So long as such a woman leader is under the formal supervision of (an) elder(s) of the church, a woman may lead musicians in worship.
A woman may play piano, solo, as a accompaniment to the congregational singing. (No, I am not EP, but IP - "inclusive psalmody". Nor am I against instruments in worship, though I believe that if a congregation is strong enough to sing without them, praise God for that!)
If there is a defined hymnal/psalter approved by the elders, a music director of either gender may select hymns, though ideally even these should be approved by the pastor. (There is at least one "hymn" in the Trinity Hymnal which should NOT be sung in a Christian worship service.)
As a former music director (male) who led a "worship team" in an OPC (rare), we had a limited repertoire of hymns (~ 50), and they were sound enough that any were appropriate for any service.
