If, however, the works are consecutively numbered, apply the second
paragraph of 25.34C3, adding the consecutive numbering to the title of the individual
works (in the singular). Do this even if the collection contains all of the composer’s
works with that title.

Selections
Ordinarily do not add a date of publication, etc., to the uniform title
"Selections" when it is used for collections of musical works by one composer.
However, when necessary (e.g., for PCC practice to keep series added entries
for an analyzable multipart item together and separate them from other collections with
the same uniform title), add a qualifier according to the fourth and fifth paragraphs of
LCRI 25.8-25.11 to the uniform title “Selections.”

Works of various types in one broad or specific medium, and works of
one type for one specific medium or various media
Keyboard Music
Use the uniform title [Piano music] (with “Selections” if appropriate) for
both (1) collections of music for one performer using two hands on one piano and (2)
collections of music for varying numbers of performers and/or varying numbers of hands on
one or more pianos. Apply the same principle to collections of music for other keyboard
instruments.
25.34C2:CSB108
Works of various types in one broad or specific medium, and works of
one type for one specific medium or various media
Apply this rule to collections containing trio sonatas and other sonatas,
using “Sonatas” in the uniform title.
For collections of music by a single composer for various motion pictures,
use the uniform title "Motion picture music" or "Motion picture music. Selections"
(without a statement of medium) instead of such uniform titles as "Orchestra music.
Selections."
For a collection of popular songs by a composer such as George Gershwin or
Cole Porter, normally use the uniform title “Songs. Selections” regardless of whether or
not some of the songs may have originally been intended for theatrical productions. If,
however, the item being cataloged provides clear evidence that all the songs in the
collection are from larger works of a single type, use the name of the type as the basis
of the uniform title (e.g., ”Musicals. Selections”)
