[Smt-talk] Music Plagiarism Cases

[Clóvis de André]

Dear Prof. Lewis,

In Brazil, last decade (if I am not mistaken), there was a lawsuit won  
by relatives of composer Heckel Tavares against pop music composer  
Fagner. I don't remember specifics right now, but if there is interest  
I could do some research.

Best,

Clóvis
