It looks to me like you have it backwards. If your page is going to show a single artist with multiple records belonging to the artist,
you should have ArtistForm, and no need to do anything to Record.
So, in this scenario:
ArtistForm
String name
String age
Set records
In this case, I believe BeanUtils.copyProperties would work just fine, or with only a few properties, copying them indivicually is no big deal.
