I have been waiting for the answer for this question too. A string of $e composer,$e performer or $e adapter? Thanks.

Also, one correction: on p. 23, I think 261 is supposed to be 264? Thanks. Nancy On 2/11/2013 7:15 AM, Casey A Mullin wrote: [Cross-posted widely.

Re: [RDA-L] Best Practices for Music Cataloging using RDA and MARC21
There appears to be a contradiction between the following two instructions: 2.3.1.7. Title Proper--Titles of Parts, Sections, and Supplements MLA recommendation: Follow LC-PCC PS. EXAMPLES: 245 00 Musical theatre for classical singers. $p Soprano (p. 8) AND 2.5.2. Designation of Edition The most common designations of edition in music resources fall into category g), 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.

Re: [RDA-L] Best Practices for Music Cataloging using RDA and MARC21
Regina-- in this instance the examples for 2.3.1.7 and 2.5.2 are correct. In the 1st, the Musical theatre for classical singers has unique contents for each of the voices; the volume for alto (as well as the ones for mezzo, tenor and bass/baritone) contains a completely different repertoire than that for the soprano. Thus, it is different from, as in the 2nd example, an edition for Tenor of the same music, set for a different voice range in a different edition. I hope this helps clarify what seems to be a contradiction, but isn't.
