Who is the composer? >> Improved labelling of Music

Thanks a lot for your support @Arla0. You're right, it does require a well-thought metadata structure. Will pass your feedback on!

Why is this topic labeled “Implemented”?

Hi there @bluezzbastardzz 

We're already working on this but it takes a long time due to the metadata that we get from the distributors. That's why we've marked as implemented, as the work already started and it'll be continuous.

Don't know if this is being implemented as well, but when choosing an opera album for example, all separate items are numbered but all have the full title and due to the limited number of characters they all show up the same in the album listing.

Looks like this :

Album Die Zauberflöte

CD 1

1. Die Zauberflöte, K620.. 

2. Die Zauberflöte, K620..

3. Die Zauberflöte, K620..

etc

This makes it hard to find the part you want to listen to. Now you have to first play it to see it scroll the full title.

This should automatically be corrected if the databases are setup correctly i suppose. 

Very important piece of feedback @pierrelebon thank you for being so detailed. Will pass it on to our teams and hopefully this improves within our catalogue 

I have just moved over here after a couple of years with Spotify. I feel the metadata for classical music is quite a bit poorer. Much more instances I feel where only movement titles are listed, which in the case of compilations make it really frustrating to identify a work. I hope Deezer can put more effort into this area. 

Hi there @John Tan 

You're right, this is an area we fall short. But the teams are increasingly putting more effort and resources to improve this.

We need feedback like yours to ensure this happens. Thank you for your input and contribution.

some problems can be solved if it was possible to see the backside off an album (Tidal can do it)

I have a Deezer hifi subscription and listen to classical music.  Classical music is challenging on streaming services, because the album and song names are not standardized.  So I usually search by artist.  One of my favorites is the pianist Paul Lewis.  When I select his recording of the Beethoven piano concertos on the app, the tracks are all scrambled.  You get a movement of the first concerto then a movement of the third concerto.  Why does this happen?  It makes listening to a  complete piece of music on Deezer impossible.  When I look up the same recording on the desktop app, only two of the five concertos appear to be available.  Please take classical music seriously!

Good point @vos58. I'll put your suggestion through, you never know
