executant

I can best describe this book as a series of masterclasses at which we are, mercifully, not required to put our 'executant' talents under scrutiny.

The king's repeated affirmations of his dependence upon Buckingham meant that he was blamed for unpopular policies such as the ‘Spanish match’ of which he was merely the 'executant' .

In the attempt to humanize music, that attempt which almost every 'executant' makes, knowing that he will be judged by his success or failure in it, what is most fatally lost is that sense of mystery which, to music, is atmosphere.

Still, as 'executant' and chief player on the credits, Scorsese must take the chief responsibility.

A half-hour of music entirely free of cliché and determined to create its own set of conventions makes things tough on 'executant' and listener.
