In Minecraft, I am trying to get a removed track called Calm4 (calm4.ogg) to play in game since any music file under .minecraft/resources/music will play, and that is where I put the file. Because a track is randomly selected, I removed all other music in that folder and the newmusic folder just so that only Calm4 would play.
After loading a world, I am still hearing other tracks including those I have removed from the folders. Am I misunderstanding something, or will Calm4 never play in newer versions of the game?

The .minecraft/resources folder is not used, so any changes you make there will not affect the game. The folder you'll want is .minecraft/assets, but it will probably be easier to just create a resource pack.
For example, the following .minecraft/resourcepacks/NAME/assets/minecraft/sounds.json would add calm4 to the available music to be played.
{ "music.game": { "category": "music", "sounds": [ { "name": "music/game/calm4", "stream": true } ] }
}You'd place calm4.ogg at .minecraft/resourcepacks/NAME/assets/minecraft/sounds/music/game/calm4.ogg within the same resource pack.
You'll still need a pack.meta file to define the pack, appearing at .minecraft/resourcepacks/NAME/pack.meta. Example content of that file:
{ "pack": { "pack_format": 1, "description": "Adds calm4.ogg" }
}You can find more information regarding sounds.json here.
