Create, edit, and delete playlists in Apple Music Classical
You can create a playlist—a custom compilation of classical music that can contain albums, recordings, tracks, and even other playlists. You might want to make a playlist to suit an occasion or mood, to group recordings by a specific composer or theme, or to share with others. After you create a playlist, you can add, remove, or reorder items.
Additionally, a Favorite Songs playlist is automatically created when you mark music, composers, or artists as favorites.
Note: If a playlist includes non-classical music that you added through the Apple Music app , Apple Music Classical only shows the classical music.
