I had to look up AICE to see what it is

Some music classes ARE academic. Are these performance classes? If not, then they are academic.

Does she want to go to conservatory/music school or college/university? BM or BA?

For a BM, she is fine taking lots of music. Personally, I think that pursuing a strong interest and having a strong focus in an area like music is also a plus in applying to colleges, regardless of expected major.

For a BM she will need a portfolio of some kind for composition (3-4 pieces). For a college she will be able to do an arts supplement.

If she is not taking science or foreign language, and has math, English , gov and economics on board (is she done with history?), it would seem that she could follow interests and take the electives she wants, at least in my view.
