musicians
- 1Plural of musician.

Note
A regular plural, made by adding -s, so it takes plural verbs and determiners: the musicians are tuning, these musicians, many musicians. In writing, watch the possessive. The musicians' union puts the apostrophe after the s, while the musician's union would belong to a single player. The plural keeps the full reach of the singular, covering composers, conductors, singers and instrumentalists alike.
