Morphology
The meaning 'an educational institution specializing in music' is directly derived from the constituents 'school' (an educational institution) and 'music' with 'of' simply linking the field; there is no idiomatic shift. This noun + of + noun compositional pattern is common across languages, so a B1 learner who knows the component words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
School of music paints a simple picture: a school where students gather to practice and get lessons in music. So it means 'a place where people learn music'.
