Interestingly and rather extraordinarily, this could also catch out conductors, as they are categorised as performers. They are of course silent performers, or perhaps not so silent because, like producers, they mould the sound you hear. They are performers, and very important ones, who again are not given the same performance rights—although every performer who contributes to the recording is important. On that point, we need to properly respect the contribution that jobbing musicians and session musicians make to a recording, whatever their nationality.
