Instrumentation of a particular work?

Can this property also be used to record the instrumentation of a particular work (when no sufficiently specific subclass of work (Q386724) exists)? --DSGalaktos (talk) 20:09, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Isn't that the status quo? What I'd like is if it could be used additionally for performers, for instance the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain (Q2034396). Arlo Barnes (talk) 04:21, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

I think both uses are good. --Infovarius (talk) 20:15, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
