There is a problem with new wave.py.  On my system python is 2.0b1 and
/usr/bin/python is 1.5.2.  Here's a test:

$ python music3.py 
$ play test1.wav 
sox: WAVE header not found
$ file test1.wav 
test1.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data

$ /usr/bin/python music3.py 
$ play test1.wav      <--- plays ok.
$ file test1.wav 
test1.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 8 bit, mono
44100 Hz


The relavent lines in music3.py are:

        self.f = f = wave.open(filename,'w')
        f.setnchannels(1)
        f.setsampwidth(1)
        f.setframerate(self.framerate)
        f.setcomptype('NONE','Not Compressed')
