A group of musicians can be called many things; by the context and the number of people playing together.

General terms are: band, ensemble. More terms include: troupe, group; and in the military: corps.

Orchestra, philharmonic & symphony often refer to groups consisting of classical instruments.

In reference to the number of people performing together it may be appropriate to use collective names:

1 player: solo

2 players: duo/duet

3 players: trio

4 player: quartet

5 players: quintet
