However, I wonder whether there is a possibility to de-activate option 1 in favor of options 2 and 3. This would allow me to continue to use the album tag in quite an arbitrary manner.

BTW:
Your remark Gabetta/Grimaud made me verify the respective tags. Both musicians are in the artist as well as in the album artist tag. They appear in the artist field of nstream, but not in the album artist field. The minimserver log file issues the following warning: "conflicting ALBUMARTIST values ignored for file .... / first conflicting value: Sol Gabetta / second conflicting value: Hélène Grimaud"
Does this mean that Minimserver accepts a single album artist only ? If so, can this number be increased (if not, correcting about two dozen albums would be a too difficult task)

MinimServer accepts a single AlbumArtist value only, and this number cannot be increased.

If there is a reason why you need more than one name in these tags, you can use aliasTags to rename your AlbumArtist tags to something else such as MainArtist. This also provides a way to deactivate option 1).

Perfect ! I was playing around with something like "Artist:Albuminterpret, All Artists:Interpret". Your suggestion betters that workaround by quite a margin.

BTW: I am sorry for the typo, the sentence should have read "would not be a" ...
