Use iphone Music app to play iTunes library stored on My Cloud (original)?

I have a copy of my large iTunes library on My Cloud (the original one, NOT “My Cloud Home”). I know that I can laboriously find individual files, including mp3s, and play them. But because iTunes organizes files in a way that makes finding whole Albums hard to locate w/o the iTunes program, that’s more trouble than it’s worth.

Does anyone know if there’s a way to get the Music (or some other iPhone app) to be able to “read” the iTunes library which is on my My Cloud so that albums can be easily located and played on the iPhone or iPad?

What do you have set for itunes in the Dashboard? Is your My Cloud a 1st or 2nd generation?

Thanks for your msg.

I have the original MyCloud. I run Mojave on my iMac. Since re-doing my hard drive, My Cloud shows in my Finder, so I can use it for storage. But the My Cloud setup program is unable to “find” it when I try to reinstall. So I can’t get to the browser page in your picture.

Any thoughts
