No more access to my music purchase.

I have no more access to old purchase (2015) on my iTunes account. I have the invoice of each purchase sent by Apple. How can I retrieve my purchase?

The song purchases that you made in 2015 would be on the computer where you did the purchase, and any copies or backups that you have made since then.


Also, if you are still using the same Apple ID, are in the same country, and the content is still available, you may be able to redownload fresh copies at no charge. Follow the steps in here:
