Apple Music Classical Now Available on the Web

Apple Music Classical is now available on the web at classical.music.apple.com.

Apple Music Classical Web
Apple Music Classical launched in most countries in March 2023, allowing users with a standard Apple Music subscription to stream more than five million classical music tracks, at no additional cost. Apple Music Classical is based on Primephonic, a classical music streaming service that was acquired by Apple in 2021.

To celebrate Apple Music Classical becoming available on the web, an Apple spokesperson said a new recording of Julius Eastman's Symphony No. 2 and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 2 from conductor Franz Welser-Möst and the Cleveland Orchestra will be available exclusively on Apple Music Classical for the next six weeks.

Apple Music Classical is also available as an app on the iPhone, iPad, and Android, and it gained CarPlay support last year. There is still no Mac app.

This company really knows how to focus on the important stuff
This app is a god send for classical music lovers. My dad uses it every single day and I’m sure others like him do the same.

A web version before an actual Mac App ... for a PAID service

If I wanted to listen to this junk I'd go hop on an elevator.
Apparently you know nothing about Classical music... or elevators.

The Apple Music app keeps ruining your library containing classical music. Maybe lacking the macOS app is a good idea!
I've had this happen and it's very annoying.
They change the names and album covers on anything you have ripped from your old CD's.

Called Apple a few years ago - twice - about this and they said they're aware of it and strongly indicated that ultimately they don't care and don't intend to do any of us silly folks any favors by making sure Apple Music doesn't go through all our library.

Sure enough since then they haven't done anything to change it.

Their goal is a full take-over of all our music listening.
No ripped CD's, no nothing other than Apple Music on your computer.

My solution is to keep all my CD's on an external drive and only then do they leave it alone.
