orchestra and vocalist are sometimes combined into artist or performer, one could then speak of the title-performer-date triplet.

In cases of triplet-equal music performances the triplet is not enough to identify a performance. Additional information to ID a single performance then may be:

  • Matrix number
  • More precise time of performance
  • An example audio track, or a reference to such, e.g. a TINT

Suggested solution: disambiguate such performances by including an arbitrary sequence number. Chrisjjj 21:17, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
