I have several classical CDs that I need to load into iTunes.

Some pieces have several movements. How can I join the movements into a

What version of iTunes do you have?

This has instructions for importing 'merged' CD's in iTunes 11

I suspect iTunes 12 hides the feature even more, but I don't have it in front of me to check, this appears to cover it in iTunes 12…

This option will combine the tracks in the resulting imported file, so you need to set this up for each disk you rip into iTunes.

iTunes 12.3.2.

I see the options button.

The tracks are in ascending numerical order.

I checked the three tracks, but the option did not appear

LATER - i 'selected' the three tracks by highlighting then together

AH - then the option to join appeared.

So, thanks for getting me to the solution

Great, I'm glad you figured it out, it can be tricky to keep track of the UI and feature changes 🙂
