How about something like:
***********************
A score block simply consists of a single music expression. That music
expression may be followed by midi, header, layout and/or paper blocks.
For example:
\score{
...music expression...
}
or perhaps
\score{
...music expression...
\layout{...}
\midi{...}
}
