I have a piece of music on a CD in wav format. It plays beautifully on

play it. To what format shall I have to convert the music so that it
will play on an ordinary domestic CD player please?
When you burnt the CD, the program gave you the choice of a Data CD or
an Audio CD. (Maybe other options as well.) You chose Data CD, and
the data you chose to burn was a wav file. Fine for computers, but a
domestic CD player needs an Audio CD.
You don't have to do any converting. Just tell the burning program
you want an Audio CD and show it where the wav file is. (Or a series
of wav files, if you have some.)
One thing. Your CD blanks may proudly announce "52X !" Your
program will offer a choice of burning speeds, maybe up to this 52X
setting. But don't. Choose a moderate speed. Somewhere between 10X
and 20X is usually reliable. Maybe slower on a laptop.
