Configuring MPD may seem intimidating, but actually there is a good how-to to do just that (link above) and NCMPCPP is your ncurses-based app that MPD will connect to (NCMPCPP is ncurses-based, so technically a text-based user interface).
Both are available in standard repositories for Ubuntu (and derivatives) users.

Where were you guys when I was struggling ?
Attached screenshot shows my first usable attempt. I haven't had the time to progress since then.
I plan to play around with ncurses to set up new configs soon.
Could each of you post your ncmpcpp config (for educational purposes), please?
TIA.
