An Application Program to Play a CD

[W. Watson]

How difficult would it be to write a Python program that would play a 
specific track on a CD from say 8 am to 6 pm each weekday on a PC's speaker, 
and switch tracks each day? That is, what library capabilities might be able 
to do that. Are they already available.

Extra points. Now imagine the same as above, but the program should answer a 
  phone and play the track for the day while someone is holding the call, or 
would be given the option to connect to the operator, say, or listen to the 
recording?

To get a bit specific, our science museum would like to buy the monthly set 
of StarDate programs. Each program is about 2 minutes long and there's one 
for every day of the month. There seems to be no such commercial software to 
automate this process.
