Correct Answer: tuning up
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
The phrase "balancing up their instruments" may be considered less accurate or idiomatic in the context of musicians preparing their instruments.

Tuning up refers to the process of adjusting the pitch of musical instruments to ensure they are in harmony and ready to be played.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: The musicians were tuning up their instruments.
