I hope, you didn't use pure MusiXTeX, but PMX (if there are less than
8 voices). PMX may help you much if you are not used to typeset music.
And PMX knows a lot about typesetting music which you have not to know
if you use PMX.

That will not be easy because it's wrong. First comes the "Akkolade"
or "Klavierklammer", then the clefs, then the key, then the meter
and then the leftrepeat.

Have a look at http://www.gmd.de/Misc/Music/ Under "MusiXTex"/"Add-ons"
you can find an example for typesetting scores where this problem has been
solved. (You have to provide enough space to the left of the music and
supply the names using \ateverystaff, \zcharnote, ...)
Hope this hilft -- Werner
