* An instrumentalist plays a musical instrument.
* A singer (or vocalist) uses his or her voice as an instrument.
* Composers, songwriters and arrangers create musical compositions, songs and arrangements. These may be transcribed in music notation, performed or recorded.
* A conductor leads a musical ensemble. A conductor can simultaneously act as an instrumentalist in the ensemble.
