The examples seem to work out fine. Thanks!
As concerns the "nr.1", not all works have a (correct) number. In other words, in the title the only certainty is the phrase "in g klein" the key of the work. While diving deeper into this I realise that there is another complication as concerns the place where the key is dropped.
In the library standard* the key of a work is in most cases placed at the end of the title or if applicable, before the movement indicator (as in example 2). However, if a work has a nickname or is an arrangement or is a specific version (f.i. early version or a revision) the key is placed before those indicators.
So according to these standards the works are titled as follows:
[WORK] [NUMBER] [CATALOGUE NUMBER] [KEY] [nickname or incipit] other indicators such as [ARR.] [VERSION] then - [MOVEMENT NUMBER in Roman numerals]. then [TEMPO].
For my personal use, where applicable I added
[recording type] if other than studio [Live]
[audio resolution] if higher than cd [HiRes]
Trio·for·piano,·violin·and·cello·nr.1·Hob.XV·in·g·klein·-·I.·Moderato
breaks down into
[WORK] Trio·for·piano,·violin·and·cello]·
[NUMBER] [nr.1]·
CATALOGUE NUMBER [Hob.XV]
[KEY] [in·g·klein]
·-· (separator)
[MOVEMENT NUMBER] [I.]
[TEMPO or name] [Moderato]
Example 3 with nick name
Symfonie nr.1 in Bes-groot, op.38 ('Frühlingssinfonie') - I. Andante un poco maestoso – Allegro molto vivace,
the action should change this to
Symfonie nr.1, op.38 in Bes-groot ('Frühlingssinfonie') - I. Andante un poco maestoso – Allegro molto vivace
Example 4
[WORK] [NUMBER] [KEY] [VERSION] [CATALOGUE NUMBER] [SEPARATOR] [MOVEMENT NUMBER] [TEMPO] [recording type] [audio resolution]
Symfonie nr.1 in c-klein [Wiener Fassung 1890/91], WAB101 - I. Allegro [Live] [HiRes]
no change necessary.
Hope this clarifies a bit what I would like to achieve with the action.

* If you would be unfamiliar with classical music let me further explain why I trouble you with my hassles. Opposed to (most) popular music, in classical music the same work of a composer is often performed by different artists (soloists, orchestras etc.) or in other settings (symphony played by small ensemble instead), therefore distinction between these is key. My goal is to standardise titles in my own collection to quickly find all versions or a specific version of a work, therefore I am renaming the titles to follow the library standards used in The Netherlands.
