The problem is twofold: This print shop doesn't stock any cream- colored A3 paper which would be nice, and the finished sheet music is almost *too* sharp.

So what I'm looking for is a bit more smudge, a bit of roughness, some printing
artefacts.

I guess you get the right paper at an artists supplier.
If you need really much, ask at a printshop for samples and if they would order for you.

I don't think you get to "feel the print" in any literal sense with
traditionally engraved scores -- the ink is in the depressions, remember...

Depends on the ink. There are "thick" gravure inks. (for artists, not industrial print)

But I'm sure that there are PostScript driven
etching devices for this purpose.

There are - for industrial gravure printing. But if you don't sell your scores in millions, that doesn't make sense. ;-)

There are different methods of "computer to gravure cylinder"...
