Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

Background

The RDA Music Implementation Task Force was formed in September 2011. Its charge

comprises several tasks, three of which are fulfilled in the present document:

1. Create music-related best practices documentation to supplement Resource Description

and Access (RDA)

2. Make recommendations regarding the relationship between the MLA music-related best

practices document and other official RDA policies such as the Library of

Congress/Program for Cooperative Cataloging Policy Statements (LC-PCC PS) and other

decisions disseminated by PCC.

3. Create complete examples for scores, audio recordings, musical works, and musical

expressions.

Purpose and Scope

These best practices guidelines should:

 Provide sufficient guidance for creating and enhancing both basic descriptions (“core

records”) and more robust descriptions of musical resources and the musical works and

expressions embodied therein. In MARC21, these descriptions take the form of

bibliographic and authority records.

 Be comprehensible and useful to both catalogers transitioning from an AACR2

environment and newly-trained catalogers.

 Be usable as the basis for training materials, such as cataloging manuals and workshop

curricula.

 Be amenable for repurposing for use in future data environments

 Be amenable for repurposing for use by agencies applying RDA in other languages.

freely available.

Use of this Document

These best practices guidelines are arranged by RDA instruction number. RDA instructions are

arranged according to the entities embodied in resources, their attributes and their

relationships, rather than by carrier format (as was the case in AACR2); these guidelines are

structured accordingly. Situations pertaining to specific formats are described in the context of

the applicable RDA instruction.

This document should be consulted in combination with RDA itself, as well as any local and/or

cooperative policies, including LC-PCC PS and section Z1 of the Library of Congress Descriptive

Cataloging Manual (DCM Z1)

. MARC mappings and examples are intended to supplement the

RDA to MARC mappings given in the Toolkit, as well as the MARC21 documentation itself

and

encoding guidelines specific to the cataloging interface

. Cases where LC-PCC PS gives sufficient

guidance, and where these guidelines contravene LC-PCC PS, are indicated as such.

These guidelines presume no prior knowledge on the part of the reader of the Anglo-American

Cataloging Rules, 2

Edition, Revised (AACR2) or their accompanying Library of Congress Rule

Interpretations (LCRI). However, pertinent comparisons to AACR2 are made in a limited number

of cases (i.e., when RDA practice differs fundamentally).

These guidelines do presume a basic

level of training with RDA and LC-PCC PS, however. With a few exceptions, cataloging guidelines

of a general nature, such as for identifying and constructing access points for persons and

corporate bodies, are out of scope for this document.

Recommendations prefaced by “if feasible” apply to elements that are not identified as RDA

Core (or in some cases LC “Core-plus”), but that the Task Force feels are routinely valuable to

transcribe or record for music resources. Cataloger’s judgment dictates that any such elements

which are difficult to ascertain or burdensome to transcribe or record do not fall into the

category of “feasibility” and thus may be omitted. The Task Force also understands that the

above criteria will vary from cataloger to cataloger, and from agency to agency. In an

increasingly distributed global metadata environment, the burden of completeness need not

rest with an individual metadata creator. Thus, these recommendations are equally intended to

serve as guidance when enhancing existing metadata for music resources.

Recommendations designated “if readily ascertainable” apply to information present on the

resource being cataloged, or information encountered during the course of routine authority

research.

Available in Cataloger’s Desktop (http://desktop.loc.gov)

http://www.loc.gov/marc

A prime example is OCLC’s Bibliographic Formats and Standards (http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/). Note that at

the time of writing of these best practices guidelines, the documentation available at this site has not yet been

fully harmonized with RDA.

applied to music resources, see presentation by Daniel Paradis, available at

Section 1. Recording Attributes of

Manifestation & Item

Chapter 1. General Guidelines on Recording Attributes of

Manifestations and Items

1.4. Language and Script

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. If feasible, follow LC-PCC PS also for the first

alternative (LC and/or PCC practices, as applicable) and the optional addition, that is, transcribe

both the original script and a transliterated form for the elements listed. Otherwise, transcribe

only the transliterated form.

1.5. Type of Description

MLA recommendation: for large multi-volume sets and series of notated music (i.e., those that

are typically classed in M2-M3.1), generally create separate descriptions for the set/series as a

whole and for each volume in the series, regardless of whether the set is classed together or

not.

Relate separately cataloged volumes to the main work following the guidelines in Chapter

25 (Related Works).

1.5.2. Comprehensive Description

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

1.5.3. Analytical Description

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

1.5.4. Hierarchical Description

MLA recommendation: Generally follow LC-PCC PS, except when applying the recommendation

given under 1.5.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

1.7.1. Transcription

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, including for both alternatives, that is, for each

separate element, either “take what you see” from the resource or apply Appendix A, per local

policy and/or cataloger’s judgment.

If applying Appendix A, or when in doubt, leave a space between a caption (e.g., “op.”) and an

opus or thematic index number.

1.7.5. Symbols

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

1.8.2. Form of Numerals

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for 1

alternative.

Note: this may result in a different form of numeral in a series transcription (490) and its

corresponding access point (8xx).

EXAMPLES:

490 1_ AIMP ; $v CIII

830 _0 Archives internationales de musique populaire

(Series) ; $v 103.

490 1_ Documenta musicologica. Zweite Reihe: Handschriften-

Faksimiles ; $v Band XLIII

830 _0 Documenta musicologica. $n 2. Reihe, $p

Handschriften-Faksimiles ; $v 43.

1.10.2. Notes--Capitalization

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for both alternatives.

Chapter 2. Identifying Manifestations and Items

2.1.2.3. Resource Issued in More Than One Part

This instruction applies to many kinds of music resources, including multi-disc audio recordings,

scores issued with parts, sets of parts, etc. The following are guidelines for choosing a preferred

source of information in several common cases.

Multi-part audio recordings:

1) Generally apply b) if parts are numbered and title information is repeated on each part.

If title information is not repeated, treat the individual parts as a collective source.

2) Generally apply a) if parts are not numbered and title information is repeated on each

part. If title information is not repeated, treat the individual parts as a collective source.

Scores issued with parts: Generally apply a) and treat the score (along with a cover or wrapper if

present) as a source of information identifying the resource as a whole.

Sets of parts with no score: Generally apply a) if there is a cover or wrapper, and treat it as a

source of information identifying the resource as a whole. If there is no cover or wrapper, apply

d) and select one of the parts as the main part. Use judgment in making this selection, giving

preference to parts that would generally appear first in score order (e.g., violin I in a string

quartet, flute in a wind quintet). In both cases, apply 2.20.2.3 and make a note on the source of

the title.

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers: Generally apply a) or d) as follows:

1) If the audio/video carrier is affixed to the cover or endpapers of the book/score, apply a)

and treat the book/score as the source of information identifying the resource as a

whole. Apply 2.2.2.2.

2) If the book/score and audio/video carrier is housed together in a single container (e.g., a

box containing a CD jewel case and a book) or the book/score is inserted into the

container (e.g., a booklet in a jewel case), or the book/score is the same size as the

audio/video carrier, apply d) and treat the audio/video carrier as the main part. Note

that a booklet cover which is visible through the front of a container forms part of that

container. Apply 2.2.2.3 or 2.2.2.4 as appropriate.

3) In cases of doubt, base the decision on the perceived intent of the publisher and/or the

relative importance of each component to the cataloging agency.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.2.2.2. Preferred Source of Information--Resources Consisting of One or More Pages, Leaves,

Sheets, or Cards (or Images of One or More Pages, Leaves, Sheets, or Cards)

Note: for printed music, cover is preferred over caption.

Use cataloger's judgment in determining whether or not the resource has a cover. Generally

consider a cover to be made of substantially different material (e.g., heavier or different

colored paper) than the paper on which the music is printed.

2.2.2.4. Preferred Source of Information--Other Resources

This instruction applies to all audio carriers.

2.3.1.7. Title Proper--Titles of Parts, Sections, and Supplements

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

EXAMPLES:

245 10 Choraleworks. $n Set II : $b ten chorale preludes

for organ

245 10 Ouvertures per il teatro di Shakespeare. $n N. 5, $p

Il racconto d'inverno : $b per orchestra

245 10 Bolivian Baroque. $n Vol. 2, $p Music from the

missions and La Plata

245 00 Billboard #1s. $p The '70s

245 04 The Dick Cavett show. $p Ray Charles collection

245 00 Musical theatre for classical singers. $p Soprano

The compilations with this title for other voice ranges contain different songs.

but

245 10 Songs of separation / William Grant Still.

250 Tenor.

This piece is published in tenor and baritone versions.

Under AACR2, caption was preferred over cover.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.3.2.8.1. Other Elements Recorded as Part of the Title Proper--Type of Composition, Medium

of Performance, Key, Etc.

MLA recommendation: Consult the alphabetical list at Types of Compositions for Use in Music

Uniform Titles to determine whether the title in question meets the condition of the

instruction. Do not consider such titles as "Double concerto," "Tripelkonzert", etc. to be names

of types of compositions.

When a composer uses a word which is normally the name of a type of composition as the title

of a work which is definitely not a work of the type designated by the word, do not consider the

title to be the name of a type of composition.

A title consisting of two words, each of which alone would be the name of a type of

composition, may in combination produce a distinctive title. Generally treat such a compound

title as a distinctive title.

2.3.2.9. Title Proper--Resources Lacking a Collective Title

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, generally do not apply the alternative. Apply

the alternative in cases of archival or other large collections. Note that since resources of this

type do not normally carry title information, the exception at 2.2.4 applies and no square

brackets are necessary.

EXAMPLES:

245 00 Collection of 18th century English songs and

ballads.

245 04 The Vivian Perlis Collection of Schmitz, Ornstein,

Copland, and Kirkpatrick.

2.3.2.11. Title Proper--Recording Devised Titles

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.3.3. Parallel Title Proper

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record all parallel titles proper appearing on the preferred

source. Optionally, record parallel titles appearing elsewhere in the item.

Parallel titles from any source in the item may be transcribed in 245 $b or $c, without square

brackets. Parallel titles should also be encoded in 246 31, to ensure proper indexing.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ De Pastel, Karen, $d 1949-

245 10 Unter den Gärten von Bolhás : $b 9 Stücke über

ungarische Volksmelodien für 2 Flöten = In the gardens of

Bolhás : 9 pieces based on Hungarian folksongs for 2 flutes

/ $c Karen De Pastel.

246 31 In the gardens of Bolhás

When a parallel title is taken from outside the preferred source and recorded in 246 (in

addition to 245 $b or $c), apply 2.20.2.3 (Note on Title Source) by encoding either a 500 note or

an introductory phrase in 246 $i.

EXAMPLE:

245 04 Das dunkle Reich = $b Dark kingdom

246 31 Dark kingdom

500 English title from caption.

245 04 Das dunkle Reich = $b Dark kingdom

246 1_ $i English title from caption: $a Dark kingdom

Alternatively, parallel titles from outside the preferred source may be given only in 246 1_ with

an introductory phrase in $i. This approach may be preferable when multiple parallel titles

appear in different sources, and therefore the second paragraph at 2.3.3.3 is difficult to apply.

EXAMPLE:

245 10 Píseň bohatýrská = $b Heroisches Lied = A hero's

song = Le chant héroïque : op. 111 / $c Antonín Dvořák.

246 1 $i Parallel title on cover: $a Heldenlied

246 31 Heroisches Lied

246 31 Hero’s song

246 31 Chant héroïque

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.3.4. Other Title Information

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, routinely transcribe other title information

appearing in the same source as the title proper.

Give subtitles, alternative titles, etc. appearing on other sources (e.g., cover, caption, container

spine of an audio carrier) if deemed useful for identification or access. Since other title

information as defined in RDA can only be transcribed from the same source as the title proper,

encode such subtitles as variant titles (per 2.3.6) in 246. Use indicators 13, 1_ with $i, or other

indicator values according to local practice, as appropriate.

EXAMPLES:

245 00 Barry Manilow.

246 1_ $i Subtitle on cover: $a Sing 8 of his best with

sound-alike CD tracks

245 03 El lenguaje del tambor

246 1 $i Subtitle on container: $a Bata rhythms &

techniques from Matanzas, Cuba

246 1_ $i Subtitle on container spine: $a Collection of

tracks from performers who made their name at Harlem's

legendary Apollo Theatre

246 1_ $i Subtitle on insert: $a Tribute to Peter Tosh

2.3.5. Parallel Other Title Information

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel other title information. See D.1.2.2 for

guidance on encoding parallel data in 245, using ISBD presentation.

2.3.6.3. Recording Variant Titles

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Encode titles in 246 or 740 as appropriate. When

encoding variant titles in 246, use indicators 13, 1_ with $i, or other values according to local

practice, as appropriate.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

EXAMPLES:

245 00 64 spirituals a cappella : $b traditional Afro-

American songs

246 3_ Sixty-four spirituals a cappella

245 10 Oscar Wilde's The happy prince

246 30 Happy prince

245 10 Variations on "Awariguli"

246 30 Awariguli

245 00 Jazz concerto : $b Hot-Sonate (Jazz-Sonate) (1930) :

für Altsaxophon und Klavier

246 30 Hot-Sonate

246 30 Jazz-Sonate

245 14 The art of tremolo : $b a comprehensive analysis of

740 02 48 responses to Polymorphia.

740 02 Forty-eight responses to Polymorphia.

240 10 Männerlist grösser als Frauenlist

245 10 Männerlist grosser als Frauenlist, oder, Die

glückliche Bärenfamilie

246 15 Men are more cunning than women, or, The happy bear

family

246 30 Männerlist grosser als Frauenlist

246 30 Glückliche Bärenfamilie

246 30 Happy bear family

245 00 Nigeria 70. $p Sweet times : $b Afro-funk, highlife

246 30 Sweet times

246 30 Afro-funk, highlife & juju from 1970s Lagos

246 3_ Nigeria seventy

246 3_ Afro-funk, highlife and juju from 1970s Lagos

In this example, “Ma

nnerlist gro

sser als Frauenlist” is being given both as the preferred title (in 240) and as a

variant title based on the first part of an alternative title (in 246), per LCPS 2.3.6.3(D)(1).

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.4.1.1. Statements of Responsibility--Scope

MLA recommendation: For the purposes of this instruction, generally consider that the

participation of performers of popular music, jazz, etc., is not limited to performance,

execution, or interpretation, and record statements identifying these performers as statements

of responsibility.

2.4.1.4. Recording Statements of Responsibility

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, generally do not apply the optional omission.

2.4.1.5. Statement of Responsibility--Statement Naming More than One Person, Etc.

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, generally do not apply the optional omission.

2.4.1.8. Noun Phrases Occurring with a Statement of Responsibility

This instruction applies regardless of whether the noun(s) or noun phrase(s) is/are indicative of

the nature of the work

, and regardless of whether the noun(s) or noun phrase(s) appear(s)

immediately adjacent to the prepositional phrase(s) following it.

EXAMPLES:

245 10 Tartuffe : $b comic opera in three acts / $c music

and libretto by Kirke Mecham.

245 14 Der Freischütz / $c Oper in 3 Akten von C.M. von

Weber.

245 13 La sonnambula / $c Vincenzo Bellini ; melodramma in

due atti di Felice Romani ; riduzione per canto e

pianoforte condotta sull'edizione critica della partitura a

cura di Alessandro Roccatagliati e Luca Zoppelli.

If deemed useful for identification or access, encode a variant title in 246, using indicators 13,

for any noun(s) or noun phrase(s) not already recorded as title information.

Under AACR2, such nouns were transcribed as other title information.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.4.2. Statement of Responsibility Relating to Title Proper

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record all statements of responsibility relating to title proper

appearing on the preferred source. Optionally, record statements of responsibility relating to

title proper appearing elsewhere in the item.

Statements of responsibility relating to title proper from any source in the item may be

transcribed in 245 $c, without square brackets. If transcribing statements from multiple

sources, apply 2.4.1.6 and give them in the order that makes the most sense, according to

judgment. Generally, give statements from prominent sources (e.g., cover, caption, title page

verso) before statements from other sources, and give all statements appearing in the item

before statements from outside the item (which are given in square brackets).

For the purposes of this instruction, do not consider attributions, etc. embedded in text to be

statements of responsibility. If desired, apply 2.20.3 and give such attributions as notes on

statement of responsibility.

EXAMPLES:

245 12 A piece for Yvonne : $b for solo piano / $c Gustav

Holst ; edited by Raymond Head.

On caption: edited by Raymond Head.

245 10 Nänie : $b for chorus of mixed voices with orchestra

(and harp ad libitum) op. 82 / $c [poem by] Friedrich

Schiller ; [music by] Johannes Brahms ; English version by

Alma Strettell.

On title page: Friedrich Schiller, Johannes Brahms. On caption: English version by Alma

Strettell. On cover: music by Johannes Brahms, poem by Friedrich Schiller. (Statements from title

page transcribed first, and 2.4.1.7 applied)

245 10 On the beach at Fontana : $b soprano and piano / $c

Roger Sessions ; text by James Joyce.

On cover: text by James Joyce.

2.4.3. Parallel Statement of Responsibility Relating to Title Proper

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel statements of responsibility relating to

the title proper. See D.1.2.2 for guidance on encoding parallel data in 245, using ISBD

presentation.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.5.1.4. Recording Edition Statements

Separate multiple designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition, etc. in 250

by a comma.

EXAMPLES:

250 Revised 1947 version, Full orchestral score.

250 Full score, Second printing with revisions.

2.5.1.5. Edition Statements Relating to Issues or Parts

A common case in music is when a score, cataloged together with parts, bears the statement

“Score” (or its equivalent). Per this instruction, do not treat such a statement as a designation

of edition, as it does not apply to the entire resource.

2.5.2. Designation of Edition

The most common designations of edition in music resources fall into category (b)(vii), “a

statement indicating … a particular voice range or format for notated music.

”

Treat a statement indicating a particular voice range that is not grammatically linked to the

title, other title information, etc. as a designation of edition, whether or not it includes the

word "edition" or its equivalent.

EXAMPLES:

250 Low voice.

245 10 Songs of separation / William Grant Still.

250 Tenor.

245 10 Songs of separation / William Grant Still.

250 Baritone.

This piece is published in tenor and baritone versions.

but

245 00 Musical theatre for classical singers. $p Soprano

The compilations with this title for other voice ranges contain different songs.

Under AACR2, statements of the latter type were treated as Musical Presentation Statements, and encoded in

MARC field 254.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

For the latter type (“format for notated music”), refer to the list of formats given at 7.20.1.3 for

guidance in determining whether the statement in question fits the scope or not.

Vocal scores and chorus scores are special cases inasmuch as they have dual identities: as a

format of notated music (manifestation), subject to this instruction

, and as a type of

arrangement (expression). Do not treat other statements of arrangement, transposition, etc. as

designations of edition; transcribe those statements as statements of responsibility, per 2.4.

When in doubt, treat the statement as a statement of responsibility.

EXAMPLES:

250 Partitur und Stimmen.

250 Klavierauszug.

250 Studien- und Dirigierpartitur.

245 10 Six great secular cantatas / $c Johann Sebastian

Bach.

250 In full score.

On title page: Six great secular cantatas in full score.

245 10 Orlando furioso : $b dramma per musica in tre atti,

RV 728 / $c Antonio Vivaldi ; arrangement pour clavier,

Jacques Manet …

250 Chant et clavier.

On title page: Arrangement pour clavier, Jacques Manet.

On cover: Chant et clavier.

but

245 10 … / $c … ; flute and piano reduction.

245 10 Konzert für Violine und Orchester D-Dur / $c Ludwig

van Beethoven ; Ausgabe für Violine und Klavier von

Christian Rudolf Riedel.

On title page: Ausgabe fr Violine und Klavier von Christian Rudolf Riedel = Edition for violin and

piano.

For statements containing "Urtext" and its variants: consult the National Authority File to see if

the usage by a particular publisher has been established as a series or series-like phrase. If

appropriate, transcribe as a series statement (see 2.12). In other cases, use judgment in

determining whether the statement fits the "difference in content" criterion and thus may be

transcribed as an edition statement. When in doubt, do not transcribe as an edition statement.

Under AACR2, vocal score statements were treated as Statements of Responsibility.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.5.3. Parallel Designation of Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel designations of edition in 250 $b.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

EXAMPLES:

250 Study score = $b Studienpartitur.

250 Partytura = $b Score = Partitur.

250 Erstdruck, Partitur und Stimmen = $b First printing,

Score and parts.

250 Limited edition = $b Edición limitada

250 Édition critique = $b Edizione critica = Critical

edition.

2.5.4. Statement of Responsibility Relating to the Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe, in 250 $b, all statements of responsibility relating

to the edition.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

EXAMPLES:

250 Klavierauszug = $b Vocal score / Paul Horn.

250 Revised edition / $b by Leslie Howard.

250 Vocal score / $b revised by Michael Pilkington.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.5.5. Parallel Statement of Responsibility Relating to the Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel statements of responsibility relating to

the edition in 250 $b.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

EXAMPLES:

250 Vocal score / $b arranged by Sam Jones =

Klavierauszug / bearbeitet von Sam Jones.

250 Partition chant et piano d'après le Urtext de

l'édition "L'opéra français" / $b par Karl-Heinz Müller =

Piano reduction based on the Urtext of the edition "L'opéra

français" / by Karl-Heinz Müller = Klavierauszug nach dem

Urtext der Ausgabe "L'opéra français" / von Karl-Heinz

Müller.

250 Neuausgabe nach den Quellen, Partitur = $b New

edition based on original sources, Full score.

250 Erstveröffentlichung, Klavierauszug = $b First

edition, Vocal score = Première edition, Partition pour

piano.

2.5.6. Designation of a Named Revision of an Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all designations of named revision of an edition, in

250 $a or $b as applicable.

Separate multiple designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition, etc. in 250

by a comma.

EXAMPLE:

250 5th edition, with corrections, Study score.

2.5.7. Parallel Designation of a Named Revision of an Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel designations of named revision of

edition in 250 $b.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.5.8. Statement of Responsibility Relating to a Named Revision of an Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all statements of responsibility relating to a named

revision of edition in 250 $b.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

2.5.9. Parallel Statement of Responsibility Relating to a Named Revision of an Edition

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel statements of responsibility relating to

a named revision of edition in 250 $b.

Note that any subsequent designations of edition, designations of named revision of edition,

etc. should follow a comma in $b (250 $a and $b are not repeatable).

2.7.2. Place of Production

MLA recommendation: If deemed useful for identification or access, transcribe place of

production in 264 (2

indicator 0) $a.

EXAMPLES:

264 _0 $a [Boston, Massachusetts]

Title frames: An evening of opera scenes, recorded in Studio 401, March 4, 2011, by the Boston

Conservatory.

264 _0 $a New York

Resource is a holograph sketch. Caption: Trio in D (1950) / B. Martinů. P. 11: New York, February

2[6?], 1950.

2.8.2. Place of Publication

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

If more than one place is given in the resource and it is unclear which is the “true” place of

publication and which is a place of distribution, foreign office, etc., give all places.

2.8.2.6. Place of Publication Not Identified in the Resource

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Interpret “if possible” to mean “if feasible.”

2.8.4. Publisher's Name

MLA recommendation: Transcribe the names of all publishers appearing on the preferred

source. If feasible, transcribe the names of all publishers appearing anywhere in the item.

Encode in 264 (2

indicator 1) $b.

Treat a trade name or brand name used by a publishing company (i.e., a “label” in the case of

audio recordings) as a publisher’s name.

EXAMPLES:

264 _1 [Hamburg, Germany] : $b Archiv Produktion, a

Universal Music company

264 _1 New York, N.Y. : $b London

On label: London; on container: London Records, a division of Polygram Records, Inc., New York,

N.Y.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

Note that there is no option to transcribe a publisher name in the “shortest form in which it can

be understood and identified internationally”. Thus, when in doubt as to whether a

presentation of two names in the same source represents a publishing company and the name

of a subdivision of that company or a trade name or brand name used by that company, or

whether it represents two unrelated publishers, transcribe both names as separate publishers.

EXAMPLES:

264 _1 Minneapolis, Minnesota : $b Libby Larsen Publishing

: $b Kenwood Editions

264 _1 [Paris] : $b Opus111 : $b Naïve

2.8.4.4. Publisher's Name--Statement of Function

MLA recommendation: Generally do not apply the optional addition.

2.8.4.7. No Publisher Identified

MLA recommendation: If transcribing a separate distributor statement in 264 (2

indicator 2),

record “[publisher not identified]” in 264 (2

indicator 1) $b. If not transcribing a separate

distributor statement in 264 (2

indicator 2), and it is believed the distributor is also the

publisher, transcribe the distributor name in square brackets in 264 (2

indicator 1) $b.

EXAMPLES:

264 _1 [Nanterre] : $b [Rue Stendhal]

264_1 [Place of publication not identified] : $b [publisher

not identified]

264 _2 [Nanterre] : $b distribué par Rue Stendhal

264 _1 [Chatsworth, California] : $b [Image Entertainment]

264 _1 [Place of publication not identified] : $b

[publisher not identified]

264 _2 Chatsworth, California : $b Distributed exclusively

by Image Entertainment

On container: Distributed exclusively by Image Entertainment. No other publisher on item.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.8.6.6. Date of Publication Not Identified in a Single-Part Resource

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Note that copyright date (whether © or ℗) is a

separate element in RDA. It, or a copyright renewal or transfer notice (see Best Practices

2.11) may be used to infer a publication date, but may not “stand in” as one. Give such inferred

dates in square brackets. Routinely give copyright date separately, even if it is the same as the

stated or inferred publication date. Give the date of publication in 264 (2nd indicator 1) $c and

the copyright date in 264 (2nd indicator 4) $c. See Best Practices 2.11 for guidelines on selecting

and recording copyright dates.

EXAMPLES:

264 _1 $c [2011]

and

008/6: t

008/7-14: 2011, 2011

264 _1 $c [2011?]

Publication date inferred from date given in preface.

2.9. Distribution Statement

MLA recommendation: If transcribing a distribution statement separately from a publication

statement, encode it in 264 (2

indicator 2). It is not always necessary to record a separate

date of distribution if date of publication and copyright are already recorded.

EXAMPLES:

264 _2 Milwaukee, WI : $b Hal Leonard Corporation

264 _2 Kraków : $b Andromeda

264 _2 Kassel ; $a New York : $b Distribution mondiale

Bärenreiter

264 _2 Paris : $b Distribution pour le monde entier,

Alphonse Leduc

264 _2 Oaks, PA : $b Eclectic DVD Distribution

When in doubt as to whether a person, family or corporate body is functioning as publisher or

distributor, transcribe the name as a publisher’s name.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.10. Manufacture Statement

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

2.10.2. Place of Manufacture

Encode place of manufacture in 264 (2

indicator 3) $a.

EXAMPLE:

264 _3 $a Austria

2.10.4. Manufacturer’s Name

Encode manufacture’s name in 264 (2

indicator 3) $b.

EXAMPLE:

264 _3 Austria : $b Fabriqué par Sony DADC

2.10.6. Date of Manufacture

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, routinely infer a publication date from a date

of manufacture and/or copyright date if it seems reasonable to assume that date is a likely

publication date. Do this even if also giving date of manufacture separately in 264 (2

indicator

3) $c.

EXAMPLE:

264 _3 Austria : $b Fabriqué par Sony DADC, $c 2012.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.11. Copyright Date

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, generally do not record copyright dates for

multipart monographs. For notated music, routinely record the latest copyright date in 264 (2

indicator 4) $c.

EXAMPLE:

264 _1 $c [2011]

For audio recordings, routinely record the latest phonogram copyright date in a separate 264

indicator 4) $c. If it has been deemed useful for identification or access to also record the

latest regular copyright date, record both dates in a single 264 (2

indicator 4) field, in separate

occurrences of $c.

EXAMPLES:

264_1 $c [2010]

and

264_4 $c ℗2008

264_1 $c [2010]

and

Code Date type and Dates 1 and 2 in 008/06-14 as appropriate.

Do not transcribe a copyright renewal date as the copyright date. Do not transcribe a date of

2.12. Series Statement

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

For statements containing "Urtext" and its variants: consult the National Authority File to see if

the usage by a particular publisher has been established as a series or series-like phrase. If

appropriate, transcribe as a series statement. In other cases, use judgment in determining

whether the statement fits the "difference in content" criterion and thus may be transcribed as

an edition statement (see 2.5.2). When in doubt, do not transcribe as an edition statement.

See http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/dtst.shtm#DtSt for determining precedence of date type

when coding multiple dates.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.12.3. Parallel Series Statement

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel series statements.

2.12.6. Statement of Responsibility Relating to Series

MLA recommendation: Routinely transcribe the first statement of responsibility for series

representing the complete works or selected works of one composer.

EXAMPLE:

490 1_ Ausgewählte Werke / Homilius

800 1_ Homilius, Gottfried August, $d 1714-1785. $t Works.

$k Selections. $f 2006.

2.12.7. Parallel Statement of Responsibility Relating to Series

MLA recommendation: If transcribing a statement of responsibility relating to a series (such as

for the complete works or selected works of one composer), and if transcribing one or more

parallel series statements for the same series, routinely transcribe a parallel statement of

responsibility corresponding to each parallel series statement transcribed. See D.1.2.2 for

guidance on encoding parallel data in 490, using ISBD presentation.

EXAMPLES:

490 1_ Sämtliche Werke für Laute / Silvius Leopold Weiss ;

$v Band 2 = $a Complete works for lute / Silvius Leopold

Weiss ; $v volume 2

800 1_ Weiss, Silvius Leopold, $d 1687-1750. $t Lute music.

$f 2002 ; $v Bd. 2

490 1_ Opera omnia latina / Matthei Rosmarini ; $v I/1 = $a

Collected works / Mateo Romero ; $v volume I/1

800 1_ Romero, Mateo, $d 1575 or 6-1647. $t Choral music.

$k Selections ; $v 1/1.

2.12.8. ISSN of Series

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

2.12.9. Numbering Within Series

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.12.11. Parallel Subseries Statement

MLA recommendation: If feasible, transcribe all parallel subseries statements. See D.1.2.2 for

guidance on encoding parallel data in 490, using ISBD presentation.

2.12.16. ISSN of Subseries

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

2.13. Mode of Issuance

Though LC-PCC PS 2.13 indicates that this is a core element for LC/PCC, current

implementations of the MARC21 Bibliographic Format in North America do not provide an

unambiguous means

for coding mode of issuance for a multipart monograph

. Rather, this

particular mode of issuance is inferred based on a number of clues elsewhere in the record. For

the following types of multipart monographs, mode of issuance is indicated by one or more of

the following.

Multi-volume scores and audio recordings:

 008/06 (“Type of Date/Publication Status”) m

 300 $a begins with a numeral higher than 1 followed by a term for type of carrier (e.g.,

“2 audio discs”)

 300 $a contains “(x volumes)”, where x is a numeral higher than 1

Scores issued with part(s):

 008/21 or 006/04 (“Music parts”) d, e, f

 300 contains a “+ x part(s)”

Sets of parts with no score:

 008/21 or 006/04 (“Music parts”) d, e, f

 300 $a begins with a numeral higher than 1 followed by “parts”

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers:

 300 contains $e

 Multiple instances of 300

 006 present

The RDA to MARC mapping for Mode of Issuance for a multipart monograph designates Leader/19 (“Multipart

resource record level”), a character position which is currently not available for direct encoding in OCLC or most

other cataloging interfaces. Per LC-PCC PS 2.13.1.3, Leader/07 m is to be encoded for both single and multipart

monographs.

Defined in RDA as “A resource issued in two or more parts (either simultaneously or successively) that is

complete or intended to be completed within a finite number of parts (e.g., a dictionary in two volumes, three

audiocassettes issued as a set)”. Note that this definition applies to a resource regardless of how its component

carriers are described. See 3.1.4 for guidance on describing accompanying material.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

Audio/video carriers with accompanying volume (insert, booklet, etc.):

 300 contains $e (uncommon)

 Multiple instances of 300 (uncommon)

 500 note describing accompanying material

2.13.1.3 Recording Modes of Issuance

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

2.15. Identifier for the Manifestation

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record all standard identifiers present on the item, including

but not limited to the following. MARC coding is indicated in parentheses.

 ISBN (020)

 ISMN (024 (1

indicator 2))

 EAN (024 (1

indicator 3))

 UPC (024 (1

indicator 1))

 Issue number (audio recordings) (028 (1

indicator 0))

 Matrix number (audio recordings) (028 (1

indicator 1))

 Videorecording number (028 (1

indicator 4))

EXAMPLES:

020 0895796929

024 1_ 680160601042

028 02 EK 62137 $b Epic

On container: Hidden Beach Recordings, Manufactured and distributed by Epic.

028 42 OA 0969 D $b Opus Arte

13-digit ISMNs have historically been designated in OCLC using 024 1

indicator 3. The MARC documentation has

been revised to clarify that both 10- and 13-digit ISMNs can be designated using 1

indicator 2.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

Record qualifying information following the identifier as appropriate (e.g., for components of a

multipart monograph, or for variant forms of an identifier).

EXAMPLES:

028 02 438 953-2 $b Philips Classics $q (set)

028 02 438 954-2 $b Philips Classics $q (disc 1)

028 02 438 955-2 $b Philips Classics $q (disc 2)

028 02 ECM 2316 $b ECM $q (disc 1)

028 02 372 9527 $b ECM $q (disc 1)

028 02 ECM 2317 $b ECM $q (disc 2)

028 02 372 9528 $b ECM $q (disc 2)

Multi-CD set that has two numbering schemes; disc labels include both numbers.

For audio/video recording reissues, optionally record the issue and/or matrix number(s)

pertaining to the original manifestation in 028 (1

indicator 0 or 1). Do this in addition to

formulating a structured or unstructured description of the related manifestation (see 27.1). If

this description includes the issue and/or matrix number(s), set 028 2

indicator to 0.

EXAMPLES:

028 02 COL-CD-6618 $b Collectables Records

028 00 1446 $b Atlantic

028 00 1509 $b Atlantic

500 Originally issued as analog discs in 1966 (Atlantic

2.15.1.5. More Than One Identifier for the Manifestation

MLA recommendation: When a publisher's number appears in variant forms on an audio

recording, its container, accompanying material, etc., record at least the form on the recording

itself (e.g., the labels of a disc). If deemed useful for identification or access, record other forms

as well. Follow each by a qualifier indicating its location, if appropriate.

EXAMPLE:

028 02 VDE-CD-552 $b VDE-Gallo

028 02 VDE-552 $b VDE-Gallo $q (container)

When two or more distinct publisher's numbers appear on an audio recording, its container,

accompanying material, etc., record each, followed by a qualifier indicating its location, if

appropriate.

EXAMPLE:

028 02 MS-003 $b Mosaic

028 02 B2-82418 $b Mosaic $q (container)

Generally record matrix numbers only if they are the only numbers shown on the item. If

deemed useful for identification or access, record matrix numbers even if the resource also

bears regular publisher's numbers. Follow each matrix number by the word matrix in

parentheses.

EXAMPLE:

028 02 P 406 $b Folkways Recs. & Serv. Corp.

028 02 EFL 1406 $b Folkways Recs. & Serv. Corp. $q (container)

028 12 FP 406 $b Folkways Recs. & Serv. Corp. $q (matrix)

Matrix number recorded because it might appear with “FP” in catalogs or citations.

Generally follow LC-PCC PS for the optional addition, that is, record identifiers for all units,

including cases where scores and parts bear separate identifiers, if feasible. Follow each

identifier by a qualifier indicating the unit(s) to which it refers.

Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.15.2. Publisher's Number for Music

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record all publisher’s and distributor’s numbers appearing on

the item. Apply the basic instructions on recording identifiers for the manifestation given under

2.15.1. However, do not precede the number with a trade name or the name of the agency,

etc., responsible for assigning it. If the resource has more than one number, record a brief

qualification only if considered important for identification, e.g., if numbers for parts of the

resource are recorded. Record the name of the publisher or distributor associated with the

number in 028 $b, in the same form as that transcribed in the publisher’s/distributor’s name

element. However, do not include levels of corporate hierarchy.

When a designation such as "no.," "Nr.," "cat. no.," "Ed. Nr." appears with a publisher's

number, do not consider it to be part of the number and do not record it with the number in

028 (1

indicator 3). If, however, initials, abbreviations, or words identifying the publisher also

appear with the number, transcribe the entire statement as it appears in 028 (with 2

indicator

2) or a 500 note, even if this means giving again a publisher's name already transcribed as such.

Do this in addition to recording the number alone in 028; set 2

indicator to 0 in this case.

EXAMPLES:

028 32 FK090003 $b Serenissima Music Inc.

028 32 HL00042155 $b Hal Leonard Corporation

028 30 3891 $b C.F. Peters

028 32 Edition Peters Nr. 3891 $b C.F. Peters

028 30 3891 $b C.F. Peters

500 Publisher's number: Edition Peters Nr. 3891

For reprint scores, optionally record the publisher’s number(s) pertaining to the original

manifestation in 028 (1

indicator 3). Do this in addition to formulating a structured or

unstructured description of the related manifestation (see 27.1). If this description includes the

publisher’s number(s), set 028 2

indicator to 0.

For multipart notated music resources, apply the LC-PCC PS for the optional addition at

2.15.1.5, that is, follow each publisher’s number by a qualifier indicating the unit(s) to which it

refers.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

2.15.3. Plate Number for Music

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record all plate numbers appearing on the item. Apply the

basic instructions on recording identifiers for the manifestation given under 2.15.1. However,

do not precede the number with a trade name or the name of the agency, etc., responsible for

assigning it. If the resource has more than one number, record a brief qualification only if

considered important for identification, e.g., if numbers for parts of the resource are recorded.

Record the name of the publisher or distributor associated with the number in 028 $b, in the

same form as that transcribed in the publisher’s/distributor’s name element. However, do not

include levels of corporate hierarchy.

EXAMPLES:

028 22 D. 19 806 $b Doblinger

028 22 CMBV 063 $b Centre du musique baroque de Versailles

When a designation such as "no.," "Nr.," "cat. no.," "Ed. Nr." appears with a plate number, do

not consider it to be part of the number and do not record it with the number in 028 (1

indicator 2). If, however, initials, abbreviations, or words identifying the publisher also appear

with the number, transcribe the entire statement as it appears in 028 (with 2

indicator 2) or a

500 note, even if this means giving again a publisher's name already transcribed as such. Do this

in addition to recording the number alone in 028; set 2

indicator to 0 in this case.

For reprint scores, optionally record the plate number(s) pertaining to the original

manifestation in 028 (1

indicator 2). Do this in addition to formulating a structured or

unstructured description of the related manifestation (see 27.1). If this description includes the

plate number(s), set 028 2

indicator to 0.

For multipart notated music resources, apply the LC-PCC PS for the optional addition at

2.15.1.5, that is, follow each plate number by a qualifier indicating the unit(s) to which it refers.

Chapter 3. Describing Carriers

3.1.4. Resources Consisting of More Than One Carrier Type

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, observing the following approaches.

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers: Follow method 1a or 1b.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 score (xxxii pages) ; $c 30 cm + $e 1 audio disc

(4 3/4 in.)

300 1 score (xxxii pages) ; $c 30 cm

300 1 audio disc ; $c 4 3/4 in.

Audio/video carriers with accompanying volume (insert, booklet, etc.): Generally follow method

3, that is, consider a booklet inserted in an audio/video carrier to be of “little bibliographic

importance.” Optionally, if the accompanying volume is substantial in content and/or extent,

follow method 1a or 1b.

EXAMPLES:

500 Song texts with English translations from Yiddish

and Hebrew (4 unnumbered pages) inserted in container.

300 1 audio disc ; $c 4 3/4 in. + $e 1 volume (4

unnumbered pages ; 12 cm)

344 $3 Audio discs $a digital $2 rda

347 $3 Audio discs $a audio file $b CD audio $2 rda

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

3.2. Media Type

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Record media type associated with the primary

content of a resource in all cases.

If feasible, record media type associated with any accompanying material that is described in

300 $e or in a separate 300, as follows. Record multiple instances of media type in separate 337

fields.

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers: Encode in 337 and 007/00.

Audio/video carriers with accompanying volume (insert, booklet, etc.): Encode in 337.

If deemed useful for identification or selection, specify the carrier to which the term refers in

337 $3.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 audio disc (48 min., 17 sec.) ; $c 4 3/4 in.

300 1 videodisc (1 hr., 3 min., 25 sec.) : $b color ; $c

4 3/4 in.

337 audio $2 rdamedia $3 audio disc

337 video $2 rdamedia $3 videodisc

3.3. Carrier Type

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record carrier type associated with any accompanying

material that is described in 300 $e or in a separate 300, as follows. Record multiple instances

of carrier type in separate 338 fields.

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers: Encode in 338 and 007/01.

Audio/video carriers with accompanying volume (insert, booklet, etc.): Encode in 338.

If deemed useful for identification or selection, specify the carrier to which the term refers in

338 $3.

3.4. Extent

See Chapter 3 Appendix for guidance on recording extent terms, carrier types and other

elements for specific types of audio recordings.

3.4.1.3. Recording Extent

MLA recommendation: Generally do not apply the alternative in a shared cataloging

environment, that is, do not use a carrier term in common usage (e.g., "1 CD", "1 DVD-ROM").

3.4.1.4. Extent--Exact Number of Units Not Readily Ascertainable

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the optional omission.

3.4.1.7.1. Number of Subunits--Computer Discs, Cartridges, Etc.

audio files.

3.4.1.7.4. Number of Subunits--Microfiches and Microfilm

MLA recommendation: Routinely specify number of subunits for notated music content.

3.4.1.7.5. Number of Subunits--Online Resources

MLA recommendation: Routinely specify number of subunits for notated music content and

audio files.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

3.4.3. Extent of Notated Music

For resources consisting of more than one type of unit, separate each type by space-“+”-space.

Alternatively, encode extent for scores and parts in separate 300 fields.

EXAMPLES:

300 1 score (73 pages) + 5 parts

300 1 score (3 volumes) + 4 parts (3 volumes)

300 1 score (3 volumes) + 12 parts

505 0_ v. 1. Sonatas 1-5, two violins and basso continuo (1

score + 3 parts) -- v. 2. Sonatas 6-9, two violins, violone

and basso continuo (1 score + 4 parts) -- v. 3. Sonatas 10-

12, two violins, viola, violone and basso continuo (1 score

+ 5 parts).

Each volume includes a separate set of parts, for a total of 12 parts.

Note that the RDA definition of “score” includes music for a solo performer.

3.4.5.3. Extent of Text--Single Volume with Unnumbered Pages, Leaves, or Columns

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Use the appropriate extent term for notated music

instead of “volume”.

EXAMPLES:

300 1 score (1 unnumbered leaf)

300 1 score (1 volume (unpaged))

3.4.5.8. Extent of Text--Complicated or Irregular Paging, Etc.

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Use the appropriate extent term for notated music

instead of “volume”.

EXAMPLES:

300 1 score (various pagings)

300 1 score (10, 9, 10, 8, 10 pages)

300 1 score (2 volumes (various pagings))

In AACR2, music for a solo performer was described as “p. of music”, “leaves of music” or “v. of music”.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

3.4.5.14. Extent of Text--Single Sheet

This instruction does not apply to notated music. Describe notated music on a numbered single

sheet as “1 leaf” if only one side is numbered or as “2 pages” if both sides are numbered. If the

sheet is unnumbered, describe it as “1 unnumbered leaf” if there is printing on one side or as “2

unnumbered pages” if there is printing on both sides. However, note that the carrier type (see

3.3) for a single sheet of notated music is still “sheet”.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 vocal score (1 unnumbered leaf)

3.4.5.17. Extent of Text--Continuously Paged Volumes

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the optional omission.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 score (2 volumes (588 pages))

3.4.5.18. Extent of Text--Individually Paged Volumes

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the optional addition.

3.4.5.20. Extent of Text--More than One Sheet

MLA recommendation: Do not apply this instruction to notated music. Describe notated music

on multiple unbound sheets by combining an extent term with the number of leaves or pages,

as appropriate. However, note that the carrier type (see 3.3) for multiple sheets of notated

music is still “sheet”.

EXAMPLES:

300 1 part (3 leaves)

300 1 score (5, 5 leaves)

3.5. Dimensions

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, record dimensions in all cases.

See Chapter 3 Appendix for guidance on recording dimensions and other elements for specific

types of audio recordings.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

3.5.1.6. Resources Consisting of More Than One Carrier

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

Apply the exception for notated music by encoding dimensions of each carrier after the extent

of that carrier, either in separate occurrences of 300 $c and $a, respectively, or in separate 300

fields.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 score (15 pages) ; $c 43 cm + $a 23 parts ; $c 32

300 1 score (15 pages) ; $c 43 cm

300 23 parts ; $c 32 cm

If giving separate 300 fields, give dimensions of each unit in $c, even if they are the same.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 score (8 pages) ; $c 30 cm

300 1 part (3 pages) ; $c 30 cm

3.6. Base Material

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record base material for certain types of audio carriers.

See Chapter 3 Appendix for guidance on recording base material and other elements for

specific types of audio recordings.

3.7. Applied Material

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record applied material for certain types of audio carriers.

See Chapter 3 Appendix for guidance on recording applied material and other elements for

specific types of audio recordings.

3.9.2. Production Method for Manuscript

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record production method for manuscripts of notated music.

EXAMPLE:

500 Printout.

340 $d printout $2 rda

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

3.10.2. Generation of Audio Recording

MLA recommendation: If feasible, record generation of audio recording for certain types of

audio carriers.

Chapter 6. Identifying Works and Expressions

Introduction

The guidelines and encoding examples below generally pertain to authority records for

individual works, unless otherwise indicated. For authority records representing compilations of

works (e.g., “Piano music”) or classes of expressions (e.g., “Kartinki s vystavki; arranged”), MLA

recommends encoding only those elements which pertain to all works/expressions that can be

represented by that access point.

MLA recommends recording all elements that are readily ascertainable when creating or

enhancing authority records for individual works.

In most cases, however, these guidelines are equally applicable to bibliographic records for

manifestations embodying a single work/expression. The recording of work/expression

attributes in separate MARC fields (i.e., encoding data in fields 046 and 380-384 in addition

to formulating access points) in bibliographic records is largely a matter to be decided by

individual cataloging agencies.

The utility of such fields, and the feasibility of encoding them,

depends on the presence of authority records for the relevant works and/or expressions and

the number of works embodied within a resource, respectively.

Consult the Descriptive Cataloging Manual, Z1. Name and Series Authority Records for general guidelines in

encoding data in authority records.

Library of Congress’s practice is described here.

6.2.2.9.2. Recording the Preferred Title for a Part or Parts of a Work—Two or More Parts

MLA recommendation: Generally follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative. If deemed useful for

identification or access, also give separate access points for individual movements, arias, etc.

embodied in the resource.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, $d 1756-1791, $e composer.

6.3. Form of Work

MLA recommendation: If giving form of work as a component of an access point (i.e., preferred

titles consisting of the name of one or more type of composition), routinely also record form of

work in a 380 field. For other works, record form of work separately in a 380 field if readily

ascertainable. Prefer controlled vocabulary such as LCSH. For consistency, capitalize the first

term.

EXAMPLES:

100 1_ Bach, Johann Sebastian, 1685-1750. $t Masses, BWV

234, A major

380 Masses $2 lcsh

110 2_ Green Day (Musical group). $t American idiot

(Musical)

380 Musicals $2 lcsh

100 1_ Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, Felix, $d 1809-1847. $t

Hebriden

380 Overtures $2 lcsh

100 1_ Shepherd, Adaline, $d 1883-1950. $t Pickles and

peppers

380 Ragtime music $2 lcsh

When terms do not come from a controlled vocabulary, use a singular form.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Bartók, Béla, $d 1881-1945. $t Sonatinas, $m piano

$n (1915)

380 Sonatina

N.B. This is separate from encoding genre/form terms in 650/655 fields, though these two activities may

eventually be harmonized. Genre/form vocabulary recommended for use in RDA will eventually reside in the

forthcoming music portion of Library of Congress Genre/Form Terms for Library and Archival Materials (LCGFT).

For more information, see http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/genremusic.html.

6.4. Date of Work

MLA recommendation: Record date of work as a data element in 046 $k (and $l as appropriate)

if readily ascertainable

. See 6.28.1.9.1 and 6.28.1.10.1 for instructions on giving date of work

as a component of an access point (i.e., to distinguish two works with the same preferred title).

EXAMPLES:

046 $k 1947

100 1_ Antheil, George, $d 1900-1959. $t Sonatas, $m piano,

$n no. 3 (1947)

046 $k 1927 $l 1928

100 1_ Thomson, Virgil, $d 1896-1989. $t Four saints in

three acts

046 $k 1884 $l 1889

100 1_ Puccini, Giacomo, $d 1858-1924. $t Edgar

Composed 1884-1889; revised 1889-1892; revised 1905.

6.5. Place of Origin of the Work

MLA recommendation: In authority records for works, record place of origin of the work in 370

$g if readily ascertainable. Record country or local place within a country, as appropriate.

EXAMPLES:

100 1_ Peterson, Marvin Hannibal. $t Dear Mrs. Parks

370 $g United States

100 1_ Cavalli, Pier Francesco, $d 1602-1676. $t Calisto

370 $g Venice (Italy)

See http://www.loc.gov/standards/datetime/ for guidance on inputting dates using the Extended Date Time

Format.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.9. Content Type

MLA recommendation: In addition to recording content type for the primary content, record

content type(s) associated with any substantial accompanying material that is described in 300

$e or in a separate 300, as follows. If deemed useful for identification or access, record content

type(s) associated with accompanying material that is described in 500 note.

Books or scores issued with audio/video carriers: Encode in a separate 336 field. Also encode a

006 field.

EXAMPLE:

006 jsynn############n

336 text $2 rdacontent

336 performed music $2 rdacontent

Audio/video carriers with substantial accompanying volume of text (insert, booklet, etc.):

Encode in a separate 336 field.

EXAMPLE:

336 performed music $2 rdacontent

336 text $2 rdacontent

If a score contains significant textual matter (e.g., critical commentary, libretto, preface), record

“text” in a separate 336 field. Do not record “text” in a separate 336 field merely to represent

words which underlay the notated music.

For resources with multiple carrier types, if deemed useful for identification or selection,

specify the carrier to which the term refers in 336 $3.

EXAMPLE:

300 1 audio disc (48 min., 17 sec.) ; $c 4 3/4 in.

300 1 videodisc (1 hr., 3 min., 25 sec.) : $b color ; $c

4 3/4 in.

336 performed music $2 rdacontent $3 audio disc

336 two-dimensional moving image $2 rdacontent $3

videodisc

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.10. Date of Expression

MLA recommendation: Generally do not record date of expression in a 046 field, in either

bibliographic or authority records. In bibliographic records for scores, the date of expression

can be inferred from the date of publication and/or copyright date. In bibliographic records for

audio recordings, date of expression is usually equivalent to date of capture (see 7.11.3).

6.10.3. Recording Date of Expression

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.11. Language of Expression

MLA recommendation: Routinely record language for the following linguistic content:

1) Text underlying printed music (scores) (008/35-37, 041 $a, 546)

2) Sung or spoken text (audio recordings) (008/35-37, 041 $d, 546)

3) Text presented separately (e.g., librettos) (041 $e, 500 or 546)

4) Subtitles (041 $j, 546)

5) Language of accompanying text (e.g., critical commentary, program notes) (041 $g, 500

or 546)

If readily ascertainable, also record:

1) Original language of printed, sung or spoken text (041 $h, 500)

2) Original language of text presented separately (e.g., librettos) (041 $n)

3) Original language of accompanying text (041 $m)

Routinely encode language in 008/35-37 and 041 as applicable. Optionally, explain the language

content in a 546 and/or 500 field as appropriate (see mappings given in the list above), if

deemed useful for identification or selection.

6.11.1.3. Recording Language of Expression

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.13. Identifier for the Expression

MLA recommendation: If feasible and readily ascertainable, record an International Standard

Recording Code (ISRC) associated with a specific audio recording, in a bibliographic record.

EXAMPLE:

024 0_ BRBMG0300729

6.14.2.2. Preferred Title for a Musical Work—Sources of Information

A list of commonly-used reference sources is available here. There is no priority order of

reference sources, and the most appropriate source(s) to consult will vary based on the work.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.14.2.4. Recording the Preferred Title for a Musical Work

MLA recommendation: For pre-twentieth century works, normally consider phrases such as "a

due," "a cinque" to be statements of medium of performance and not part of the title as

defined in this instruction.

For pre-twentieth century works with titles such as Duo concertant, Quartetto concertante (but

not titles naming a form, such as Sinfonia concertante, Rondeau concertant, etc.), consider the

word "concertant" or its equivalent to be an adjective or epithet not part of the original title of

the work, and omit it from the preferred title.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Vanhal, Johann Baptist, $d 1739-1813. $t Quartets,

$m strings, $n op. 1

Title: Six quatuors concertantes : a 2 violons, alto et basse, oeuvre 1.

6.14.2.5. Preferred Title Consisting Solely of the Name of One Type of Composition

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. To determine whether the title in question meets the

condition of the instruction, i.e., whether it is a generic type of composition, consult the

alphabetical list at Types of Compositions for Use in Music Uniform Titles or other reference

sources. Do not consider such titles as "Double concerto," "Tripelkonzert", etc. to be names of

types of compositions.

When a composer uses a word which is normally the name of a type of composition as the title

of a work which is definitely not a work of the type designated by the word, do not consider the

title to be the name of a type of composition.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Poulenc, Francis, $d 1899-1963. $t Aubade

Title: Aubade : concerto chorégraphique pour piano et 18 instruments.

A title consisting of two words, each of which alone would be the name of a type of

composition, may in combination produce a distinctive title. Generally treat such a compound

title as a distinctive title.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Nielsen, Carl, $d 1865-1931. $t Humoreske-bagateller

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.14.2.7. Recording the Preferred Title for a Part or Parts of a Musical Work

MLA recommendation: When the number of a part of a work is used in the preferred title of the

part, precede the number by the abbreviation "No." ("No," "Nr." "N.," etc.) when such an

abbreviation, or the corresponding word, appears with the numbers of the parts in the source

on which the preferred title is based, or when the number appears alone there. In the latter

case give the abbreviation in the language of the preferred title of the work. If any other term

appears with the numbers of the parts, give it as it appears in the source on which the

preferred title of the part is based. Use Arabic numerals.

6.14.2.8.3. Compilations of Musical Works--Works of Various Types for One Broad Medium

MLA recommendation: Use only those conventional collectives titles for the types of works

listed in the instruction.

6.14.2.8.4. Compilations of Musical Work--Works of Various Types for One Specific Medium

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Use only medium terms established in Library of

Congress Subject Headings (LCSH).

6.14.2.8.5. Compilations of Musical Works--Works of One Type for One Specific Medium or

Various Media

MLA recommendation: To the extent possible, use names of types of compositions given in

Types of Compositions for Use in Music Uniform Titles. If none of those is suitable, use an

appropriate a genre/form term (e.g., Motion picture music, Incidental music). As the titles listed

in RDA show, use an English-language form if one is available.

6.14.2.8.6. Compilations of Musical Works--Incomplete Compilations

MLA recommendation: Generally follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative. If deemed useful for

identification or access, also give separate access points for all individual works embodied in

the resource.

Medium of performance vocabulary recommended for use in RDA will eventually reside in the forthcoming

Library of Congress Medium of Performance Thesaurus for Music (LCMPT).

6.15. Medium of Performance

MLA recommendation: If recording medium of performance as a component of an access point,

routinely also record medium of performance as a separate element, in a 382 field. For other

works, record medium of performance in a 382 field if readily ascertainable.

EXAMPLES:

100 1_ Call, Leonhard von, $d 1767-1815. $t Serenades, $m

flute, viola, guitar, $n op. 5, $r C major

382 0_ flute $n 1 $a guitar $n 1 $a viola $n 1 $s 3

piano $n 1 $a violin $n 1 $a viola $n 1 $a cello $n 1 $a

bass $n 1 $s 8

N.B. This is separate from giving medium performance as components in subject headings in 650 fields (e.g.,

“Violin and piano music”). Medium of performance vocabulary recommended for use in RDA will eventually reside

in the forthcoming Library of Congress Medium of Performance Thesaurus for Music (LCMPT), and the

aforementioned LCSH practice will be made obsolete.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

In authority records for works, record the original medium of performance as specified by the

composer. If the composer specifies alternate mediums, give the medium in the authorized

access point as specified by LC-PCC PS 6.18.1.4, and record all alternatives in a 382 field.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Boulanger, Lili, $d 1893-1918. $t Nocturne, $m

violin, piano

382 0_ violin $p flute $n 1 $a piano $s 2

Title: Nocturne pour violon ou flute et piano.

If recording medium of performance in a 382 field in a bibliographic record, record the medium

of performance corresponding to that particular expression.

EXAMPLE:

100 1_ Forsyth, Josephine, $d 1889-1940, $e composer.

240 10 Lord's prayer; $o arranged

382 0_ soprano $n 1 $a alto $n 1 $a organ $n 1 $s 3

Originally for solo voice; arranged for duet.

6.15.1.4. Medium of Performance--Instrumental Music Intended for One Performer to a Part

Note that there is no limit to the number of medium elements recorded, either as components

of access points or in 382 fields.

6.15.1.5. Medium of Performance--Standard Combinations of Instruments

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.15.1.6. Medium of Performance--Individual Instruments

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.15.1.6.2. Medium of Performance--Omit Elements

MLA recommendation: If deemed useful for identification or access, record specific ranges of

instruments, etc. in a note (see 7.21).

In AACR2, medium statements in uniform titles were restricted to three components. In LCSH, medium

components are restricted to nine.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.15.1.9. Medium of Performance--One or More Solo Instruments and Accompanying

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.15.1.11. Medium of Performance--Choruses

Examples of other commonly-used terms are:

children's voices

equal voices

treble voices

6.15.1.12. Medium of Performance--Accompaniment for Songs, Lieder, Etc.

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.16. Numeric Designation of a Musical Work

MLA recommendation: If giving numeric designation as a component of an access point,

routinely also record that numeric designation in a 383 field. For all works, record all numeric

designations that are readily ascertainable in separate 383 fields.

EXAMPLES

100 1_ Badings, Henk, $d 1907-1987. $t Concertos, $n no. 3

383 no. 3

100 1_ Zender, Hans. $t Hölderlin lesen, $n no. 1

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.16.1.3.1. Serial Number

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

EXAMPLES:

100 1_ Schneider, Enjott, $d 1950- $t Symphonies, $n no. 3

383 no. 3

Title: Chinesische Jahreszeiten : Sinfonie Nr. 3 fr Alt, Sheng und Orchester (2007).

6.16.1.3.2. Opus Number

MLA recommendation: As the RDA examples show, use “op.”, “no.”, and Arabic numerals.

6.16.1.3.3. Thematic Index Number

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Note that there is no restriction on thematic index

numbers that may be used in variant access points or 383 fields.

6.17. Key

MLA recommendation: If giving key as a component of an access point, routinely also record

key in a 384 field. For other works, record key separately in a 384 field if readily ascertainable.

EXAMPLES:

100 1_ Beethoven, Ludwig van $d 1770-1827. $t Sonatas, $m

piano, $n no. 23, op. 57, $r F minor

384 0_ F minor

100 1_ Dahl, Adrian, $d 1864-1935. $t Melankoli

384 0_ A♭ major

6.17.1.3. Recording Key

MLA recommendation: Follow the same criteria for recording the mode (“major” or “minor”) as

for recording the pitch center, that is, if pitch center is given or apparent, but mode is not,

record only the pitch center. Follow the RDA examples, and record the symbols ♯ and ♭rather

than the words “sharp” and “flat”, respectively.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.18. Other Distinguishing Characteristic of the Expression of a Musical Work

MLA recommendation: If giving other distinguishing characteristic as a component of an access

point, routinely also record other distinguishing characteristic in a 381 field.

6.18.1.4. Arrangements, Transcriptions, Etc.

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

6.27.1.3. Authorized Access Point Representing a Work--Collaborative Works

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

6.27.1.4. Authorized Access Point Representing a Work--Compilations of Works by Different

Persons, Families, or Corporate Bodies

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

6.27.1.9. Additions to Access Points Representing Works

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. A common case in music is when a soundtrack to a

motion picture (that is a compilation of works by different persons or bodies) bears the same

exact title as the motion picture. In this case, follow “Monographs”, section 3(b) of the LC-PCC

PS, and use the qualifier “Motion picture music”. Add additional qualifiers (e.g., date) if further

conflict exists.

6.27.3. Authorized Access Point Representing an Expression

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, which refers to 6.28.3 for musical expressions.

6.28.1. Authorized Access Point Representing a Musical Work

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

In order to construct an authorized access point representing a musical work, the creators of

the musical work must be known. In order to determine the creators for a musical work, apply

the instructions at 19.2.1.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

6.28.1.5.1 Categories of Adaptations of Musical Works

Apply category d) to album compilations (audio recordings) only when each component work in

the compilation is itself an adaptation by the performer or performers (see 19.2.1). The mere

fact that a performer is prominently named in a resource is not sufficient justification for

deeming that his or her performance involves substantial creativity for adaptation,

improvisation, etc. at the album level. If the above criterion does not apply, and in cases of

doubt, apply 6.27.1.4 and identify the album compilation by title.

6.28.1.9. Additions to Access Points Representing Musical Works with Titles That Are Not

Distinctive

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

Consult Thematic Indexes Used in the Library of Congress/NACO Authority File or the LC Name

Authority Record for the composer

to determine which numbering scheme is preferred for

use in authorized access points. Prefer thematic index numbers to opus and serial numbers

when an entry for the composer in this list indicates that the thematic index number is for use

in authorized access points. If neither this list nor the authority record for the composer gives

sufficient guidance, consult the LC Name Authority File and bibliographic file (in that order of

preference) to determine if a pattern exists for authorized access points for works by that

composer. If no guidance or pattern is available, use whichever numeric designation is readily

ascertainable. However, do not add a serial number and/or opus number if a thematic index

number is added.

6.28.2.3. Authorized Access Point Representing a Part or Parts of a Musical Work--Two or

More Parts

MLA recommendation: Follow alternative only if giving separate access points for the individual

parts is not feasible.

Chapter 7. Describing Content

7.2. Nature of the Content

MLA recommendation: Make a note describing the genre/form of one or more of the works or

expressions embodied in the resource if deemed useful for identification or access (i.e., if the

work or expression is not adequately described by the title or by using appropriate genre/form

or subject headings).

Notes may be constructed stating both genre/form and medium of performance (see 7.21),

especially if compilations of diverse works can be thus described more concisely than by giving

the elements separately.

EXAMPLES:

500 Comic intermezzo in 2 acts.

500 Motet for soprano solo and orchestra.

500 The 1st work a pantomime with music, for solo voices

(ST), chorus (SATB), 4 pianos, and percussion; the 2nd work

a concerto scenica for solo voices, chorus and orchestra.

7.7. Intended Audience

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. If applying this element, routinely encode 008/22.

Additionally, make a note in a 521 field if deemed useful for identification or selection.

EXAMPLES:

008/22 j

521 1_ 2-9.

521 8_ Parental advisory, explicit content.

7.9. Dissertation or Thesis Information

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, routinely record dissertation or thesis

information.

7.9.1.3. Recording Dissertation or Thesis Information

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

7.11. Place and Date of Capture

MLA recommendation: For audio and video recordings, routinely record place and date of

capture if readily ascertainable, in a 518 field. If feasible, also record place and/or date of

capture in a 033 field.

EXAMPLES:

033 00 19640920 $b 4364 $c L8

518 $o Recorded in concert $p Shrine Civic Auditorium,

Los Angeles, CA $d 1964 September 20.

518 $o Recorded $d 2010 August 22-28 $d 2011 April 23 $p

5th Studio of the Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting

Company, Moscow, Russia.

If recording multiple places of capture in 033, encode a separate field for each place (along with

associated dates). Encode multiple dates within one 033 field as either a range or, if feasible,

separately.

If an audio recording contains more than one work, and the individual works were captured on

different dates and/or in different locations, record the information for each work or group of

works in a separate 518.

EXAMPLE:

033 10 19921201 $a 19921202 $b 5754 $c L7

If readily ascertainable, also record:

1) Original language of printed, sung or spoken text (041 $h, 500)

2) Original language of text presented separately (e.g., librettos) (041 $n)

3) Original language of accompanying text (041 $m)

Routinely encode language in 008/35-37 and 041 as applicable. Optionally, explain the language

content in a 546 and/or 500 field as appropriate (see mappings given in the list above), if

deemed useful for identification or selection.

useful for identification or selection.

7.15.1.3. Recording Illustrative Content

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS for the alternative.

7.16. Supplementary Content

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. Note that “monographs” means all resources issued

monographically, including scores and audio recordings. For audio recordings, this includes

bibliographies and indexes found in accompanying inserts and booklets, since those form part

of the resource.

7.16.1.3. Recording Supplementary Content

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

7.20. Format of Notated Music

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. This element is incorporated into extent of notated

music (3.4.3). In addition, encode this element in 008/20 or 006/03 (“Format of music”) and

008/21 or 006/04 (“Music parts”) as appropriate.

7.21. Medium of Performance of Musical Content

MLA recommendation: Apply this element when the medium of performance is not adequately

described by the title or by using controlled vocabularies.

Potential applications include, but

are not limited to:

 Specific choral parts (e.g., SATB)

 Key and/or range of specific instruments

 Original medium of work of which an arrangement is being cataloged

 Alternative medium specified in the resource

 Presence/absence of figured bass and realization of a continuo part

“Hybrid” notes may be constructed stating both genre/form (see 7.2) and medium of

performance, especially if compilations of diverse works can be thus described more concisely

than by giving the elements separately.

EXAMPLES:

500 Motet for soprano solo and orchestra.

500 The 1st work a pantomime with music, for solo voices

(ST), chorus (SATB), 4 pianos, and percussion; the 2nd work

a concerto scenica for solo voices, chorus and orchestra.

19.2.1.1. Basic Instructions on Recording Creators--Scope

In general, do not consider the performance of musical works in a compilation to be covered by

the conditions in paragraph 3.

Persons and families who are performers may only be considered creators if they composed the

work they perform or if, according to paragraph 4, they are responsible for modifying a

previously existing work in a way that substantially changes the nature or content of the

original and results in a new work. The mere fact that a performer is prominently named in a

resource is not sufficient justification for determining this fact. For corporate bodies that are

performers, see 19.2.1.1.1.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

19.2.1.1.1. Corporate Bodies Considered to Be Creators

A corporate body that is a performer must fulfill the criteria of condition e) in order to be

considered a creator. Consider that a performing group meets these criteria when:

1) the group performs a work entirely by means of improvisation

2) it has been determined that a work has been composed or adapted (see 19.2.1) by the

group (e.g., when an original work is credited to the group on the resource).

The mere fact that a performing group is prominently named in a resource is not sufficient

justification for determining this fact.

Use the following decision tree to determine the form of the authorized access point for the

work (whether a single work or an album compilation):

Is a performing group involved?

If so, can it be considered a creator per category e?

If the answer is yes, apply 6.27.1.2 or 6.28.1.5.2 and record the group as the

preferred name portion of the authorized access point representing the work,

coded in the 110 field (with the preferred title in the 240 or 245 field) or in the

710 field

If the answer is no…

Are there performers that are persons or families involved? If so, is the

work an adaptation that falls into 6.28.1.5.1, category d?

If the answer is yes, consider the person or family a creator per

19.2.1.1, 4

paragraph, apply 6.28.1.5.2 and record the person or

family as the preferred name portion of the authorized access

point representing the work, coded in the 100 field (with the

preferred title of the work in the 240 or 245 field) or in the 700

field

If the answer is no, the work has not been adapted. If the work is

a compilation, apply 6.27.1.4 and identify the compilation by title.

If the work is not a compilation, use the authorized access point of

the original work to identify it.

20.2. Contributor

MLA recommendation: If feasible, give access points for all arrangers, solo performers,

conductors, and performing ensembles. Generally do not give access points for the members of

a performing ensemble if already giving an access point for the ensemble.

EXAMPLES:

110 2_ Majorstuen (Musical group), $e composer, $e

prominently name a person or corporate body known as a performer, give access points for the

person or corporate body without a relationship designator.

24.4.1. Identifier for the Related Work, Expression, Manifestation, or Item

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS, that is, generally provide access points when

referencing related works and expressions, and structured or unstructured descriptions when

referencing related manifestations and items. Identifiers are not used to express such

relationships in the current MARC environment.

24.5. Relationship Designator

MLA recommendation: Generally give relationship designators for all works and expressions for

which access points are given.

Best Practices for Music Cataloging – version 1.0, 2/21/14

Chapter 25. Related Work

25.0. Purpose and Scope

MLA recommendation: Generally follow LC-PCC PS for musical works. Optionally, give access

points for three or more related works (in the categories given) if deemed useful for

identification or access.

25.1. Related Work

MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. In bibliographic records for compilations, give access

points for all works/expressions contained in the resource if feasible.

If giving access points

for some but not all works/expressions, give preference to those that are prominently named

and/or form a substantial part of the resource.

For other types of related works, generally give access points in the following common

situations, if feasible and readily ascertainable:

1) Literary or artistic work that formed the inspiration for a musical work (see LC-PCC PS

25.0)

2) Musical work upon which a derivative musical work is based (e.g., a work used as the

basis for a set of variations)

Alternatively, give structured or unstructured descriptions instead of, or in addition to the

access point(s).

It has historically not been regarded as feasible to follow this practice for genres outside of Western art music.

This guideline generally pertains to bibliographic records; however, these methods may also be employed in

authority records for works.

multiple discrete reproductions, optionally give structured descriptions of each original if

feasible, instead of or in addition to giving a bibliographic history note.

Note that under RDA, a reproduction (whether published or not) is to be cataloged as such. Under AACR2/LCRI,

unpublished reproductions were cataloged as the original publication, with a note describing the reproduction.

Mendelssohn Bartholdy.

Discussion

The medium of performance, key, and number are considered to be part of the

title proper because the title is a type of composition (see RDA 2.3.2.8.1). Since

“Op. 20” is linguistically neutral, it has been included as part of the title proper.

For the parallel title proper, RDA 2.3.3.4 applies since a statement of medium of

performance, key, date of composition, and/or number is being treated as part

of the title proper and the statement is in more than one language. Even though

just the key is in multiple languages, it can be considered as a parallel title

proper.

Discussion

The medium of performance, key, and number are considered to be part of the

title proper because the title is a type of composition (see RDA 2.3.2.8.1). Since

“K 427” is linguistically neutral, it has been included as part of the title proper.

For the two parallel titles proper, RDA 2.3.3.4 applies since a statement of

medium of performance, key, date of composition, and/or number is being

treated as part of the title proper and the statement is in more than one

language.

For the transcription of the parallel statement of responsibility naming H.C.

Robbins Landon, the name has been repeated because it is intended to be read

twice (see RDA 1.7.7).

Discussion

In ISBD presentation, when more than one element within a single area is

recorded in two or more languages, the elements in the same language are given

together using appropriate preceding punctuation for each element within that

language. The subsequent language groups are preceded by space = space (see

ISBD Consolidated

A.3.2.9). The statement of responsibility is recorded after all

the parallel data because it has no other language forms (see ISBD Consolidated

1.4.5.10.3). For the parallel title proper of series, “Philharmonia” is repeated

because it is intended to be read more than once (see RDA 1.7.7).

Discussion

The medium of performance, key, and number are considered to be part of the

title proper because the title is a type of composition (see RDA 2.3.2.8.1). Since

“op. 56” is linguistically neutral, it has been included as part of the title proper.

In ISBD presentation, when more than one element within a single area is

recorded in two or more languages, the elements in the same language are given

together using appropriate preceding punctuation for each element within that

language. The subsequent language groups are preceded by space = space (see

ISBD Consolidated A.3.2.9). This justifies the presentation of the all the German

titles together, followed by the English titles. The statements of responsibility

follow all the parallel titles since it is not possible or would be difficult to put the

statements of responsibility with each corresponding title grouping (see ISBD

Consolidated 1.4.5.10.2)

For the transcription of the parallel statement of responsibility naming Bernard

van der Linde, the name has been repeated because it is intended to be read

twice (see RDA 1.7.7). The same is also true of the transcription of the parallel

title proper of series.

Discussion

In general, ISBD favors that languages are grouped together when there is

parallel data across elements within the same area (see ISBD Consolidated

A.3.2.9). It appears that one could group the German language elements of the

title proper and other title information together, followed by the English titles.

However the presence of “BWV 128” presents a problem since it has no parallel

form. Should it follow after all the parallel title statements, but before the

statement of responsibility or should it be given after the parallel title proper,

but before the other title information in German, which would then be followed

by the other title information in English? Unfortunately ISBD is silent on this

specific situation. However, RDA 2.3.4.3 does say that “if more than one element

of other title information is recorded, it should be recorded in the order

indicated by the sequence, layout, or typography of the elements on the source

of information.” This provides enough justification to place “Kantate zum Fest

Christi Himmelfahrt für Soli (ATB), Chor (SATB), 2 Oboen, Oboe d'amore, Oboe da

caccia, Trompete, 2 Hörner, 2 Violinen, Viola und Basso continuo” directly after

“BWV 128,” thus separating the presentation of the title proper and parallel title

proper from the other title and other parallel title information.

the authors.

520 "In the Heights is an exciting musical about life in Washington

Heights, a tight-knit community where the coffee from the corner bodega

is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries

the rhythm of three generations of music. During its acclaimed Off-

Broadway and Broadway runs, In the Heights became an audience

phenomenon and a critical success. It's easy to see why: with an

amazing cast, a gripping story, and incredible dancing, In the Heights

is an authentic and exhilarating journey into one of Manhattan's most

vibrant communities. And with its universal themes of family,

community, and self-discovery, In the Heights can be enjoyed by people

of all ages and backgrounds. Among the musical's many accolades are two
