Definitely agree for the most part given how vast interpretation can be for classical pieces that sometimes don't get as much credit as they should.
That's because utaite songs are covers. If the instrument and the backing sound is literally the same, it's simply just a cover. This is not a case for live-performed songs (or rather, in this case, pieces), because it may be interpreted differently than what it would be by the composer.Nao Tomori wrote:
why only classical and not all utaite type things

If the song's original release isn't the recording by the original artist (such as classical music pieces), both Artist and Performer must be creddited with a `Artist (Perf. Performer)` notation in the Artist field.
I wouldn't be in support of this, mostly because there are many composers who perform their own music and the original release often times include the composer themselves as the performer alongside many others.Proposed RC wrote:

There is no set standard that I know of for classical music. The most typical ones I know about:Ephemeral wrote:
Do other services have a standard or generally consistent way of using this kind of performer-composer notation? We should probably try to use that if at all possible.
What about pieces where original composers are not known?Could do the same as currently when the artist isn't known, "Unknown Artist" - or maybe could use "Anonymous" / "Unknown Composer". I think such cases are quite rare in osu! so it could be considered when it happens.
This probably fits well enough under the existing "Unknown Artist" rule. Conversely it's also interesting to consider the opposite case ("Unknown Performer" could be a thing)pwhk wrote:
