solo instrument
Unaccompanied musical voice
A solo instrument is one that carries the melody or featured part in a musical performance, typically accompanied by an orchestra, ensemble, or piano.
The term distinguishes the lead voice from supporting parts: The violin is the solo instrument in this concerto.
A soloist plays the solo instrument, while the accompaniment provides harmonic and rhythmic support.
