The German Orchestra Association (registered association) [DOV] and the Federal Association of the Music Industry (registered association) [BVMI] have decreed a new version of GVL's Articles of Association in an extraordinary Associates' Assembly.

Our distribution regulations form the basis for the annual payout of remuneration to our members.

GVL is making a special payout to producers and artists.

GVL welcomed Lars Johna to the Board. The 46-year-old is successor to Jana Vejmelka and is an elected Board member for the group of producers of sound recordings.

For the first time, GVL paid out remuneration to artists represented by foreign collective management organisations based on the actual usage of productions.

With effect from 21 January 2013, Andreas Klöpfel was appointed as a GVL Board member for the group of producers of sound recordings.

GVL supports today's initiative "World Book and Copyright Day" which UNESCO has invited people to observe since 1995.

The annual campaign day "Kultur gut stärken“ launched by the German Cultural Council is planned to be held around 21 May 2013 this year. This year, it is held under the motto "cultural education".

Since today artists who have participated in the supplementary distribution 2010 and/or the original distribution 2011 can check and download their detailed reports for both distribution years via the online portal ARTSYS.GVL under "my remuneration".
