[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 173174, member: 49539"] MacMini, For lack of anything better, I have indeed adopted a "hybrid" solution, along the lines you suggest. Generally, if a classical album is dedicated to one composer, I put the composer's name in both the "Artist" and "Album Artist" tags. Only if the album contains material by different composers but is all by the same performer do I put the performer's name in the artist tags. For "composer" albums, I keep the soloist, choir and orchestra information in the comment tag at present. If I had a displayable composer tag, I wouldn't bother filling it for pop music, so it would be easy to filter it out to list music by composer. [/QUOTE]
