No, the correct way to do it would be to allow you to set the 
position of the music system so that it would stay that way 
permanently without requiring altering your page layout or setting up 
a staff set just for that purpose.

While this last is pretty easy to do, it's still a workaround that is 
made necessary by a design decision that has little utility for the 
end user.
