It's an interesting idea. I'm (also) a musician, and though certainly sheet music is subject to interpretation, it's a pretty accurate representation.

So, if the instruments are the hardware and the toolkit, and the interpreter is the compiler, then it's more or less true that music is the object and the sheets are the source.

Similarly, one may consider a MIDI file source code for music.
