Titled works

The title of a work should be recorded in MB as it exists in print from a reliable source, such as a recent urtext edition. Adding to or altering a title given by the composer should be avoided.

Catalogue numbers

As we currently have no field for catalogue numbers & those are an important part of identifying a work, the standard catalogue is added to the title.

Examples:

• Carmen
• An den Mond D 468
• Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben BWV 147
• „Wie unglücklich bin ich nit“ K. 147 (125g)
• Gymnopédie No. 1
• Москва, Черемушки, Op. 105
• L'oiseau de feu

Aliases

For titled works, use only if the work is known under a different name.

Translated works

Translated works are already distinct works in (non-CSG) MB, as they need a new relationship (translator) that doesn't apply to the parent one.
