Under Catalina where/how do I go to select albums from my iMac with Catalina to sync to my iOS iPhone running 13.3? I did have a temp Apple Music subscription but cancelled the trial now just want to sync albums from my local library to the iPhone.
Hello starbux48,
Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with syncing music.
With macOS Catalina, you will need to use Finder. This article will help: Use the Finder to sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with your computer - Apple Support
Make sure you disable Sync Library because if this is enabled, syncing with the Finder may be disabled. "If you use iCloud or other services like Apple Music to keep your content up to date across all of your devices, some syncing features through the Finder might be turned off."

Thanks and have a wonderful day.

Alex, you seem to be the expert in synching an Ipod with a Mac. With Catalina, how do I now synch specific Albums with my Ipod. If synching from the finder, I select Album, and it just shows me all of the album names in my music library. How do I know which artist they are associated with? I have lots of "Greatest Hits" albums, and I don't know which one is which. In Itunes it used to show me both the album name and the artist at the same time.
