iPhone XS didn't transfer my music to new iPhone 16 Pro

My music was not transferred to my new iphone. I had an iphone XS and I now have an iphone 16 Pro. Most of my music I downloaded from actual CDs and stored it onto my laptop. When I bought the iphone XS, I had it transferred to that iphone. (I don't remember how I did it.) Now, I can't seem to figure out how to get it to my new iphone. At first, it showed a shadow of all of my music. But then when I went into settings, I signed into my apple account. All of those shadows disappeared. How do I get my music put onto my new phone?
