Guidelines
"The music" in the context of this advanced relationship should be interpreted as the creation of the sequence of notes used to make a tune. The lyrics are handled separately, by the lyricist relationship type. Once a tune is written, it might well be arranged or rearranged (including adding new notes), but this doesn't count as writing "the music"; instead, this is covered by the arranger relationship type.
