After a bit of fiddling, I got MIDI working on the Adafruit Music Maker VS1053 feather wing.
The hardware Serial1 port needs to be used, and set to 31250. This doesn’t work out of the box, so the way around it is to assign a baud rate and then change that to 31250. I figured this out by looking at another example that showed how to use custom baud rates.

Maybe this is of interest to the gen3 VS1053 library examples @ScruffR @peekay123 ?
