Can 演奏する also mean play back a recording


I looked up as 演奏する meaning to play (a song).

Does it only mean play a song as in 'perform' a song or can it also mean play
as in play back a recording?

Would this be valid?

演奏する only means you operate an instrument so that the melody is played. In
your example, you should most naturally use 流す ("broadcast, let it play") or
かける ("put on").

There is another word 再生する ("revive, play back") you may often see in software
UI where English would have "Play", but this one is more focused on the action
of having recording machines reproduce the audiovisual content, and may not
imply a human enjoys it.
