It is very early in your college career, and because you are majoring in cs doesn’t mean you can’t do music, most schools have music programs for non majors, and you potentially also may be able to get a BA in music on an instrument with your BS degree. You could study privately, and in a masters program get an MM in an instrument…
A more fundamental question is, do you want to teach, or do you want to perform? A music ed degree is generally for someone who wants to become a public school music teacher (K-12), and the education there is about teaching kids in public schools, it includes things like general music classes, or instrumental music, and it requires knowing a number of different instruments to be able to teach them, it usually (I believe)involves learning band directing (ie marchign band), conducting, as well as teaching courses. Note that if you think you might want to teach privately (let’s say on violin and piano), you don’t need a music ed degree to do that, music ed against is primarily public school (some private schools ask for it, but many don’t IME). Please don’t go into music ed because you see it as a compromise between doing performance and having a job that has a steady income, do it because you want to teach. There are a lot of school music teachers out there who went that route because they wanted the steady job, and more than a few of them are bad teachers, frustrated performers 'forced to settle", and so forth (and that isn’t a knock on music teachers, there are dedicated, wonderful ones as well, and they are wonderful because they want to do it).
There are a lot of paths with music as others point out, and don’t ‘settle’ for music ed…do it because you want to. Music Ed is a discipline, it is different that music performance but still requires a lot of learning and effort, and you won’t do yourself or the students any favors if you don’t want to do that kind of teaching. Like I said, you can teach without an Ed degree if you want to teach privately or at a music school or whatnot…
