How some musicians play (2,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

by ear

'how some musicians play' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for by ear that I've seen before include "without reading from written music" , "Of music played without referring to a written score" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com and the LA Times.
