Apple Music Classical: A New App Dedicated to Classical Music
Apple has officially announced Apple Music Classical, a new app dedicated towards classical music. The app is now available for pre-order on the App Store, and it will be automatically downloaded on March 28th.
The new app is based on Prime Phonic, a classical music streaming service that Apple acquired in 2021. As such, anyone who has an Apple Music subscription or an Apple One subscription will be able to access this new app without having to pay for anything extra. This means that users can take advantage of the app's features and content without any additional cost.
Apple Music Classical offers a wide range of classical music tracks, including over 5 million tracks. These include new high-quality releases, as well as hundreds of curated playlists, thousands of exclusive albums, and other features like composer bios and deep dives on key works. The app also allows users to search by composer, work, conductor, or catalog number, providing a more detailed level of access to the content.
One of the standout features of Apple Music Classical is its simpler interface for interacting with classical music. This sets it apart from the existing Apple Music app, which has a more general-purpose design. The new app's stripped-down design and clean aesthetic make it feel like a specialized tool for classical music enthusiasts. As such, it can be seen as a "classier" version of Apple Music, reminiscent of if the two apps had a baby.
The app's design language is also worth noting, with high-res portraits of composers like Bach and Beethoven commissioned by Apple for the app. The use of color palettes and artistic references from the relevant Classical period adds to the overall aesthetic, with more unique artwork to be added over time.
While the app is currently only available on iOS devices with a 15.4 or newer operating system, Apple did mention that an Android app will be available soon. However, for now, the app is exclusive to iOS users. It's worth noting that Apple also plans to release Mac and iPadOS versions of the app in the future, possibly during WWDC.
To get involved with Apple Music Classical, users can check out the official Twitter account for the app, @AppleClassical. This will provide a central hub for news, updates, and discussion about the app and its features.
Overall, Apple Music Classical offers a unique and specialized tool for classical music enthusiasts. With its wide range of content, simple interface, and sleek design, it's sure to be an attractive option for those who love classical music. Whether you're a huge fan or just curious, there's no doubt that this app will be worth checking out.
