I'm clearly no expert on copyright but I wonder if the rights issue would be the same as an orchestra. Would you need to get approval from each musician in an orchestra to use a recording of their performance?

I'm no expert, but AIUI, the UK style of bell ringing is different
from that elsewhere in the world. I hope our ability to upload
recordings of church bells will not be encumbered by the need to get
clearance from each bell ringer.

Can anyone comment, with any authority, on such matters?
