e.g. SuperCollider can do that:

The relevant help files:
http://doc.sccode.org/Classes/MIDIIn.html
http://doc.sccode.org/Classes/String.html#-systemCmd

And a working code samle:

test.sc
----------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env sclang

({
	var midii, noteOn;

	MIDIClient.init;

	noteOn = {|src, chan, num, vel|
		if(chan == 0, {
			"./test.sh".systemCmd;
		})
	};

	MIDIIn.addFuncTo(\noteOn, noteOn);
}).value;
---------------------------------------------

test.sh
---------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/bash

echo "bang!"
---------------------------------------------
