You cannot do this via a direct connection between the devices. They can use wifi or you can restore one from a backup of the other.

There are a number of ways to transfer content to a new phone; all are described here→Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support. By far the easiest way is to use Quick Start; just position the new phone next to the old phone and it should prompt you to transfer all content.
The reason I ask is that the music wasn’t obtained thru Apple but thru an app I once had that seems to have shut down due to them not upgrading to stay compatible with updated iPhones. I’m just not sure if these files can even be moved. But it is at least 10 gigs of music files I wanted to keep.
If the music was associated with an app it was “owned” by the app, and won’t be accessible outside of that app. If you still have the discontinued app you can see if it has an export feature; otherwise, you are out of luck.
Thanks
Thanks Lyssa and Lawrence!
