Corpus: missing metadata #6

Many of the Haydn Quartet representations seem not to have the work title or composers listed in the metadata. This seems to be a problem with the MuseData encodings provided by Stanford.

This means that when you use music21's .show() function to look at a score, the score is displayed missing a title, composer, etc. as follows:

Fixing this would mean changing the original files provided by CCARH, which might be controversial, especially since the files are checked in compressed (so looking at the diffs in music21's revision history is not possible).
