Use of Relationships for soloists
This performance has two orchestras and three choruses. Members of each group sometimes come forward to perform as soloists, in addition to performing as part of their group. There are six vocal soloists: Evangelist, Jesus, Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass. My policy in crediting soloists is:
- For tracks with music, credit whichever of the six vocal soloists are audible, and whichever of the orchestras and choruses are standing or downstage or otherwise prominent as solo players.
- For the tracks at the start of Part I and Part II, credit those of the six vocal soloists who are visible on stage, as well as the orchestras and choruses.
- For the bows and applause track at the end of Disc 2 ("Abspann"), credit the orchestral soloists who are singled out by the conductor, as well as the soloists who are standing downstage of the orchestra and choruses.
Peter Sellars is stage director for this semi-staged production. He is credited for "Ritualization", and named on the cover of the Release. I make him a Release Artist. I name him with a "Performer" Relationship for the final "Abspann" track, because there's no "Stage Director" Relationship.
Use of Relationships is a bit odd, because this is a video Release with visuals as well as audio, and the current portfolio of Relationships really describe only audio, and non-performer support roles.
The intention for Recording Artists is to include orchestra, conductor, chorus if they appear, any of the six vocal soloists who appear, and any instrumental soloists who are credited by Relationship. There are many tracks, and this work is incomplete.
