Stellar musician (8)

I believe the answer is:

virtuoso

(Other definitions for virtuoso that I've seen before include "A consummate master of technique and artistry on a musical instrument" , "Genius" , "One has exceptional musical skill" , "Brilliant player" , "Sour Vito may be one who excels musically" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
