Revision as of 18:46, 23 February 2011
This is an attempt at providing a translation of musical terms commonly found in track titles and release titles in different languages (list of languages non exhaustive, feel free to add columns). Very useful when trying to be consistent, when some disc sleeves are not (unappropriate use of movement type name, mix of different languages...).
Most of the translations are / may be taken from Wikipedia's "other languages" section.
