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)
