I think the Classical app is both for the sake of the music but also a play at multiple interfaces over the same literal .app, which is different enough from how they've been doing things that it will take longer to figure it out. I say this because when I start listening to the Classical app and then connect to CarPlay, it still appears to just be Music, but not in the way that any app could read Apple Music and serve sounds from it, more like a different entry point to Music, akin to multiple activities on an Android app. Without any inside knowledge and very minimal sleuthing, I'm definitely ready to be super wrong, but interested and kinda hopeful to be see if I'm right.

The Music Classical app is basically just a separate Music UI for searching/discovering. Anything you add to your library also appears in the regular Music app. Which I personally found disappointing cause I would have liked my libraries to be separate since my classical listening is going to differ from my normal music listening and I'd rather a random movement of a random piece to not show up in my shuffle. Though it also seems kind of necessary because the Classical app is missing some basic playback features like "play next" or queue management.
