The 3.14 Song: A Musical Interpretation of Pi

My sister was born on March 14th. And she’s a math teacher. Plus, she married a numbers guy, and they’re both delightfully math geek-y. So you better believe they celebrate Pi day on 3.14. From hanging out with them, I actually have Pi memorized to twelve decimal points, which is more than I thought I could do: 141592653589, and no, I didn’t cheat.

In honor of Pi Day, Musician Michael Blake transcribed the mathematical constant into music, with one standing for the root note of a scale etc. It takes a while to get going, but the results are amazing. Be sure to watch through to the end.
