  • artist read release or track
  • release or track was read by artist

[edit] Description

This describes speech done on whole releases or just tracks that is done by a reader. A reader simply reads texts. Normally this applies to Audio Books. Note that this is different from a narrator who narrates a story. A reader reads the spoken parts of stories whereas in a narration they are normally spoken by others. For a narrator use Narrator Relationship Type.

This Advanced Relationship Type is part of the Performance Relationship Class. It is a special case of Speaker Relationship Type.

[edit] Relationship Attributes

[edit] "additional" and "guest"

There is no guideline yet how the additional and the guest flag might be used for "read" relationships. (Additional Relationship Attribute and Guest Relationship Attribute)

[edit] Examples

Jim Dale read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (feat. reader: Jim Dale) (disc 1)

Monty Arnold read Dunkel (feat. reader: Monty Arnold) (disc 1)

[edit] Proposed Definition

This is how it would be implemented for artist--track:

 reader (1)

    * forward: {additional:additionally} {guest} read
    * reverse: was {additional:additionally} {guest} read by
    * description: Indicates an artist reading a text on this work.
    * attributes: additional=0-1 guest=0-1

And for release-artist:

 reader (1)

    * forward: was {additional:additionally} {guest} read by
    * reverse: {additional:additionally} {guest} read
    * description: Indicates an artist reading a text on this work.
    * attributes: additional=0-1 guest=0-1
