The first thing I notice is "from winsound import …"  Could that be a WINDOWS library which might not work on a Macintosh?

Looking at this, /Volumes/PICKLES/School/... that looks like a Mac filesystem mount point name to me.  Looks like you're using something that works on Windows at school, then trying to use it on a non-Windows system at home.

Try looking for a sound library which works on all platforms.  Failing that, look for something that works on a mac.

As a side note, you probably want to replace all those Beep() calls with some code which reads in a set of note values as data.
