A live performance can be changed by one of the participants. Think Jazz. The Music was the 'composition', the creation/manifestation of Arda is the
performance of that composition. Not all the performers may have been around when the piece was composed, but as long as they are around when it is being
played they can alter it - especially if they have the express permission of the composer/conductor to do that very thing.
