Answer 1

I don't think there's a way to play tunes¹ with "beep" in portable² Java. You'll need to use the javax.sound.* APIs I think ... unless you can find a third-party library that simplifies things for you.

^{1 - Unless your users are all tone-deaf. Of course you can do things like beeping in Morse code ... but that's not a tune.}

^{2 - Obviously, you could make native calls to a Windows beep function. But that would not be portable.}
