You have to use abbreviation (singular form):
\setupsynonyms[abbreviation][…]
> \abbreviation{MT}{The Musical Times}
> \abbreviation{AMw}{Archiv f\"{u}r Musikwissenschaft}
> \abbreviation{GMO}{Grove Music Online}
>
> %this works
> \abbreviation{EM}{\em Early Music}
> %This doesn't
> %\abbreviation{\em EM}{\em Early Music}
Use the optional argument:
\abbreviation[EM]{\em EM}{…}
