I still don't get it :?
Even if a musician can't write (litteraly) his or her music, she/he can still play it.
And by that, I mean: to create or to interpret, either.

The IQ test was not designed to measure creativity. Musical talent and musical creativity have nothing to do with IQ score. All anybody cares about is what the music sounds like.

This is comparable to saying "How will a poor musician do in an IQ test?" It really makes little difference, you can't infer one from the other.
