Title with quarter or month but not both

I have a page with a visual with separate slicers for month, quarter and year.

 

I am trying to make a title on a card so that title that says "Quarter 2 2023" Or "April 2023".

I tried to use the following measure:

Title1 = "Report Name "&Unichar(10)&selected[selected quarter]&selected[selected month]&" "&selected[selected year]

If I choose April but no quarter it says "Qtr 2April 2023"  It is OK if I just choose quarter, not month.

Is there a way I can either change my title measure to ignore the quarter if the month is chosen or better yet have a single slicer to choose either the month or quarter?

Maybe you can consider something like:

Title1 = 
var selectedQuarterOrMonth = SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Month], SELECTEDVALUE([Quarter]))
"Report Name " &Unichar(10)& selectedQuarterOrMonth & " " & selected[selected year]

The idea behind this is that selectedvalue will only return a value if there's only 1 value. Since each quarter has more than a month, then the selectedvalue will return the quarter value as an alternative result if a quarter is selected, rather than a single month.

I had to use return to make it work, but it worked.
