Well not being very musical, I can only offer this. xcircuit.
Yea I know, it doesn't sound musical but the guy who wrote it
is. The package is in slink. Here is the web page to check it out
http://bach.ece.jhu.edu/~tim/programs/xcircuit/
Here is a clip from the readme
The files psfiles/signal.lps and psfiles/musiclib.lps are examples
of alternate or additional object libraries. The library file lgf.lps
is used primarily by the lgf-to-ps conversion routines, but has some
different circuit objects in it.
As I recall he even has an example sheet of music in the examples
dir.
HTH, YMMV, HAND
