particular work should be. Although this page of explanation is very long, the process is normally very short, and you will often find it takes less than a minute to tag a page (sometimes much less, sometimes more). The tags begin with |Tags= and consist of two main elements: the "work type" and the "instrumentation", separated by spaces and a semi-colon " ; ". Here are some examples: <ul><li> |Tags=symphonies ; orch </li><li> |Tags=concertos ; pf orch </li><li> |Tags=minuets ; str </li><li> |Tags=sonatas ; vc pf </li><li> |Tags=operettas ; vv orch ; fr </li><li> |Tags=oratorios ; 2vv ch pf ; de </li></ul> You may have noticed that in the last two examples there is a third tag, indicating the language used in vocal works. Note that semi-colons are used rather than slashes, and no capital letters should be used in the tags. So let's start by looking at these in detail. <h2> Work Type</h2> The first element of the tag is the "work type", always given in the plural (so we use "symphonies" rather than "symphony"). Very often the type is contained in the work title, e.g. names of musical forms (sonata, symphony, concerto), tempo designations (adagio, allegro), and standard combinations of instruments (trio, quartet), and these can be identified very quickly. On the other hand there are works like Messiah or Le nozze di Figaro where the form of work is not obvious from the main title, but the composer has helpfully provided descriptions or subtitles so that we know these are oratorios and operas respectively. Sometimes there's no clarification in the score itself, and we might have to consult printed or online reference sources such as Grove for a definitive answer. It's also important to make sure that the types are always given in the same language, with the same capitalisation, according to the same rules (because "Part Song" and "partsong", for example, would be considered as different tags by IMSLP's software). So we need a standard glossary of terms that we can use. It so happens that music librarians have been grappling with these problems for years, and the list below owes much to the Music Library Association's list of Types of Compositions for Use in Music Uniform Titles <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="https://www.musiclibraryassoc.org/mpage/cmc_accpointsaacr2">[1]</a>, supplemented by other sources. The first column lists a variety of musical forms, both singular and plural, in various languages (indicated by standard two-letter codes <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes">[2]</a>). The second column (highlighted in green) indicates the standardised type that we should use, which are usually in the plural. You may then need to scroll further up or down the list to see any important notes accompanying its usage in the main entry (in bold type), e.g. that the term Anthems should only be used for choral works rather than for national anthems (which have their own distinct tag). <table class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size:90%; width: 98%; vertical-align: top; border: 1px solid #AAA"> <tr> <th

fugues", "romances ; songs", "waltzes ; scherzos". The only exceptions are those in the form of "Theme and Variations" or "Air and Variations", etc. which are all tagged just as variations). The tag should always describe the whole composition, and not the individual movements or sections within a work. With the exception of the double canons and double fugues, numbers or adjectives should be ignored when deciding on the work type, so that "Psalm XLIX" just comes under psalms, and a "Große Fugue" comes under fugues. Always use the work type designated by the composer, even if you think it must be wrong. Watch out for inaccurate translations or work page titles though! <h4> Summary</h4> When deciding on the "work type" of any composition, consider the following questions, in this order: <ol><li> Is the type indicated in the title? </li><li> Is the type indicated in the subtitle? </li><li> Is the type indicated anywhere else in the score? </li><li> Is the type indicated in any authoritative sources? </li></ol> If the answer to all these is "no", then you're very unlucky. But in these rare cases you should use "pieces" as the work type for the time being, and post a note in the forums or project discussion page to see if anyone can provide a more definitive answer. The same applies if you think you have the correct term but it doesn't appear in the table above, which doesn't claim to be completely comprehensive. Once you've found your standard work type, you can move on to the instrumentation ... <h2> Instrumentation</h2> Apart from the "work type", the other element of the work tag is the instrumentation. It's important to be clear that the work tag is not intended to duplicate the detailed data that is (or should be) already displayed in the general information box of the work page. Instead, the tag should summarise this information as concisely as possible, using a system of abbreviations for instrument names and families. These have to be standardized and used in a particular way so that they can be understood by IMSLP's software. But they have been designed to be straightforward to use, with a little practice. Again, do not give separate tags to individual movements or sections within a work. The tag should always describe the instrumentation of the whole work, in its original form, without considering any arrangements or transcriptions (but see also "special cases", below). <h3> Ensembles</h3> Larger works will have multiple performers playing the same instruments and sometimes performing identical parts. The largest of these ensembles is of course the orchestra, which includes instruments from the four main families of: woodwinds, brass, percussion and strings. So: <table class="wikitable" style="border:1px #AAA solid; valign=top; width:98%"> <tr> <th width="35%">Family </th> <th width="20%">Abbreviation </th> <th width="45%">Description </th></tr> <tr> <td> Orchestra </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> orch </td> <td> a work scored for standard complements of woodwinds, brass, percussion and strings </td></tr> <tr> <td> Woodwinds </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ww </td> <td> a work using woodwind instruments only </td></tr> <tr> <td> Brass </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> br </td> <td> a work using brass instruments only </td></tr> <tr> <td> Percussion </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> perc </td> <td> a work using percussion instruments only (unusual, but possible) </td></tr> <tr> <td> Strings </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> str </td> <td> a work using stringed instruments only </td></tr></table> Where two or three families of instruments come together to make a larger ensemble we can also combine some of these abbreviations using only a space (but note the reduced terms that are used for display): <ul><li> ww br (= woodwinds and brass instruments); this displays as "wind ensemble" </li><li> ww br perc (= woodwinds, brass and percussion); this displays as "wind band" </li><li> br perc (= brass and percussion); this displays as "brass band" (as does "br timp") </li><li> br perc str (= brass, percussion and strings); this displays as "For brass, percussion, strings" because it has not developed a standard name as the others have. </li><li> jzens (= woodwind, brass, rhythm section); this displays as "jazz ensemble", but use it where a specific instrumentation cannot be used. For example, if there is a lot of doubling (saxes moving to clarinets, trumpeters moving to flugelhorns), then the specific instrumentation will give more players than are actually playing, so this tag would be used. However, use specific instrumentation where possible. </li></ul> The families are always named in the same order (woodwinds; brass; percussion; strings), and do not have any capital letters in their codes. The reduced terms like "wind band", "military band", "brass band" and "chamber orchestra" are only display terms. What we code as the tag is the constituent families or instruments, e.g. a piece for wind ensemble could also be: <ul><li> ww perc (= woodwinds and percussion) </li></ul> Medieval and Renaissance ensembles: these are most often not written with specific instruments in mind, and different performers use different instruments when playing the same pieces. Sometimes we know that they were "probably" for a particular set of instruments, for example, where a composer was himself a viol player, a 4-part ensemble was probably meant for 4 viols. If it is more or less known what the instrumentation is, use specific instruments otherwise use: <ul><li> cnsrt; this displays as "consort ensemble" (this is only to be used for Medieval or Renaissance ensembles where the instrumentation is to be chosen by the performers) </li></ul> <h3> Solo instruments</h3> The names of individual instruments should be given if they are not playing as part of an ensemble. This can be in a chamber piece, playing with other soloists, or as a soloist in a concerto. Where a solo part involves "doubling" (e.g. a flute player who also has to play piccolo), then only the abbreviation for the main instrument is used, because adding both tags increases the number of players, which would then be inaccurate. For example, in an ensemble that uses flute (doubling piccolo), violin, viola, cello, the "fl vn va vc" tag will accurately give "4 players", whereas "fl picc vn va vc" will give 5 players, which will be inaccurate. <h3> Abbreviations for instruments</h3> For the purpose of tagging we need the instruments to be listed consistently in the same order, and with the same spellings (regardless of how they might appear in a particular score). The list below shows the most frequently-used solo instruments in the order they should be named in the tags, and the standard singular and plural forms of their names. This is not intended to be a comprehensive list of orchestral instruments — just the ones most likely to be used in the work tags. If you need to use any instruments that are not on the list, then if possible tag them with the appropriate instrument family name (woodwinds, brass, percussion, strings or keyboard) and bring this to the attention of the project co-ordinator. <table class="wikitable" style="border:1px #AAA solid; valign=top; width:98%"> <tr> <th width="30%">Instrument or family </th> <th width="15%">Abbreviation

</td></tr></table> <h3> Usage</h3> Spaces should only be used to separate instrument names, and the tag should not contain any additional spaces, semi-colons, dashes or any other punctuation. For example: <ul><li> "2vn" = 2 violins (not "2 vn") </li><li> "hn 2pf" = horn and 2 pianos </li><li> "vn pf str" = violin and piano playing as solo instruments, accompanied by with a string ensemble </li></ul> Different forms of the same instrument should be grouped together, e.g. "2hn" (not "bass hn and alto hn"), except where the is an existing tag for both instruments (e.g. "picc fl", not "2fl"). Any instruments that are marked ad lib. or 'optional' should be omitted, and a second tag created with the optional instruments included. The sequence of instruments within each tag must follow the sequence in the table above. <h4> Orchestral ensembles</h4> Use "orch" for a mixed ensemble of winds and strings (with more than one string player per part), with or without percussion; only include individual instruments in the tag if they are designated as soloists throughout (see Concertos below). So a small classical orchestra with one oboe, 2 horns and strings would still be "orch". The term "band" has a different meaning in different countries, so we avoid it here, and instead use these tags: <ul><li> "ww br" = wind ensemble (consisting of woodwind and brass instruments only) </li><li> "ww br perc" = wind band (woodwind, brass and percussion instruments) </li><li> "ww" = woodwind ensemble (no percussion or brass) </li><li> "br" = brass ensemble (no woodwinds or percussion) </li><li> "br perc" = brass band (no woodwinds) </li></ul> For an orchestra made up entirely of traditional Chinese instruments, use "cho". <h4> Concertos</h4> Normally the name of the solo instrument(s) comes before the ensemble. For example <ul><li> "pf orch" = solo piano with orchestra </li><li> "vn orch" = solo violin with orchestra </li><li> "vc str" = solo cello and string ensemble </li><li> "hn orch" = solo horn with orchestra </li><li> "vn vc pf orch" = solo violin, cello and piano with orchestra </li><li> "2hp, perc" = 2 harps with percussion </li><li> "2ob str" = 2 solo oboes with strings </li></ul> Note that for a concerto grosso, where individual instruments in an orchestra take their turns as soloists, the tag would still be "orch". <h4> Chamber/Instrumental works</h4> For small-scale works, where solo instruments are performing together as individuals instead of part of a group, all the instruments should be listed individually: <ul><li> "2vn va vc" = 2 violins, viola and cello (the standard string quartet combination) </li><li> "fl vn va vc" = flute, violin, viola and cello </li><li> "vn vc pf" = violin, cello and piano </li><li> "hn 2crt tba" = horn, 2 cornets, tuba </li><li> "ob 2hn 2vn va pf" = oboe, 2 horns, 2 violins, viola and piano </li><li> "cl bn 2vn va vc db" = clarinet, bassoon, 2 violins, viola, cello and double bass </li><li> "fl 2vn va vc 2hpd" = flute, 2 violins, viola, cello and 2 harpsichords </li></ul> Many baroque pieces include a part for "basso continuo" or "continuo" which can be played by unspecified combinations of instruments. This should be treated as a single instrument abbreviated to "bc" and placed at the end of the tag (e.g. "2vn va bc"). If it is unclear whether a work is intended for solo string instruments or for string ensemble, then both possibilities should be tagged. <h4> Choral Works</h4> Use the abbreviation "ch" for any chorus consisting of both male and female performers. Otherwise you should choose the appropriate term from the list below: <table class="wikitable" style="border:1px #AAA solid; valign=top; width:98%"> <tr> <th width="35%">Instrument or family </th> <th width="15%">Abbreviation </th> <th width="50%">Notes </th></tr> <tr> <td> Male chorus (men only) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> mch </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Female chorus (women only) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> fch </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Children's chorus (boys and/or girls only) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> cch </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Unison chorus </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> uch </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Mixed chorus (male and female) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ch </td> <td> </td></tr></table> The chorus should always be listed before any accompaniment, like this: <ul><li> "fch 2hn pf" = female chorus, 2 horns and piano </li><li> "cch orch" = "children's chorus with orchestra" </li></ul> However, if a piano accompaniment is intended for rehearsal only, the piano part should not be included in the tag. Instead, mention in the "Misc. note" for that specific edition that there is a piano part for rehearsal only. If it is unclear whether a work is intended for solo voices or for a chorus, then both possibilities should be tagged. <h4> Vocal Works</h4> Choose from the following terms for works involving solo voices (singular / plural): <table class="wikitable" style="border:1px #AAA solid; valign=top; width:98%"> <tr> <th width="35%">Instrument or family </th> <th width="15%">Abbreviation </th> <th width="50%">Notes </th></tr> <tr> <td> Voice </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> v </td> <td> use when the range of a single voice is not known or not specified </td></tr> <tr> <td> Voices </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> vv (double v) </td> <td> use when the ranges of multiple solo voices are not known or not specified </td></tr> <tr> <td> Equal voices </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> eq </td> <td> (e.g. "2eq") use when the range of two or more solo voices are equal but unspecified </td></tr> <tr> <td> Child's Voice/Children's Voices </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> cv </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Soprano/Sopranos </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> sop </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Mezzo-Soprano/Mezzo-Sopranos </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> mez </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Alto/Altos </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> alt </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Haute-contre </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> alt </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Countertenor </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> alt </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Tenor/Tenors </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ten </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Baritone/Baritones </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> bar </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Bass Baritone/Bass Baritones </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> bbar </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Bass/Basses </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> bass </td> <td> do not confuse with the instrumental double bass (db) </td></tr> <tr> <td> Narrator </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> nar </td> <td> for spoken dialogue parts only (e.g. Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf) </td></tr></table> If the range of a solo voice part is not specified then use either v (singular voice) or vv (2 or more voices) as required. Examples include: <ul><li> "2sop mez bar" = 2 sopranos, mezzo-soprano and baritone </li><li> "2mez 2bbar" = 2 mezzo-sopranos and 2 bass-baritones </li><li> "sop alt ten bass" = solo soprano, alto, tenor and bass voices </li><li> "4vv" = 4 unspecified solo voices </li></ul> List the solo voices before any choruses or accompaniment <ul><li> "4vv ch orch" = 4 voices, chorus, orchestra </li><li> "2sop fch pf" = 2 sopranos, female chorus, piano </li><li> "mez bar orch" = mezzo-soprano and baritone soloists with orchestra </li></ul> In the case of operas and operettas with many characters and solo parts it is not necessary to count the number of solo vocal parts. Just use "vv" for voices <ul><li> operas ; vv ch orch </li></ul> Although most operas and operettas are written for the above combination, there are significant exceptions, so make no assumptions! Language tags are usually required for vocal works (see below) <h3> Special Cases</h3> <h4> Alternative Instrumentation</h4> Some works include alternative parts for solo instruments approved by the composer, like the Viola or Violin Concerto No.2 by Anton Stamitz, where the solo instrument can be a violin, viola, or viola d'amore. In such cases more than one tag should be used, e.g.: <ul><li> concertos ; vn str ; va str ; vda str </li></ul> Occasionally a work can exist in two different forms, particularly where a piece for piano was later orchestrated by the composer, like Holst's suite The Planets (originally written for piano duet, but better known in the composer's orchestral version). This would be tagged as both: <ul><li> suites ; pf4h ; orch </li></ul> <h4> Open Scores/Unspecified Instruments</h4> In Renaissance (and some later) works, each individual voice of a polyphonic composition may be assigned a separate staff, which may only be labelled "soprano" or "canto" (if labelled at all), even though they are intended to be played on instruments rather than sung. This is known as "open scoring", and we have special tags to deal with this situation. For example: <ul><li> open 2sop bass (= for 2 treble parts and 1 bass part) </li><li> open alt 2ten (= for alto and 2 tenor parts) </li></ul> ... which would respectively appear in the categories: <ul><li> For open instrumentation (2 treble, bass) </li><li> For open instrumentation (alto, 2 tenor) </li></ul> For ease of use we retain the "sop alt ten bass" ranges in the tags, but the tag for "sop" would be converted to "treble" in the category description. Where we only have clefs, without any indications of ranges, the following guide should be used: <table class="wikitable"> <tr> <th>Clef</th> <th>Usual part name, or applicable voice range</th> <th>Preferred voice </th></tr> <tr> <td>G2</td> <td>Treble, also Triplum: these days usually sung by female Sopranos </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">sop </td></tr> <tr> <td>C1</td> <td>Canto/Cantus, or Discantus, Superius: Soprano </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">sop </td></tr> <tr> <td>C2</td> <td>Medius/Mean (also Cantus, Altus occasionally): might be more of a Mezzo-Soprano (Mez) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">sop (or alt) </td></tr> <tr> <td>C3</td> <td>Alto/Altus/Contratenor [altus] (also Tenor occasionally): usually sung by female Contraltos </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">alt </td></tr> <tr> <td>C4</td> <td>Tenor/Tenore: usually sung by male Tenors </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">ten </td></tr> <tr> <td>C5 = F3</td> <td>"low" Tenor or "high" Bassus: would be more of a Baritone (bar) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">ten (or bass) </td></tr> <tr> <td>F4</td> <td>Basso/Bassus [= Contratenor bassus]: Bass </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">bass </td></tr> <tr> <td>F5</td> <td>Bassus, usually a basso profundo: Bass </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC">bass </td></tr> </table> If some instruments are specified, but not others, then everything in the tag preceding the "open" would be treated as a normal instrument <ul><li> "sop open 2sop alt bass" = soprano voice with 4 unspecified instruments (2 of which are treble, 1 alto and 1 bass) </li></ul> If all else fails, and if it's not possible to identify the instrumentation at all, then use: <ul><li> open (= for 1 unspecified instrument) </li><li> 2open (= for 2 unspecified instruments) </li><li> 3open (= for 3 unspecified instruments), etc. </li></ul> <h4> Jazz or popular works</h4> <ul><li> Where a jazz or popular work has a specific instrumentation that can be tagged in the normal way, use the normal tagging system. </li><li> Jazz or popular works that only contain a leadsheet, which is a form of open instrumentation, can be tagged "ldsht". The important thing for a leadsheet is that it contains the chord symbols so that any instrument can improvise on the chord sequence. </li><li> You can also use "ldsht" if the instrument is only partially specific - e.g. oboe, violin, harmony 1, harmony 2 (where chords are provided). </li></ul> <h4> Works that do not necessarily involve musicians</h4> Finally, we have some contemporary works, perhaps more "performance art" than music, but the "players" are not using musical instruments. The normal tags cannot be used because they are displayed as, for example, "For 3 instruments". In a case where no musical instruments are used, the tag is "open non-music". The number of players is not tagged. This will display as "For performers not using musical instruments". <h4> Undetermined instrumentation</h4> If the instrumentation of the original work cannot be determined (because IMSLP has only arrangements, and not the original score), then the tag und may be used. This will place the work into the special category <a href="/wiki/Category:Works_with_undetermined_instrumentation" title="Category:Works with undetermined instrumentation">Works with undetermined instrumentation</a>, from which they can be removed when the original instrumentation is ascertained. <h2> Languages</h2> An extra tag is used to indicate the language of a vocal or literary work. This should consist of the standard 2-letter codes, some of the most common of which are shown below: <table class="wikitable" style="border:1px #AAA solid; valign=top; width:98%"> <tr> <th width="35%">Language </th> <th width="15%">Abbreviation </th> <th width="50%">Notes </th></tr> <tr> <td> Afrikaans </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> af </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Albanian </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> sq </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Anglo-Saxon </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ang </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Apache </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> apa </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Arabic </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ar </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Arabic (South Levantine) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> sjp </td> <td> Use for Palestinian Arabic and Jordanian Arabic </td></tr> <tr> <td> Aragonese </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> an </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Aramaic </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> arc </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Arapaho </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> arp </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Armenian </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> hy </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Australian (aboriginal) </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> aus </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Azerbaijani </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> az </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Basque </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> eu </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Bengali </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> ben </td> <td> Also known as "Bangla", but not to be confused with "Bangala"; see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_language" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Bengali language">Wikipedia article</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Bulgarian </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> bg </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td> Cantonese </td> <td bgcolor="#CCFFCC"> yue </td> <td> Also known as yue language.
