Users can now access liner notes and translations
Over 50,000 album booklets are now available on Apple Music Classical. These feature in-depth liner notes and translations as part of an ongoing expansion of Apple Music Classical.
Last year Apple launched Apple Music Classical, the world’s largest classical music catalogue. The addition of over 50,000 digital album booklets offers multi-language liner notes, composer biographies, information about the orchestra, conductors, soloists, and where relevant, sung texts and opera libretti.
Apple Music Classical also recently launched its own classical chart, Apple Classical Top 100, containing the most popular classical albums globally, drawing on five data sources from over 165 countries
Apple Classical Music is also collaborating with venues, opera companies and orchestras to offer listeners new content and recordings, many in spatial audio. Partner organisations include Berlin Philharmonic, Carnegie Hall, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, the Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, Opera National de Paris, Seoul Arts Centre, Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, Suntory Hall, and Vienna Philharmonic.
Apple Music subscribers can access Apple Music Classical at no additional cost.
