Today we bring you a fascinating creation by MusicalWolfe: a fully functioning music box, made with pistons, note-blocks and redstone! Never missing a beat, the machine plays Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" with a rotating sheet of glass and redstone. Sit back, relax and enjoy!

they give power to all note blocks and when a glass comes it goes out and when a wool comes it go on.
Like so:
----| /----o
- Redstone
| Block
nothing
/ Repeater
o Note block
see? when a block comes it goes on and when glass comes.
----U /----o
/\
|
Red stone can give power to glass so the note block don't play.
U Glass
see? :D So you can change the wool blocks to anything that can have red stone power.

Place a door between 2 walls, and on one side, put a switch or run a current to a block that is touching the door, when you run current to the block, it can travel through and power the door.
The current doesn't actually go through the block, it [i]powers[/i] the block. Anything touching a powered block can be triggered. This creates the illusion that it is going through the block.
Glass cannot "hold" the current though. So a break is created when a glass block enters. Once wool is placed in the way, the wool becomes charged, so the touching note block is triggered.

I had a similar idea (perhaps the same) a couple of days ago on the 3rd, I even made a sketch (quickly, so no judging on it's quality or my handwriting!): https://plus.google.com/103359532797878915218/posts/REjvRXmWNph#103359532797878915218/posts/REjvRXmWNph
Good job on getting it done first, however. I was going to cheat and wait until Wireless Redstone was updated to 1.7 so that the note blocks could be hidden in a house far away without having to dig huge tunnels.
