Thank you very much for all the replies, especially to Bob. The "TeX"
line in the preamble was the most important piece. I did use
musixtex -F "xetex" -p 312a.mtx
after that, which did yield the correct result. Almost. The only problem
is, that the letter "ľ" does not appear in the PDF output. It does not
seem to be an issue with Cormorant Garamond, as the same goes for PDF
output provided by Dirk (which does use the default font). Is there a
way to make sure that unicode characters will get through the whole
rendering process? I can't find any clue to that in the documentation,
and musixtex is very convenient, but it obviously does a lot of stuff
and I don't see anything related to this in the terminal output, or in
the logs. The correct text (with ľ) is present both in the .pmx and .tex
files generated by musixtex.
I can reproduce the problem with the character "ľ" missing in the pdf
output in my texlive environment. My searches for solutions in tex
stackexchange and similar places were not successful. I wonder, however,
whether the plain TeX extension 'Csplain' (Czech and Slovak in plain
TeX) might be something worth looking at. Csplain is part of texlive.

I've been successfully using latex for a while to prepare music editions
containing music and text elements (like critical notes). I'm using
\includegraphics to add pdf music examples into the text and \includepdf
to include multiple page pdf (scores) while adding latex style page numbers.
A recent example is a modern edition of Danish language cantata by
Heinrich Ernst Grosmann (late 18th century cantor at the cathedral of my
home town Aaarhus)
