Custom genres on Catalina

Before I upgrade my new computer from Mojave to Catalina, I’d like to know if it’s possible to have custom named genres on the Music app?


Thank you.

Elisabeth,

Yes, it works on Music the same as iTunes. There is a set of standard genres. But you can set the genre for a particular song to any text you want. As long as there is at least one song with that genre, it will appear on the genre list.
