Cantores Amicitiae

Real name: *fictitious name*

This is for mislabelled "Cantores Amicitiae" use ONLY (i.e., where the chorus name is used fictitiously). It is best to state explicitly in the notes that this is the case.

The practice of bogus choruses using established names is more likely to occur on fly-by-night labels, where the conductor is a relative unknown. Established labels employing musicians on a session-by-session basis, rather than giving a false credit, would generally invent an orchestra name which sounds respectable and established, but does not really exist, e.g. Vienna Festival Orchestra. Doubtful conductors, probably indicating a bogus credit, include George Richter, Henry Adolph, Moshe Nussbaum, Helmut Bucher and Alfred Scholz.
