It isn't free/open source, but Transcribe! (yeah, the exclamation point 
is part of the name) supports linux, and can be used for both pitch and 
speed shifting, looping between marked segments, and will attempt to 
identify notes & chords. The ability to adjust playback speed with pitch 
correction (or adjust the pitch a set number of steps) is nice, but I 
think the looping is actually its killer feature.
