Hi list,
Easter time is Bach passion time for me - especially since the flu
prevents my family from going skiing :(
So, I just spent the last hours adding a new recording of the St.
Matthew Passion.
This has 101 tracks played in about 161 minutes, and 25 tracks are less
than half a minute, 13 last for less than 15 seconds. Because of this,
it's imperative that the most important parts of the movement title
sticks out properly from the track titles.
So, I thought, how can this best be done?
I ended following the booklet, and the tags provided by the label (it's
a download). In the process I radically downplayed the common stuff that
we pad the titles with (work names and part indication), and ended up with:

(reference: http://www.linnrecords.com/recording-matthew-passion.aspx)
Now I don't want to start another quarrel, and I didn't really want to
start another discussion on keeping out the WorkName from titles just
yet, but I had time to add this now, so....
thoughts?
