I've been working on this one for a while now. This is based on the composer and chorus master AR discussions we had during Clean up CSG, a proposal (which stalled out) from Lukas 3 or so years back, another stalled proposal (from symphonik) from 2 or so years back, a conversation with alastairp (plus others) in #mb-dev a few weeks back, plus the recent bandleader discussion.
Taking just about any *musical* position one artist could hold with an artist, I've boiled it down to 10 ARs, describing a position of some sort that 1 person artist had or held with another artist, of group type (in 6 cases), person type (in 3), or of either type (1 AR): * Bandleader Position Relationship Type * Choirmaster Position Relationship Type * Concertmaster Position Relationship Type * Conductor Position Relationship Type * Instrument Instructor Position Relationship Type * Manager Position Relationship Type * Music Director Position Relationship Type * Road Crew Position Relationship Type * Teacher Position Relationship Type * Vocal Coach Position Relationship Type I'm still working on the wording for 5 of them, but here's the 5 I've pretty much finished, if anyone wants to start throwing out problems to be fixed prior to RFC. :) http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Music_Director_Position_Relationship_Type_Proposal http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Bandleader_Position_Relationship_Type_Proposal http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Teacher_Position_Relationship_Type_Proposal http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Vocal_Coach_Position_Relationship_Type_Proposal http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Instrument_Instructor_Position_Relationship_Type_Proposal Plus an additional attribute on http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Proposal:Supporting_Musician_Relationship_Type_Proposal There's 5 positions I know of which I've not tried to handle, as they all seem more like Location-Artist ARs to me, should we ever get Locations... Artist-in-residence Conductor-in-residence Composer-in-residence Concert Producer Music Supervisor When done, the 10 ARs should cover: Artistic Director Bandleader Bandmaster Choirmaster Concertmaster Conductor Director musices Director of Bands Director of Music Festival Conductor Festival Conductor First Chair Kapellmeister Leader Manager Music Director Organist and Master of the Choristers Répétiteur Roadie Road Manager Teacher (all sorts) Tour Manager Vocal Coach ...plus any valid variations on the above (Emeritus, assistant, associate, etc).
