Definition
In a very beautiful or attractive way. It can also mean in a very pleasing, skillful, or effective way.
Usage & Nuances
Often describes how someone sings, plays, writes, or decorates: 'beautifully sung', 'beautifully written'. It is more expressive than 'very well' and often adds a sense of elegance or emotional effect. Don't use it for every good performance; sometimes 'well' sounds more natural.
