Summary[edit]

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free audio or music sample true for Die Hard
Description	This is the sample from a recording of Die Hard. Copyright in the recording is believed to belong to 20th Century Fox. Additional information:This is a sample of the film score for the 1988 action film Die Hard composed by Michael Kamen. It is an example of the critically praised score for a film of conflicting tones and combined samples from other songs and cannot be conveyed in words alone. (30 seconds from a total recording of 8m 35s).
Source	A version can or could be obtained from 20th Century Fox.
Article	Die Hard
Portion used	A short section sufficient to identify the work concerned, or to aid in critical commentary of the work.
Low resolution?	The sample is of sufficient quality for commentary and identification, but its quality is reduced from the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable for "unauthorised distribution" or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original recording.
Purpose of use	To illustrate the music of Die Hard. The musical tone is used to accompany scenes in the film and cannot be described effectively entirely in prose. Michael Kamen's score notably is mainly composited from older music including Symphony No. 9 by Ludwig van Beethoven, "Winter Wonderland" by Felix Bernard and Richard Bernhard Smith, "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne, and "Singin' in the Rain" by Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown. Symphony No. 9 is in the public domain. This track demonstrates the chords borrowed and remixed and the Christmas themes imbued to ironically underscore the action and villain. This can not be described in words alone..
Replaceable?	As a sample from a copyrighted musical recording, the sample is not replaceable by free content; any other sample from the same recording would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Other information	Use of the sample in the article is understood to be compatible with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. Use of this sample outside of Wikipedia may be subject to other terms.
