Musician, band member inspiring love, performing (10)

I believe the answer is:

bassoonist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'musician' is the definition.
(bassoonist is a kind of musician)

'band member inspiring love performing' is the wordplay.
'band member' becomes 'bassist' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'inspiring' indicates putting letters inside.
'love' becomes 'o' (In tennis, 'love' means 'zero').
'performing' becomes 'on' (I've seen this in other clues).
'o'+'on'='oon'
'bassist' going around 'oon' is 'BASSOONIST'.
