Hi everyone,

Hoping I could get some advice on a music score I am currently cataloguing in 
RDA.

My score is a concerto for Vibraphone and Percussion ensemble. The program 
notes written in the score include two poems by Pablo Neruda (written in 
English) and the statement “The two-movement work draws inspiration from two 
opposing poems by Pablo Neruda that depict night and day”. The poems do not 
form any part of the actual music of the score (so would not be performed as 
they are neither narrated or sung). Whilst they will not be part of any 
performance of the score I want to make reference to Neruda as the poems were 
considered significant enough inspiration to the composer that their text was 
printed in the program notes. My questions are


1.       Am I correct in my assumption that Neruda’s work/inspiration should be 
recorded in the record as a related expression?

2.       Is a name title 700 entry (see below) the best way to do this?

3.       Is the relationship designator I have used from Appendix J (J 2.2) of 
the toolkit the appropriate one given that the text does not form part of the 
actual work? (i.e. it’s not a libretto) -  ‡i musical setting of (work). If not 
what is the alternative?


100 1     ‡a Daughtrey, Nathan ‡e composer.

240 1 0  ‡a Concertos, ‡m vibraphone, percussion ensemble
245 1 0  ‡a Concerto for vibraphone & percussion ensemble / ‡c Nathan Daughtrey.
500        ‡a "The two-movement work draws inspiration from two opposing poems 
by Pablo Neruda that depict night and day." -- Program notes.

700 1 2  ‡i musical setting of (work) ‡a Neruda, Pablo, ‡d 1904-1973. ‡t Poems. 
‡k Selections. ‡l English.

Apologies in advance if my questions are a bit too basic for the forum but I am 
fairly new to cataloguing. Thanks for any guidance you can offer.


Kind regards
