Tango.info music performance
Definition of "performance" in tango.info, related to http://www.tango.info/performances
Each performance entry corresponds to a group of tracks that have the same
- title,
- orchestra,
- vocalist(s) and
- performance date (or no performance date).
orchestra and vocalist are sometimes combined into artist or performer, one could then speak of the title-performer-date triplet.
NOTE: By this definition, a performance entry can include,multiple performances, e.g. in one case of two Canaro performances recorded with same orch/vocalist on same day (detail needed). Suggested solution: disambiguate such performances by including an arbitrary sequence number. Chrisjjj 21:17, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
