Just a coincidence, but we were discussing some of the basics of the bard class in another thread just a little while ago: Anyone playing the Bard?
Bard is a great group healing/support class, but isn’t as good for targeted healing (since all of the heals are auto-targeted). It seems to be best for solo fights, some dungeons, and as a secondary/support healer for raids. I see musketeers in solo fights, some dungeons, and as primary/tank healers for raids.
