The American Federation of Musicians has sued the maker of NBC’s “The Voice,” alleging that the Beverly Hills-based producer of the reality singing competition shortchanged its members.

The New York City-based union, which represents some 80,000 performers in the U.S. and Canada, said 212 Productions LLC either underpaid or failed to pay musicians who work on “The Voice,” according to a lawsuit filed in federal court this week.

The popular show uses musicians as part of the production of the singing contest for such services as creating scores, orchestrating, transcribing and copying sheet music parts used by instrumentalists.

“On numerous occasions, 212 Productions has either under-paid or altogether failed to pay wages for a variety of music preparing services” covered under a collective bargaining agreement, the union said in its suit.
