If you have all these files on a external storage devise such as a drive or usb memory stick since you plug it in to the port on the side of the Mac it will eventually come up in finder. Then you can open your files there and also import them to the music library. Again you need to look in the side bar and click on the devise you have them stored on and then press open. You will need to cursor right until you get to the open button to click on. If you used Apple Music before in the iMac I think you will soon work it out. It is very good but lately you do have to open a side bit to change track and volume. You need to find music player and click on it and then go left and right with the cursor to find the info you need. It is there where you will find the name of the track band, time that has played and length of track and I think also Keri’s love emma
