moving selected music from MacBook to iPad 4th gen 12.9" ?

I am about to buy a refurbed iPad 4th gen 12.9" , mostly for art making, images and animation. I also will use it for teaching device for my stained glass class.


I would like to be able to take it to places with no wifi and play music. Can I transfer selected albums and songs ( imported from my cds) and now located on an older MacBook Pro to the hard drive music library of the iPad?


I am old and semi-retired but fit and still work at places with no wifi. I am also low income, and try hard to minimize monthly payments.

Depending on exactly how old the MacBook Pro and its version of macOS are, you should be able to sync the music to the iPad using iTunes or Finder.
