musical ensemble

A musical ensemble is a group of musicians who perform together, coordinating their instruments or voices to create a unified sound. Ensembles can vary in size and style, from small trios or quartets to large orchestras or bands. Each member plays a specific role, contributing their part to the overall harmony and melody. The interdependence and collaboration among members are essential for a cohesive performance. Ensembles often specialize in particular genres or traditions, and their success depends on effective communication, listening, and timing among participants.
