David:  I would advise asking your college attorney for an opinion.  Your licenses are for performances.  They are NOT for recording, or for synchronization (if they are video rather than just audio), or for distribution.  But your situation gets into complicated questions of distributing archival recordings.  The archival recordings are legal, I believe, but distributing them is not, without licensing the recordings, so does posting them constitute distribution?

 

I'd say yes, there are copyright implications, but I'm no lawyer and you need a legal opinion.  And be careful about your own way of looking at this.  There's no such thing as "techically" under copyright.  That's like being "technically" pregnant.  It either is, or it isn't.

In that case, you have to contact PRO and ask for such licenses...
