Tango.info music genre

Each genre has a tango.info music genre id.

• tango.info musical work genre - as written on the scores
• tango.info music performance genre - as from the audio
• tango.info music track genre - currently derived from the performance, or from the publisher metadata

Currently tango.info applies some transformations:

• replace "-" with " "
• replace multiple contiguous spaces with one space
• remove leading or trailing spaces
• replace "arr." with "arreglo"

The resulting string only contains letters and spaces.

For matching in the DB accented letters and any other non ascii letter (e.g. ñ) is mapped to an ascii letter.

In URLs use "_" instead of " " and ascii letters.
