Before I start ripping my classical collection I would like to make sure
that I don´t mess this up. If you have the time to read through this and
comment on my regime I will be very grateful.

I try to follow the recommendations from the wiki
"BeginnersGuideToClassical".
I use the ARTIST tag for composer, and ALBUM tag for work:

ARTIST: Sergei Rachmaninov
ALBUM: Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2, in C minor / Rhapsody on a
Theme of Paganini - Ashkenazy - London Symphony Orchestra - Previn

The Wiki states that: "A common strategy for the file name is to have
it match the "title" tag as taggers find it easy to copy one to the
other." 
I´ve chosen not to follow this advice, because I want to use roman
numerals for movement number (Musicbrainz ClassicalStyleGuides), but
not in the filename to make sure they are played in the right sequence.


TITLE: Piano Concerto No. 2: I. Moderato

I add the following tags for future use: CONDUCTOR, COMPOSER, BAND,
OPUS, PERFORMER (is there a maximum number of similar tags, or can this
include several artists?), LABEL and WORK.

Have I missed something crucial?


When it comes to directory structure I cannot seem to make up my
mind...

I tried /music/composer/album/track but what to do with Yuri Bashmet
playing Schubert Schumann Bruch and Enesco? File under Various Artists
of performer? Or should I break up the album and file under composer
and work?

Thanks in advance!
