Music App window takes over the screen on my Mac Studio playing Tahoe

I have Mac OS Tahoe and its Music App won't allow me to compress it and the specific song being played is in a bar at the bottom of the window = which can't be made smaller nor can the bar be moved up or to the side = the Music app takes up too much room. Can this be fixed?

You can put the Music app in Full Scrren mode and just a swipe way...(?)

or the mini player can be moved around independently...

Thanks much = I'll try the minimizing= when I tried it tho it still took over too much of the space. Basically I'd like to have a little thin bar I can put at top or wherever - nothing big == I do know I can Hide and that's some of what I've been doing but while I work I would like to see the song/artisst and click Favorite if I want = without a lot of keystrokes == thanks for the info and I'll try to find a fix
