It was not the Terracotta Army that Qin Shihuang used to take the whole country, but the soldiers who the Terracotta Army modelled after. Thus the unification of China by Qin Shihuang was happened in 221 BCE.
The estimated burial time of the Terracotta Army is around 209 BCE, and the discovery time is 1974 CE. Thus, the Terracotta Army was buried for 2100 years at least.
He ordered to build the Terracotta Army as his tomb guard in accordance with the appearance of his elite soldiers.
The Terracotta Army warriors were originally underground.
The Terracotta Army was an army of life-sized terracotta figurines found in an ancient Chinese Imperial burial.

No, there was no musician statues in the Terracotta Army. Because the army was used to guard emperor's tomb, they were all soldier statues. However, there could be some soldiers who were formerly musicians, that possibility cannot be excluded.
They were his army

A fact about the terracotta army is that 1.All of the clay soldiers represent one of the soldiers that was in the army. So it basically represents the soldiers that was in the army.
