I imagine these features could be done with a music analysis framework like music21 (http://web.mit.edu/music21/)? It's scripted in python. Works with MusicXML, though. Another one that I would like to check out is the commercial (but inexpensive) one: http://www.melodicmatch.com. (Works with MusicXML, as well).
