You should in particular try to standardise the names of composers, but if editing the database in muso, it can help with this since it contains a large roster of known composer names, for use in the Edit Tracks window. You can edit this composer roster and add any names that are missing, along with their birth, death, and homeland. This allows you to filter and browse hierarchically by '''classical period''' (it matches their "productive" years - 20 to death - to an editable list of periods) and their '''homeland''' (country of birth). So for example it's quick & easy to find albums with music by Czech composers, then limit those to the late Romantic period. | You should in particular try to standardise the names of composers, but if editing the database in muso, it can help with this since it contains a large roster of known composer names, for use in the Edit Tracks window.

Muso will still display work & parts as headers & sub-headers, and just the movement in the track detail in album views. | Muso will still display work & parts as headers & sub-headers, and just the movement in the track detail in album views. | ||
