For example a album "Beethoven Cello sonatas No.1/3/5 Rostropovich Richter", there are 2 artists for all the tracks in the album, Mstislav Rostropovich and Sviatoslav Richter. Shouldn't I tag the ALBUMARTIST as "Mstislav Rostropovich\\Sviatoslav Richter"?

No, you shouldn't. You should omit the ALBUMARTIST tag and you should tag the ARTIST for all the tracks as "Mstislav Rostropovich\\Sviatoslav Richter". When you view any of these tracks (or the complete album) in MinimServer, you'll see an artist value of "Mstislav Rostropovich, Sviatoslav Richter". This value will also appear in the Artist index. In the All Artists index (if you're using it), you'll see all these tracks listed under both "Mstislav Rostropovich" and "Sviatoslav Richter".
