a professional who turns invisible vibrations into the thing that makes you cry in your car
means a person who composes, conducts, or performs music, often as a profession or serious craft.
from From the Greek 'mousikē,' the art of the Muses — the nine daughters of Memory who governed song, dance, and the inspired arts. It passed through Latin 'musica' into Old French 'musicien,' and arrived in English in the late Middle Ages. So the word literally carries a divine pedigree: a musician is, etymologically, a servant of the Muses.
