Thank you everyone for your responses, they were very helpful.

One further question if I may. There seems to be some confusion between where 
these relationship designators are positioned. In my example, as well as Andra 
Patterson’s and Adams the relationship designators are positioned at the 
beginning of field i.e.

700 12 ‡i Contains (expression): ‡a Neruda, Pablo, ‡d 1904-1973. ‡t Poems. ‡k 
Selections. ‡l English.

However, in the LC example link Daniel kindly provided the i subfield is 
positioned at the end i.e.

|a García Lorca, Federico, |d 1898-1936. |t Casa de Bernarda Alba. |i Based on 
(work):

Which is correct?

Kind regards

Siân

I agree with Andra that “Musical setting of (work)” is not appropriate because 
the Neruda poems have been used as an inspiration for the musical work but not 
actually set to music. A better designator would be “based on (work)” (in which 
case the access point(s) would not include the subfield $l) or “based on 
(expression)”, if you think that the composer drew his inspiration from the 
English translation of the poems and not from the original version. This LC 
record provides an example: http://lccn.loc.gov/2013560310. This record is also 
an illustration of LC policy regarding instrumental works that are based on, 
inspired by, etc., one or two literary works (see LC-PCC PS for 25.0 
http://access.rdatoolkit.org/document.php?id=lcpschp25#<http://access.rdatoolkit.org/document.php?id=lcpschp25>).

Hi Siân,

Here are  my thoughts, for what they're worth!

Yes, I think it is useful to record the relationship between Neruda's work and 
Daughtrey's concerto. This is recorded as a relationship to a related work 
(25.1) and it could be recorded as an unstructured description in the 500 
rather than in 500 and 700 (see the 2nd example in the final box of examples at 
25.1.1.3).

As you point out, the text of the poems does not form part of the work, so the 
relationship designator "musical setting of (work)" is not appropriate. Using 
an unstructured description to record the relationship eliminates the need for 
a relationship designator. You could record a whole-part relationship as a 700 
to record the fact that the poems are contained in the resource, using a 
relationship designator from J.3.4:

100 1     ‡a Daughtrey, Nathan ‡e composer.
240 10  ‡a Concertos, ‡m vibraphone, percussion ensemble
245 10  ‡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 12 ‡i Contains (expression): ‡a Neruda, Pablo, ‡d 1904-1973. ‡t Poems. ‡k 
Selections. ‡l English.

I apologise in advance if my thoughts are incorrect - I'm happy to be corrected!

Best wishes,
Andra

Subject: [RDA-L] Relationship designators for related expressions, works etc 
for a music score

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

Siân
