To the wisdom of the list:

I am working for a publisher who wants to name me as an engraver. He insists that it should say, in English:

Music setting by Johannes Gebauer

To me this sounds as though I set, ie arranged the music. All I did was the engraving, I had no part in the arrangement.

Shouldn't it say "Music Engraving by Johannes Gebauer"?


I agree with you. Even "Engraving by Johannes Gebauer" should be sufficient. "Setting" does sound like some kind of realisation or arrangement was done, if not actual composing, like setting a poem to music.
