Just to take this a little step further

1) Purpose: to illustrate the efforts of my young children in a non-professional context, not to showcase the audio portion of the recording.

2) Nature: audio + video, with explicit permission to record from the show executive/directors (it was a rehearsal, professionals recorded the actual show) and focus on the visual and physical nature of the unique performance

3) amount: abridged songs, amateurishly cut and remixed

4) effect on potential market: There is no way this is a substitute for any of the original copyrighted audio, and I communicate this intent to youtube by requesting it remain unlisted.

It probably does pass the four factor fair use test, but fighting with the youtube contentid machine is futile, and their system doesn't care about fair use.
