Why are there two apps?
It may take some people by surprise that Apple has decided to have the new Apple Music Classic service in a separate app, instead of integrating it into the existing music app. Neither religion was something of a “new creation,” so to speak.
Today’s Apple Music service exists thanks to the purchase of the company Beats, which, in addition to titles, works in streaming music called Beats Music. When Apple added this service, they named it Apple Music. Apple Music Classical, on the contrary, the result of the purchase of the company Primaphone, we have noted the streaming music service exclusively in the genres of classical music. So one of the main differences between the two services, which is also the reason why the two apps are different, is the first concept of the music service of both.
kind of musicians
It is clear that classical music is a different genre than pop, dance or disco music. But the difference between the two roles, which is in the genre of music, is what is behind it. It is not visible to the naked eye.
Classical music is very ancient in itself. Every store requires a very copious and accurate classification. Furthermore, how all the material is classified and organized has nothing to do with how a song and an album of music can be classified as “modern”.
We are not talking about “Singles”, “EPs”, “LPs”, “Artists” or “Live Albums”. We talk about “Composer”, “Director”, “Catalog number” or “Work”. The nomenclature of the genus is already different. But so are the metadata with the individual pieces and works that are available. Today’s Apple Music interface takes a different approach.
Shapes the content of the interface
Apple Classical Music, having a series of special features, requires a medium that adapts to the classical music ecosystem. In the current Apple Music interface we have things like song lyrics, a karaoke function, classifications by artists, and we also have small publications like “mini diaries”, telling the story of an LP or with written comments. artists
But classical music does not need this. In fact, the casino itself needs more. First of all, the search results are adjusted, with the appropriate filters. The same work was performed by several orchestras, directed by different people and at different times. And all these things, in the same way as a library or a museum, are all registered.
Plus, Apple Music Classical puts the twist on “mini blog” posts. If on Apple Music we have comments from artists, interviews, etc. Here we will approach much more deeply, with full narratives of the works of the writers, we will bring descriptions at a greater level of how the work was interpreted.
