Classical music movements being treated as separate tracks instead of as part of a composers complete “work" is one of those pet peeves I have with most softwares. With the help from Wer and others, I used MC's hidden talents to group them as one.
And just for fun, I took a screen shot of how others handle classical music files. So far, primephonic, and Roon do it right (or close to it). The rest do it the same way - as separate tracks.
Here, is JRiver, and then in alphabetical order are Amazon Unlimited, Idagio, Primephonic, Roon, Spotify, and Tidal.

Dennis - Your conclusion about "who got it right" is based an a wrong assumption.
They all got it right - They are all correctly listing the Tracks on the Version of the Album in their System.
According to Discogs over the years 11 Versions of that Album we released - some with "1 Track per Composition" and some with "1 Track Per Movement"
The ones you believe "got it right" used a "1 Track per Composition" recording
The ones you believe "got it wrong" used a "1 Track Per Movement" recording
If they had all used a "1 Track per Composition" release they all would have got it right.
If they had all used a "1 Track Per Movement" release they all would have got it wrong.
There will be people out there that prefer to listen to "1 Track per Composition" recordings whilst others will prefer a "1 Track Per Movement" recordings, neither way is right and neither is wrong. Both methods exist because there is sufficient demand for both versions to make both of them Economically Viable
