What kind of weird statement even is that? What about the first few notes of Fur Elise?

> There is a chord called "C major", but it's totally different to the note called "C".
... the E and G of the C major chord are prominent overtones of the note.
depends on the instrument. A pure sine wave at the frequency of C does not have any overtone.
I meant to add more to my top comment. I think the author does fairly well at their mission despite potential nit picks like that. It is really cool to see somebody learning and being excited about putting all the pieces together. The beautiful thing about music is you can go deeper and deeper as much as you want, and there are various competing ideas about what it is and how to talk about. Programming has a similar kind of depth to it.
