Hi Michael: About the the and others, it could be a good idea as LMS does About the Bach case, it is difficult to solve. It is a problem with all the classical music authors. Spotify uses the name and surname in all the authors and I use only the surname. I.e. Debussy, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin. could be possible to look for a substring inside a string?
