ambum 4 - Jazz/Big Band
ambum 5 - Jazz/nu-jazz
ambum 6 - Jazz/nu-jazz
ambum 7 - Jazz/nu-jazz
This would just be organised alphabetically, and have the exact same effect as you would want, no?
I use genres loosely, and mainly because its just plain easy.

The idea I had in mind was that a media player should be able to do something like this, expanding on your own example :
- Genres :
- Jazz
- Big Band
- Album 1
- Album 2
- Song 1
- Song 7 (ex. the genre only applies to a couple of the songs on the album)
- Album 3
- Album 4
- Nu-jazz
Since this information is not supported by the tags I know, I'm guessing this is not really something media players can do, but I like things being organized and would like to see something like this - at least support for it. As for my own collection and what to do with it, yeah - I was basically thinking of something like you presented.
What I would like to do first is come up with a set of super-genres like jazz that can describe all the music I have in my library.
