Faire face à la musique est une traduction littérale de la locution américaine : to face the music. La locution faire face à la musique n'a pas cours en France. On y dit, pour exprimer la même idée : faire face ou tenir tête à l'orage, à quelqu'un; braver les reproches, les conséquences, être prêt à subir les conséquences de ses actes, etc. 2, record 2, French, - faire%20face
