    I wanted the questioner to think about what he or she was asking and make a stab at rephrasing and putting the question into comprehensible English. I KNEW what the question was.

    Score is visual, two dimensional, written; music is auditory.

    From http://www.thefreedictionary.com/musical+score --

    Musical score - a written form of a musical compositionmusical score - a written form of a musical composition; parts for different instruments appear on separate staves on large pages; "he studied the score of the sonata."
