Terms and Conditions.

Last updated: 1st of December, 2025

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in commissioning music from The Astral Pianist. These Terms & Conditions explain how I work and how your commission will be handled. By purchasing or commissioning a piece, you agree to the terms below.

  1. Creative Ownership

    All music created under The Astral Pianist project is original and composed by David Graham. You are purchasing a personal-use license — not the ownership of the music itself.

    David Graham retains full copyright and intellectual property rights as the composer.

  2. Personal Use License

    When you purchase a bespoke piece, you are free to:

    • Enjoy it personally, privately, or as a gift.

    • Share it on social media (with credit/tag).

    • Use it in personal videos, slideshows, or non-commercial creative projects.

    No additional license or fee is required for personal use.

  3. Commercial & Public Use

    If your commissioned piece is used in any commercial, public, or broadcast context (e.g. film, television, radio, theatre, podcasts, YouTube monetization, or advertising), this will require proper licensing and royalties.

    David Graham remains the rights holder and must be credited appropriately.

    Please get in touch to discuss usage if this applies — collaboration is welcomed.

  4. Each commission includes:

    • A high-quality audio file (AIF and MP3)

    • Any optional extras agreed upon (e.g. handwritten manuscript, video, printed materials)

    Standard delivery is within 14 days, unless otherwise stated. You will be kept updated throughout the process.

  5. Refunds & Revisions

    Each piece is one-of-a-kind and composed by hand. For this reason, refunds cannot be offered once work has begun.

    If you are genuinely unhappy with your piece, please reach out. In exceptional cases, I may be able to offer a single alternate version, free of charge, at my discretion.

  6. Attribution

    If you share your music publicly, please credit:

    “Composed by David Graham – The Astral Pianist”

    and include a tag/link to the ‘The Astral Pianist’ profile on that platform and/or a link to [theastralpianist.com].

  7. Privacy

    Your commission is treated with respect and confidentiality. Unless you give permission otherwise, your name and personal story will not be shared.

  8. Acceptance of Terms

    By proceeding with a purchase or commission, you confirm that you:

    • Have read and understood these Terms & Conditions

    • Agree to the terms regarding personal use, copyright, and refund policy
