The highly-anticipated Apple Music Classical app is now available for pre-order on the App store.
Apple has some exciting news for all classical music fans. The Cupertino-based tech company has said that on March 28 it will release Apple Music Classical, an exclusive music app in the genre.
Earlier plans called for the Primephonic-acquired application to go live at the end of 2022. Users will now be able to enjoy it more quickly, though. Users can now pre-order the app before it launches since it has debuted on the App Store.
With the usual Apple Music subscription, users will be able to access the new app, which will be available as a separate download in the App Store. According to the company’s official press release, Apple Music Classical makes it simple to search any recording from the largest collection of classical music in the world. Listeners will be able to enjoy the greatest audio quality, including spatial audio, on their favourite classical pieces, and the catalogue is well optimised for search.
When it comes to Apple’s spatial audio, the classical genre is said to be the best way to experience the heightened audio experience. In the new app users will be able to try thousands of exclusive albums, curated playlists, biographies insightful, access notable works, etc.
“Apple Music Classical also makes it easy for beginners to get acquainted with the genre thanks to hundreds of Essentials playlists, insightful composer biographies, deep-dive guides for many key works, and intuitive browsing features,” reads the description for the app on App Store.
Together with thousands of spatial audio recordings, the application will play music at up to 192 kHz/24-bit high-resolution lossless. According to Apple, the app will also provide precise classical information, which has proven difficult for many music streaming services.
In August 2021, Apple bought Primephonic. A streaming service for classical music called Primephonic provided an excellent audio experience with a wide selection of musicians and songs.
