Hey! Tune. See, [music] music isn't just in here.

It's everywhere. Sound is incredible cuz it can pass through solid objects, but we can't see it happening. But imagine if we could.

Simon, can you place out your left hand for me, face up, and keep it nice and strong. If we could see sound passing through a solid object, I think it would look something like this. What?

>> [cheering] >> What? do you see why I find sound so cool? It's good.

Yes. >> But we're going to put them in the order from smallest to largest. Okay.

Oh, I like this game. But there's two tens, so >> Oh, yeah, actually separate. Okay.

Now, I told you all that I believe there's magic in music. And tonight I'd like to prove it to you. You see, I see cards like notes on a piano.

[music] There's 13 cards in a suit and 13 notes in an octave. I've labeled some keys here. KSI, we're going to use your randomly selected playing cards to play a melody.
