See issue 4702. After it passes, you can say something like

(define semitones->pitch
(make-semitone->pitch
(music-pitches #{ c cis d dis e f fis g gis a ais b #})))
You can use any other coverage of the semitone space as well for the
lookup. Or add quartertones into the mix. Or use "bad octave" notes
like bis or ces for lookup.
