Like you, I would expect that to work, but I read the info page again. 
It says about --upgrade:

   Note that this upgrades package to the latest version of packages
      found in the distribution currently installed.

And the latest version of musescore is 4.0.2, so it tries to install that.

So I guess the right command would be:

guix package -m /home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/musik.scm --profile 
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil

I actually meant /home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil/manifest and not 
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/musik.scm, but now I don't need it anymore.
