Sound science

The 200-plus steel strings inside a grand piano pull with a combined force of about 20 tonnes.

The strings pull as hard as the weight of three adult elephants, all day, every day, perfectly in tune.

Sound science

Mozart began composing music at age five — about the age most kids start Year 1.

Music he wrote as a child has now been performed for longer than most countries have existed.

Sound science

Sound travels through air at about 343 metres per second — that's how you can count the distance of a thunderstorm.

A fighter jet flying 'supersonic' literally outruns its own sound — people below hear it after it's gone.

Sound science

Almost every orchestra on Earth tunes to the same note: A at exactly 440 vibrations per second.

Press the A above middle C on any tuned piano anywhere in the world — it's the very same 440 wiggle-per-second sound.
