In the new app, users can search for works using keyword combinations that include composer, work, opus number, conductor, artist, instrument or even the work’s name. In addition, many composers have their own special catalog classifications, which means classical music search has to be built differently with these complexities in mind. This data helps Apple Music subscribers find recordings across the catalog through the app’s specialized search engine built for classical music.Īs Apple explains, classical works have multiple movements and tracks, while famous pieces have hundreds of recordings with different orchestras, conductors, and soloists. The company said that there are more than 5 million tracks available on the app right now, as well over 50+ million data points with data attributes of 20,000+ composers, 115,000+ unique works, and 350,000+ movements.
