Use View > View As > Songs, enable the BPM column by right-clicking on the column headings if needed, then click the heading of the BPM column to sort on it. You may also be able to right-click on the playlist name in the sidebar and use Copy to Play Order.

Thanks for trying to help, Richard. This is what I get with my Mac mini with M1 chip:


From that pop up menu you would tick Songs, or use View > as Songs from the main menu, or use the Songs view of the library in the sidebar. Each of these should result in a view of your content that consists of multiple columns, where you can adjust the selection of which columns are displayed by right- or ctrl-clicking the column headings. You can also change the width of many columns and drag them into your prefered order. BPM is one of these available columns.

In a peak vI fired up "Music" version 1.4.1.29, and hit "COMAND + J" under the first part on the left hand side of the 2 columns. Fourth down is "Beats Per Minute.

I confess that in My Library of15001 Items a Meer 237 have a "beats per minute" listed.


Sad Really Maybe they could rid of that too. I'm running Sonoma, (or they are).
