An iPhone can never serve as a music repository.
Hopefully your music is also somewhere else.
If you purchased your music from the iTunes Store, it can be re-downloaded from there to your new iPhone.

This is absolutely unsatisfactory. The files are there. There should be access to them. Even if they are converted into some proprietary format, there should be a supported migration process for retrieval.
Unsatisfactory or not, that’s the way iTunes works. You should have all the music on your computer, because that’s how it got to your old phone in the first place. Just sync it from your computer to your new phone→Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support
I have a new Phone 12. My old iPhone 6 has over 1000 tunes on it that have not transferred to the new phone. Many are Dutch Gramafone recordings from overseas. How can I transfer my music over to the new phone?
Some of the music was purchased from Apple Music and uploaded from my CD’s.
I synced my old phone and I see my old music on my laptop but when I change to my new iPhone 12 I am having trouble seeing the new phone on the laptop and getting it to sync?
I have an old iPod that has a lot of music (cd's). I no longer have the computer I used to put music on iPod. I would like to transfer the music over to my iPhone 12. Any suggestions on how I can do this?

If it is an iPod Classic you have access to the disk drive on it. You can connect it to your computer and copy the music to your computer over a USB cable by viewing the disk from your computer.
Otherwise you will have to rip it from the CDs to your newer computer.
The iphone is backed up, but the files are definitely long gone from when and where they were imported. There's no good excuse for Apple not to supply an Apple-supported process for accessing any of my own data on my device. There are 3rd-party apps that do this, but I shouldn't have to resort to a 3rd-party app for something this elementary. This is poor customer serivce.
Good excuse or not, it is a FACT that Apple does not provide a way to copy music from an iPhone to another iPhone. It is your opinion that there is no good excuse, but facts trump opinions all the time.
No I missed a check box. iPhone is suppose to save all the music you buy or download from your music library. Otherwise just listen to the radio.

My response above applies to you as well.
