Composer and Performer

[Mike_O_Neill]

I go to Artist, filter horo get Vladimir Horowitz

I see 5 albums that he COMPOSED , arranged stuff for

I have 26 , last count where he is the performer. There is no Composer/ Performer toggle as per 1.7 that I can find

I see the Discography , but all Tidal, clicking the Library Book icon I see the same 5, 21 missing …

Big oops ?

When I search for Vladimir Horowitz and select it I get a page with him as artist and composer and when I click on Discographie I get 179 hits for main albums (with Tidal) and when I click on compositions I get 10 pieces not albums.

Strange!

I’m seeing the same. Looks like a bug to me… @support - care to take a look?

Searching for “Dinu Lipatti” shows a Composer with that Name but no Artist with that name. When going to the Composer “Dinu Lipatti” Roon does not show me the albums I have locally in my library.

So I can display this album “Klavier Kaiser: 11” and when I click on “Dinu Lipatti” right below the Album name, there is no album from my library shown.

Maybe my workaround is good for you:

Album is not displayed for an artist

As a workaround I changed “Dinu Lipatti” in the artist editor “is classical composer” from YES to NO. That worked out for me. I now see my local albums and also see the compositions under the compositions tab. One minor annoyance though: In order to change the “is classical composer” item, I have to first change in the artist editor the preference from “Prefer Roon” to “Edit” and chose “Yes”. Then click Save. Then enter the artist editor again and change to “No” below “Edit”. If I do this al…

Still this should be fixed on Roon’s side on the long term.

Never even knew that was there , maybe it’s new

Works for Wilhelm Kempff, maybe an issue with Actual Composer/performers like Bernstein You will lose one or the other, in the Kempff example he transcribed a few bits of Bach , not too worrying
