I listening only classical music here is some search I do.

- Filter with compositor, rachmaninoff, mozart...

- I filter with record label in spotify, with very specific and quality like "hamonia mundi", "erato" and others.

- Select orchestra (London Symphony Orchestra, Choir of King's College)

- Select musician (Baremboim, Argerich...)

I listen to a lot of classical music too and I have had a better experience in Apple Music for classical music. Also a plus that they acquired Primephonic last year which indicates good things https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2021/08/apple-acquires-classi...
Which label do you recommend for classical on Spotify? Except Deutsche Grammophon.

I noticed that some recordings (ie Rachmaninoff's Vespers) are poorly recorded. With amount of dynamics, especially in choir pieces, they are overdubbed. I do not use volume normalization.

Idagio is really good for classical. Much nicer browsing than Spotify.

https://www.prestomusic.com/classical also has good weekly recommendations.
