How do I get Alexa to play Apple Classical?
Got it work by going to Apple Music Classical App. Creating a playlist of what I wanted - which creates it under your Apple Music Playlist. Then told Alexa to play under Apple “Playlist Name of the Playlist”. I used a routine, but should work with voice.
in summary Apple Music Classical ties back to you original Apple Music and then Alex can play it from there.

Apple has a new Classical-specific app now. Unlike Apple Music, it’s composition-based rather than track-based, and has a giant curated library of Classical music, including tracks with Spacial Audio and Dolby Atmos. What we want to know is how to use Apple CLASSICAL with Alexa, not Apple Music. There’s a reason Apple created a Classical-specific app, because Apple Music does not do a great job of finding and playing Classical music. Thank you for providing a better answer than “here’s how to play Apple Music.”
Hi there SimonThesis,
Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.
We understand you'd like to know how to get Apple Music Classical to play with Alexa. Currently, there is the Alexa skill to enable Apple Music on your Alexa devices: Play Apple Music with Alexa - Apple Support
For up-to-date Apple News, we recommend taking note of the announcements here: Newsroom - Apple
We hope this helps.
Take care.
It is disappointing that there was not any follow up to the valid question. The answer provided by Matthew_J5 was indeed insufficient. Is there any way, either through voice or manually, to play material from APPLE MUSIC CLASSICAL onto Alexa?
not helpful at all. Your response does not provide the answer. We are looking for you simply provide the old capability.
I've enabled the Apple Music skill on Alexa but it still doesn't recognize "Apple Music Classical" (as Apple calls their service) and plays classic rock instead. Any suggestions?
It’s now impossible to get Alexa to play Apple classical music. Since you can’t provide a satisfactory resolution I have switched to Amazon Music Unlimited.
This does not help. I can play Apple Music on my Alexa devices, but not the Apple Classical. Will there be an update coming that specifically allows this?
