Interpretation:

Consider the form and medium of performance of a musical work (or collection of musical works) as given in the uniform title in the main entry as well as from the description in determining whether to make a note.

 

Option Decision:

Do not apply the optional provision of the rule.

 

In giving the names of players in nonmusic sound recordings, caption the note "Cast."  Add the roles or parts of players, if deemed appropriate, in parentheses after the name (cf. 7.7B6).

 

Do not make the note "Analog recording" or "Digital recording."

Durations:

If the individual works in a collection are identified in the title and statement of responsibility area, list the durations of the works in a note.  If the individual works are listed in a contents note (6.7B18), give their durations there.

In a statement of duration in the note area, separate the digits representing hours, minutes, and seconds by colons.  If a duration is expressed in seconds only, precede it by a colon.

500 ## $a Duration: 45:00.

500 ## $a Duration: 1:25:00; :48; 15:10.

500 ## $a Duration: ca. 1:15:00.

500 ## $a Duration: ca. 27:00; ca. 17:00.

If only the durations of the parts of a work are stated (e.g., the movements of a sonata), add the stated durations together, if desired, and record the total for the work in minutes, rounding off to the next minute.

Precede a statement of duration by "ca." only if the statement is given on the item in terms of approximation.  Do not add "ca." to a duration arrived at by adding partial durations or by rounding off seconds.

If the duration of a work is not stated on the item or if the durations of some but not all of the parts are stated, do not give a statement of duration for that work.  Do not approximate durations from the number of sides of a disc, type of cassette, etc.

LC practice:  Follow the guidelines stated above modified as follows:

Generally do not give more than six statements of duration in the note area.  If durations of more than six works in a collection are available from the item, generally do not give any durations in the note area.  More than six durations may be given, however, if in the cataloger's judgment they are especially important.

Containers:

Give a note on the presence of container(s) only when the number of containers is not clear from the rest of the description.

See also LCRI 6.5B2, LCRI 6.5B1.

 

Make notes on accompanying program notes and/or inserts, only if they are important.

 

Transcribe titles in a contents note from the source in the item being cataloged that provides the best identification.  Use judgment in deciding what additional information to transcribe, taking into account the type of music and the length, complexity, and readability of the resulting note.

If the musical compositions in an item are all in the same musical form, and that form is named in the title proper of the item, do not repeat the form in the contents note (cf. 5.7B18).

Opus numbers or thematic index numbers may be added to the titles of individual musical compositions contained in an item if they are necessary to identify the compositions named (cf. 5.7B18, LCRI 5.7B18).

If two or more titles with statements of responsibility are being transcribed for one part of a multipart item, apply the punctuation conventions from 1.1G3 so that titles by the same person, body, etc., are separated by a space-semicolon-space and titles by different persons, bodies, etc., are separated by a period-space.  If no statements of responsibility are being transcribed, separate the titles with a space-semicolon-space in all cases.

In a bibliographic record for an item containing a single musical work or excerpts from a single musical work, use judgment in deciding whether to list the movements or other component parts of the work, as instructed in LCRI 5.7B18.

For multipart items, when the number of discographic units (often called "volumes" by publishers) differs from the number of physical units (e.g., discs) or containers, include when necessary the number of physical units or containers in the contents note.
