For a musical work with a title that is not distinctive, always record the applicable elements as additions to the authorized access point. When recording elements to differentiate the authorized access point of a work from the authorized access point of another work, person, family, or corporate body, always add one or more differentiating elements to the access point. Use judgment in deciding whether to also record these elements as separate elements and whether to record additional identifying elements (those not needed for differentiation) as separate elements.

For pre-twentieth century works, normally consider phrases such as "a due," "a cinque" to be statements of medium of performance and omit them when recording the preferred title according to this instruction.

Do not consider such titles as "Double concerto," "Tripelkonzert", etc. to be names of types of compositions.
 +
 +
When a composer uses a word which is normally the name of a type of composition as the title of a work which is definitely not a work of the type designated by the word, do not consider the title to be the name of a type of composition.
 +
 +

A title consisting of two words, each of which alone would be the name of a type of composition, may in combination produce a distinctive title. Generally treat such a compound title as a distinctive title.
 +
 +

Record the accepted form of name in French if the name has an French cognate form or if the same name is used in French.
 +
 +
'''Melody/Melodies'''
    +
When the French word "Mélodie" or "Mélodies," or their cognates in another language, is the title of a work that is not for solo voice and keyboard stringed instrument, consider it the name of a type of composition. Use the French form as the preferred title and add the medium of performance according to RDA 6.28.1.9.

'''One Work of One Type'''
 +
 +
When cataloging the first occurrence of a work of a particular type of composition by a composer, choose the preferred title as follows:
 +
# If the composer is deceased, consult reference sources to ascertain whether the composer wrote more than one work of that type, and use the singular or plural form as the preferred title according to the information found.
 +
# If the composer is living, choose the singular form of the type of composition as the preferred title unless the work being cataloged bears a serial number (including 1); in that case use the plural form on the assumption that the composer has written or intends to write more works of that type.
 +
 +
When cataloging the second occurrence of a work of a particular type by a composer, if the singular form has been used in the authorized access point for the first work of that type, revise the preferred title to the plural.
 +
 +
Remember that medium of performance is a separate element from the preferred title. If the composer wrote one piano sonata and one violin sonata, he or she wrote two sonatas, and therefore the plural form for the type of composition must be used as the preferred title.
 +
 +
'''Liturgical Words or Phrases'''
 +
 +
When the preferred title is a Latin liturgical word or phrase, record the title in the singular when the word or phrase is invariable (e.g., "Gloria," "Magnificat," "Requiem," "Salve Regina," "Te Deum"). Use the plural form (e.g., "Introïts") when appropriate. Generally, do not add the medium of performance in the authorized access point.
 +
 +
'''Tempo Markings with Modifying Words'''
    +
When the preferred title is a tempo marking with a modifying word or words (e.g., "Andante sostenuto," "Allegro con brio," "Moderato ma non tanto"), record it in the singular.

Use terms from the RVMMEM when possible. '''''Exception:''''' use "orchestre à cordes" for an orchestra consisting primarily of string instruments and no wind instruments (even when it may include continuo, keyboard instruments, plucked instruments, or percussion). Use "orchestre" for an orchestra that has both string and wind instruments.

Record a serial number even if works with the same title do not have the same medium of performance, if such works are consecutively numbered in music reference sources.
 +
 +
When recording a serial number that is accompanied in the source by a term such as "numéro," "livre," "collection," etc., apply the following:
    +
If the term is the French word "numéro" or its abbreviation, or an equivalent word or abbreviation in another language, precede the number in the preferred title by the French abbreviation "no."
 +
If the term is a non-French term not meaning "numéro" and the preferred title is in French because of the application of 6.14.2.5.1, substitute the French equivalent of the term, using an French abbreviation as instructed in appendix B (B.5.4).
 +
In all other cases give the term as it appears in the source using its abbreviated form as found in appendix B (B.5.4). If the term is not found in appendix B, give the term as it appears in the source
 +
 +
If no term appears with the number, give the number as a cardinal number and precede it by the French abbreviation "no."
 +
 +
Use Arabic numerals.

'''Revisions by the Original Composer'''
 +
 +
If a composer revises a work, retaining the original title and opus number, and the revision is one of a different instrumentation within the same broad medium (e.g., orchestre, ensemble instrumental, harmonie), do not consider the revision to be an arrangement. Use the same authorized access point for the original and the revision.

'''Alternative Instruments'''
 +
 +
Do not consider as arrangements the following uses of alternative instruments:​
 +
 +
# A work composed before 1800 for a baroque, renaissance, or other early instrument (viole de gambe, flûte à bec, etc.), or for voice, in a resource that is edited for or performed on a modern instrument or by an alternative voice, provided the key is unchanged and the notation has not been significantly changed.
 +
# A work for a melody instrument which is edited for or performed on an alternative instrument specified by the composer in first or early editions.
