The Minecart with Note Block is made by shapelessly crafting a Minecart with a Note Block.
When the Minecart with Note Block is on an Activator Rail, and that Activator Rail is powered, the Minecart with Note Block will produce a sound.
The instrument of the sound produced by the Minecart with Note Block depends on whatever block is beneath the Activator Rail.
The pitch of the sound is adjusted the same as with a normal Note Block: right clicking / performing Use Action to increase the pitch by a semitone, wrapping around after 24.
The beginning of each sound produced by the Minecart with Note Block is delayed by one-fortieth of a second, or half of a game tick, compared to sounds produced by normal Note Blocks. This means that using both normal Note Blocks and Minecarts with Note Blocks, one can create musing in 4/4 time.
This might be something the redstone music makers would find useful (although adding an ability to adjust the pitch on the fly might also be appreciated).
[Allowing passage over a detector rail to retune the pitch by one step each time might be a way to achieve this.]
Even with the utility to this group of players, whether the utility of the proposed addition is great enough to move it sufficiently far up the list to actually be added seems questionable….

WARNING: I have an extemely "grindy" playstyle; YMMV — if this doesn't seem fun to you, mine what you can from it & bin the rest.
