AFAIK never used in a sentence.

KGT 74:  When the context is clearly musical, a player, - that is, one who plays a musical instrument - is a {chu'wI'}, though more specific terminology may also be used, depending on the instrument being played.

KGT 71:  A musician is a {muchwI'} (literally, "one who performs music")

KGT 72:  Traditional Klingon music is generally performed only by those who have had a great deal of training. The study of this type of music, whether composition or performance, is considered a discipline not unlike a martial art.

Related words:

muchwI' 	musician (n)

chu' 	play (a musical instrument) (v)
much  	present, perform (music) (v)
