That fails as soon as we want to mark up something like:
Simon Rattle conducted the CBSO in a marvellous rendition of
Beethoven's Fifth
or:
Simon Rattle conducted a marvellous rendition of Ma Vlast
or:
EMI are pleased to announce a new downloadable version of the
Beatles' 'Sgt Pepper...'
or:
EMI are pleased to announce a new downloadable version of 'Sgt
Pepper...'

That can certainly be said. However, it cannot be expressed in hAudio
without requiring the publishers of such examples to re-order their
content. It is a microformats "principle" to not do so.

Your conclusion is not supported by the forgoing claims.

If we used *only* 'artist', perhaps, but not if we used 'artist' *AND*
'composer' + 'technician'.
