If you want high quality typeset music score, lilypond, possibly coupled
with LaTeX or ConTeXt, seems to be the best choice. abc, musictex and
similar tools seem to be better if you want very simple, traditional
rendering rather than the modern score style.
If you are looking for a graphical tool, Roseguarden seems to be the
best current option, and works with lilypond to produce high quality
score output.

Daniel
