I have been getting great help here and I am hoping that I could ask another bit of help with an expression.
My Track names [Name] have the following structure

{Composer Last Name}<Space>–<Space>{actual Track Name}  (the – is an em-Dash <option>-)     

e.g    Auber – Violin Concerto in D major, S.165 - I. Allegro ma non troppo

For editing reasons it would be great if I could make an expression column that shows the [Name] without the {Composer Last Name}<Space>–<Space>

Would someone be able to help me with the expression?

EDIT: Just figured it out - only because I was helped before, so thank you all, especially @Zybex!

Many thanks for any help

You have the options to tag "composer" and "Gruping" for the piece. Why to set that information in the name of the track?

Nice!

Well, as you know, individual preferences are sometimes hard to understand for others. I personally prefer to capture as much information as possible in the file name of a track so that I can at least get back the critical information if something happens to the database. Maybe just because I'm old.

That's an advantage of tags if they're stored in the file (optional in MC).

Indeed, and I love this option because I can protect critical information both ways. All that can can be stored in the file I do store in the file as well and I believe that FLAC is very accommodating in that. I really appreciate that MC can do that.
