Problems

CD12, Johannes Passion: Artist credits on CD cover looks like: "Chamber Choir; Capella Savaria, Pál Németh". I have entered relationships for "Capella Savaria" and "Pál Németh", but I have no idea what is "Chamber Choir" — it's too generic name.

CD23, Italian Cantatas, Volume 1: Disc title in MB has a comment: "(Capella Savaria feat. conductor: Pál Németh)". However, credits on disc cover is different: "Mária Zádori, soprano; Concerto Armonico; Artistic Directors: Péter Szüts, Miklós Spányi".
