I know for sure that there is a guideline on which we have already
discussed this problem. The result was that this stuff should be ordered
by generality. The information that applies to most elements comes first.
Therefore

if the Timbuktu Philharmomics appear on all discs, it is
Big Works (Timbuktu Philharmomic feat. conductor Fred Nertz) (disc 1)

whereas if they appear on disc 1 only (and another orchestra on disc 2),
then it is
Big Works (disc 1) (Timbuktu Philharmomic feat. conductor Fred Nertz)

Unfortunately I cannot find this on the wiki anymore. I have searched all
guidelines that could be relevant, but have not found it. I would expect
it in ExtraTitleInformationStyle.

Does anyone of the elders remember the page and discussion I am talking
about?

Yes, http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/ReleaseTitle . Although I might be a
bit late with my reply ;)
