Introduction


Instructions located in RDA 6.14
General rules for capitalization, form of numbers, diacritics,
initial articles, spacing of initials and acronyms and
abbreviations in preferred titles located at 6.2.1

Capitalization instructions allow for the recording of unusual
capitalization


six bucks for anabelle's firetruck
Initial articles


Default position: record initial articles
Alternative: omit initial articles, unless the title is to be accessed under
that article


Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg BUT
Los Angeles Street concerto
Introduction

Punctuation reflects the usage of the source of the
preferred title
 On
resource: Requiem in/for C
 Preferred
 On
title: Requiem in/for C
resource: Sunny side [of my soul] up
 YES:
Sunny side [of my soul] up
 NO: Sunny side (of my soul) up
 On
resource: What is it? …what is it not?
 YES:
What is it? …what is it not?
 NO: What is it? --what is it not?
Choosing the Preferred Title

Sources of information (6.14.2.2)
After 1500: Resources embodying the work or reference
sources
 Before 1501: Modern reference sources, or, failing that, use
in this order: modern editions, early editions, ms. copies


Choosing (6.14.2.3)
Composer’s original title in the language in which it was
presented
 Exceptions for

Better known title in the same language
 Long titles
 Numbered sequence (the Eroica exception)

Recording the Preferred Title

Manipulation (6.14.2.4)

Remove

A statement of medium of performance

Consider a due, a cinque or equivalent phrases in pre-twentieth
century works to be a statement of medium
Key
 Serial, opus, and thematic index numbers
 Numbers (unless an integral part of the title)
 Date of composition
 Adjectives and epitaphs not part of the original work title



Consider the word concertant or its equivalent in pre-twentieth works
to be an adjective, etc. if paired with a word denoting the number
of instruments or voices, e.g. Duo concertant, Quartetto concertant
Sonata no. 3 for cello and piano in A major, op. 69
Recording the Preferred Title

Transformation (6.14.2.5)
For preferred titles consisting solely of the name of one
type of composition
 Record “in a language preferred by the agency creating
the data” and in the plural, unless the composer wrote only
one work of that type

No longer using “cognates” as in AACR2
 Record the accepted form of name in English (LC-PCC PS
6.14.2.5)






Konzert = Concertos
Lieder = Songs
Gesänge = Songs
Morceaux = Pieces
Stücke = Pieces
Recording the Preferred Title

Best Practices recommendations

If a composition has a preferred title of a type, but the
work is not of that type, do not consider it a type of
composition.
La valse : poème chorégraphique pour orchestre / Maurice Ravel
 Preferred title: Valse NOT Waltzes

Do not consider titles such as “Double concerto” or
“Tripelkonzert” to be types of composition
 Compound titles consisting entirely of types should be
treated as distinctive titles

Humoreske-bagateller
 Consists of two types, but in this case “Humoreske” is modifying
“bagateller,” so treat as a distinctive title

Recording the Preferred Title

No RDA instruction for “Trio sonatas”
 May
be used as a type title, but only if resources
embodying the work or reference sources use the term
or its equivalent in other languages
 Triosonate,
D-Dur, für zwei Violinen und Basso continuo
(1701) = Trio sonatas BUT
 Sonate, F-Dur, für Flöte, Violin, und Basso continuo (1705) =
Sonatas

another musical expression access point of the same type
 Identifying attributes of a musical expression may be recorded as
separate data elements within a resource description in order to
uniquely identify a expression

the medium of performance is rewritten for
another


No LC-PCC PS exists for this like the extensive LCRI

arranged if instrumental work re-written for
vocals or vice versa

Use the designation arranged
Added Accompaniments (6.28.3.3)


Authorized access point for the work is used with no
alterations
LC-PCC PS details how subject access should be
provided for works with added accompaniments
Sketches (6.28.3.4)


Same instruction as AACR2 25.35B
Add Sketches in curved brackets to the authorized
access point for the work
Vocal and Chorus Scores (6.28.3.5)


Same instruction as AACR2 25.35D
Use the Glossary definitions
Vocal score: A score showing all vocal parts, with the
instrumental accompaniment either arranged for
keyboard(s) or other chordal instrument(s) or omitted.
 Chorus score: A score of a work for solo voices and chorus
showing only the parts for chorus, at least in those portions
of the work in which the chorus sings, with the instrumental
accompaniment either arranged for keyboard(s) or other
chordal instrument(s) or omitted.


Use the appropriate term in the singular for an
individual work, in the plural for a compilation of works
Translations (6.28.3.6)



Only one language per access point
May not use Polyglot
RDA instructs that if a resource contains multiple
language expressions of the same work, to create
separate expression access points for each
language expression
 But
this approach has significant problems, due to the
fact that the original language of expression is implied
in the authorized access point for the work
Example of Problem (6.28.3.6)
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro [implied language:
Italian]
Expression Access Points for a score of Figaro in Italian and English:
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro. Italian
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro. English
But the bibliographic file looks like:
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro. English
Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, 1756-1791. Nozze di Figaro. Italian
LC-PCC PS for 6.28.3.6

Only add the language to a work authorized access point when the
language is different from the original language expression of the
work
