In music, instrumentation is the particular combination of musical instruments employed in a composition, and the properties of those instruments individually. Instrumentation is sometimes used as a synonym for orchestration. This juxtaposition of the two terms was first made in 1843 by Hector Berlioz in his Grand traité d'instrumentation et d'orchestration modernes, and various attempts have since been made to differentiate them. Instrumentation is a more general term referring to an orchestrator's, composer's or arranger's selection of instruments in varying combinations, or even a choice made by the performers for a particular performance, as opposed to the narrower sense of orchestration, which is the act of scoring for orchestra a work originally written for a solo instrument or smaller group of instruments.

The term Mixed music describes music combining acoustic instruments and fixed-media electronics and/or real-time electronic instrumental transformations; in other words, music which combines acoustic-instrumental and electronic sounds sources, not including electrically amplified instruments, such as the electric guitar and electronic instruments such as the theremin, electronic organs & keyboards, etc. Mixed music is therefore a subcategory of electronic music. While this term may be applied to many genres, the it generally refers to contemporary classical music and, is therefore distinct from live electronic music.
