What your mediainfo output shows is consistent with what I get for my FLAC file but contradicts my previous experience with MP3 files. Unfortunately, mediainfo has already manipulated the actual tag contents.
Could you please go an extra step, post your MP3 file on a filesharing site such DropBox or Google Drive, and send me a link by PM? (I should have asked for it to begin with, sorry.)

The Kid3 docs were a good thought, but they don't tell me anything I don't already know about music metadata. The most valuable contribution is its Table 3.1. Mapping of Unified Frame Types to Various Formats. However, this table appears to be identical to the one published by MusicBrainz and similar tables published by others.
More to the point, Kid3, like many of the tag editors I'm familiar with, manipulates metadata behind the scenes. For example, it takes my FLAC file with its correct two "GENRE=Electronic" and "GENRE=Music" fields and displays instead "Genre Electronic;Music". <rant>I intensely dislike software which does this</rant>.
The question for me remains, what specifically is contained in your ID3v2 tag which is allowing interpretation of multiple genre entries in a single string.
Oh, and Guten Tag!
