Morphology
This is a straightforward noun–noun compound where 'music' modifies 'paper' to indicate paper used for music notation; a B1 learner who knows 'music' and 'paper' can infer this meaning. The compositional pattern (thing-for-purpose) is common cross-linguistically and follows typical English compound formation, so the sense is immediately comprehensible.
Etymology
Music paper is paper printed with lines for writing music notes. The name comes from the simple picture of paper already made for music, so it is ready when you want to 'write' a melody.
