Singly, one player at a time.
Printed over a section part where the line should pass to individual players rather than the whole section; it lasts until alle, Tutti or a similar word restores the group.
Einzeln asks for the intimacy and clarity of single players within an orchestral texture — solo strings rather than a section, one wind player rather than a doubled pair. It sits between Solo, which spotlights one player, and a reduced desk count. Make clear how many players you mean if it is not one per part, and mark the return to the full group.
Einzeln is one of 1755 terms in the Gradus musical dictionary: the words, abbreviations and instrument names that appear in printed scores, plus the vocabulary composers use to talk about them.
