Music App Problem

Is it possible to remove or reduce the "Art" image which dominates the screen in Music and takes up far too much space? On a MacBook, it is not possible to see much of my playlists. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

Hi,

No. This is a common complaint. I suggest Feedback - Apple Music - Apple.

Music - No way to change playlist header size? I use Music on my Mac a lot to make playlists to suit my mood. These days, when I go into a playlist, slightly less than a third of the screen is just... dead space. The playlist header, with album art and description and all that, takes up a ton of room relative to the amount of information it contains. It limits the number of songs - the things I'm actually on that screen to see or sort through - which can appear at once. With 'list size' set to medium in Music Preferences, and looking in song view, I can see a grand total of 31 songs. If I was able to adjust - or better, get rid of - the header, probably another 15 or songs would be visible. kalibhakta had the same complaint on 12/23/20, and the answer someone provided was to go into preferences and tick the 'song list boxes' to bring back the checkmark boxes by the songs, completely misunderstanding the nature of the grievance. Is there any solution for this, or am I just stuck with it until Apple does another design revamp?

Make Music playlist window small Since updating to OS Monterey, I can no longer make the music window small. I need to have a small window where I can see my playlist, but there's now a huge cover image that does not scroll. How to remove this so I can see the songs, without making the window bigger? And why does the miniplayer also show the image instead of the playlist? I don't need to see the image, I need to see my songs! Music 1.2.5.7

Apple Music playlist header takes up too much space, how to get rid of it? Upgraded to Monterey, I am shocked to see how much space the header section takes up when viewing a playlist in Music. I am even more dismayed to discover that there are no user controls available to remove that obtrusive playlist header section. WHY DID APPLE DO THAT? Is it true that there is no way to regain viewable real estate in a playlist window? Since it seems as though there is no way, is there an alternative to Music that has a more practical and user-friendly interface? Has anyone used Swinsian? If so, can you vouch for that as a viable, stable alternative. Does it work well with music libraries that have hundreds of thousands of songs, and thousands of playlists?
