Add Period/style and composition type to search criteria. If a search includes composer name, use the SQL match() scores to pick a single person if appropriate. For example, 'carl bach' shows results only for CPE Bach, not various people with 'carl' and 'bach' in their names. Include 'alternative title' in title search. For example, title 'moonlight' and name 'beethoven' returns the Moonlight Sonata. Include subcompositions in search results. For example, title 'kennst' and name 'wolf' returns the Hugo Wolf song, which is a subcomposition of Goethe Lieder. Show a YouTube search link with appropriate search parameters.
