Voicing, guitar and keyboard playing together , sus chords

Hi Ryan, I am writing you from Germany.
Should the guitar player and the piano player agree which voicing they play especially when they use a lot of sus chords ans other “special disharmonic” chords.
The idea behind why I am asking is, it may sound bright and even if you play alone but what when other instruments coming in and they play their own stuff ?
Blessings
Stefanie

You can but you don't

You can but you don't necessarily have to agree on 'voicings' as long as the primary chords are the same. If the chord is an 'Emaj2', then everyone should most likely play that. If you wanted to add the 3rd of the chord along with the 2nd, you could to add some color, but it's not going the change the overall structure of the chord.
