Модель:
class People(models.Model):
name=models.CharField
class Recordings(models.Model):
title=models.CharField
performers=models.ManyToManyField(People)
На SQL это можно сделать так:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE id IN (SELECT DISTINCT people_id FROM recordings_people)
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM recordings_people JOIN people ON recordings_people.people_id=people.id
