Note Block
minecraft:note_blockThe note block is a wooden redstone component that emits a musical sound when attacked, used, or powered by a redstone signal. Right-clicking cycles its pitch through 25 semitones, and the block directly beneath it selects one of 16 instruments, giving builders up to 400 distinct notes to compose with.
