(For piano, flute, oboe, trumpet, and trombone)
Do not use the phrases “string ensemble,” “wind ensemble,” etc., under this
rule. For groups of four or more different instruments from a single family, use
“strings,” “winds,” etc., as in the first example in the rule. But use the phrase “jazz
ensemble,” when appropriate.

Use the phrase "instrumental ensemble" as a statement of medium that is

not already provided for by other terms in the list.

Solo instrument(s) and accompanying ensemble
For an accompanying ensemble that has only one performer to a part, use the
word "ensemble" preceded by the appropriate qualifying term (e.g., "string ensemble,"
"jazz ensemble," "wind ensemble") as a statement of medium that follows the statement for
solo instruments in a uniform title.

Serial numbers
When a serial number to be used in a uniform title is accompanied in the
source on which the uniform title is based by a term such as “number,” “book,”
“collection,” etc., apply the following:
1) If the term is the English word “number” or its abbreviation, or
an equivalent word or abbreviation in another language, precede the number in the uniform
title by the English abbreviation “no.”
2) If the term is a non-English term not meaning “number” and the
initial title element is in English because of the application of 25.29A1, substitute the
English equivalent of the term.
3) In all other cases give the term as it appears in the source on
which the uniform title is based.
In cases (2) and (3) above do not abbreviate the term unless it is
abbreviated in the source, even if it is one for which an abbreviation is given in
Appendix B.
