Search results could be better

[Bob Harvey]

I really like this app, although there is a long wait for the music to start on my feed. But it's a grand thing.

Problem is I like orchestral music (What people sometimes call "classical") and the search results are not good for the sort of music I like.

The results are returned as individual movements, and even by improving the search term with the featured performers it is still not possible to see which "tracks" are from an individual performance. I have no desired to listen to movements from the 1947 recordings mixed in with the 1985 ones.

the screen grabs tell the story better than words

Note that even with this level of detail in the search it is still not clear what performances go together

[Bob Harvey (bobharvey)]

By the way, the 7th has (of course) 4 movements. That last screen grab does not show all 4 for any one performance, most have only 3 of the 4 for some reason.

Which leads to the question that I am about to pose in the "answer" section of launchpad...

But in many respects only being able to find 3 out of 4 "tracks" from a performance ("album"?) is also some sort of bug in the search.
