Delete music from Mac

I’m wondering since my Music is now on iCloud would I be able to transfer all my music to an external hard drive to save space on my Mac. Or does it have to stay on the Mac.

You would need to keep the drive attached to the computer to allow for syncing, but that should work. After you move the iTunes Library, go to iTunes/Preferences/Advanced and reset the location.
