It's my experience that trained musicians tend to follow the given rules of their chosen instrument more often, whereas someone self taught will use exploration to get a desired result, and exploration can wield some unexpected results. You could call it creativity, but most often it's just a vehicle for expression either way. Trained or untrained, ability lies within the person holding the instrument and their understanding of music. SOMEONE had to start making the given rules, and it is quite possible there are people that have come afterward that have the same realizations without being told, as the ones who made them.
