Beet list genre exact match

Running into an odd issue.

I’ve got plenty of music with genre: Classical, but I’ve also got music with genre: Neoclassical.

the query “beet list genre:classical” will list both classical and neoclassical

the query “beet list genre:=~classical” will return nothing.

I’ve also tried

beet list genre:=Classical
beet list genre:= Classical
beet list genre:=“Classical”
beet list genre:=" Classical"
beet list genre:="Classical "

all return nothing.

any help would be appreciated.

Try

beet list genre::^classical

If on windows (cmd.exe) )you may need to do

beet list “genre::^classical”

neither of those worked.

Oh!

beet list genre::^Classical

that worked!

also

beet list genre::^(C|c)lassical

learning regex now lol
