There is no LaTeX \center command. The normal command is
\begin{center}
[Here put what should be centered]
\end{center}
If even this does not work, try:
\begin{center} \begin{minipage}{260mm}
[Here put what should be centered]
\end{minipage} \end{center}
The effect of the minipage is to hide all layout commands issued by
musixtex from the LaTeX wrapping. It is as if you had one big
box of that width.
