); if the whole text is not to be set, identify the relevant lines.
The as-yet unpublished composer should give the name and address of his/her interested publisher (or offer to do so if and when a publisher becomes available) and state that such matters are certain to be discussed later by the two publishers together.
