Rights and use

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died in 1791, so the composition is in the public domain in the US and in the countries that protect a work for its author’s life plus 70 years. The edition this recording plays (PDMX) is released under CC0, so the notes carry no conditions either. Open it in Score Studio to time it to your video: the render you make there is yours to use, in an ad too (Terms §6.3).
