Folk music was still a thing, and I imagine there were plenty of "indie" musicians within those scenes, but they generally couldn't make a living doing that, their instruments would have been limited to relatively cheap ones (so no pianos or organs), and none of them would have been literate enough to write anything down.

Yeah, you would for sure have to have an education and lots of money for a music education as well. Even though Mozart is often portrayed as some kind of beggar, it's more than likely completely false
