=The Classical Style Guidelines=

=Track Titles=

Classical track titles should be entered as they are on the liner, following normal [[MusicBrainz]] style guidelines, with the exceptions listed here.

If the liner contains any typos, please correct them in the track title.

If the liner misidentifies what work is actually on any track, please then note in a track annotation how the liner identified the work, but correctly identify it in the actual title.

If each track's title is presented in multiple languages, only one should be used, and whichever one is chosen should be used consistently for all tracks.

Tracks should be titled so as to be as informative as possible, per what is on the liner, without over-normalizing the titles such that they no longer represent what is on the liner.

Example:

If the liner presents this:

Concerto for Piano and Orchestra<br/> No. 9 in E flat major K 271<br/> "Jeunehomme"<br/> 1. Allegro<br/> 2. Andante<br/> 3. Rondo: Presto

Then the track titles should be entered as:

1. Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 9 in E-flat major K 271 "Jeunehomme": Allegro<br/> 2. Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 9 in E-flat major K 271 "Jeunehomme": Andante<br/> 3. Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 9 in E-flat major K 271 "Jeunehomme": Rondo: Presto

and NOT as:

1. Allegro<br/> 2. Andante<br/> 3. Rondo: Presto

Please note that it is quite common for the outside cover to only include limited identification information due to space limitations. Please check inside the booklet to ensure that you are providing as informative a track title as possible.

===Examples of vocal music===

'''Les nuits d'été, op. 7'''<br/> 2. '''Le spectre de la rose.'''<br/> Adagio un poco lento e dolce assai<br/>

Enter as:<br/> 2. Les nuits d'été, Op. 7: 2. Le spectre de la rose. Adagio un poco lento e dolce assai<br/> <br/> ''Same movement on another release:''<br/>

'''LES NUITS D'ÉTÉ, OP. 7'''<br/> 2. Le spectre de la rose (Alt)<br/>

Enter as:<br/> 2. Les nuits d'été, Op. 7: 2. Le spectre de la rose (Alt)

===Example for liner with multiple languages===

'''Tři moteta pro smíšený dvojsbor a cappella,''' op. 110<br/> Drei Motetten for double-chorus a cappella, Op. 110<br/> 1. Ich aber bin elend [Já pak ztrápený jsem] (Žalm 69)<br/>

Enter as:<br/> 1. Drei Motetten for Double-chorus a cappella, Op. 110: 1. Ich aber bin elend
* ''Note that we do not translate multiple languages within a title into one; both English & German in this example''
* ''Also note that if the release exists in a different language than what's on your cover, you must create a new release; don't change the language on the release that has already been entered into MB''

==Capitalization==

Capitalization should follow standard capitalization for the language, with these exceptions:
* "major" or "minor" should always be lowercased, regardless of what language is used.
* "No." and "Op." should always have the first letter capitalized, regardless of what language is used.
* Opera libretto titles should always follow sentence style, no matter the language.

==Abbreviations==

[[Abbreviation Style|AbbreviationStyle]] should be followed. However, the following should remain abbreviated:
* No.
* Nr.
* Op.
* Composer work list identifiers (WwO, K, BWV, etc.)

==Keys==

Keys should be properly capitalized and hyphenated for the language, no matter how they appear on the liner. A table with all the keys and their correct capitalization in commonly used languages can be found at the bottom of this page.

==Punctuation==

Standard ASCII punctuation should always be used for the space , the full-colon :, the semi-colon ;, the hyphen-minus -, single quotation marks ' ', double quotation marks " ", parenthesis ( ), square braces [ ], commas ,, periods ., and all other punctuation.

If French CSG is being used, the additional punctuation spacing rules of [[Capitalization Standard French|CapitalizationStandardFrench]] also apply.
