Haydn's "Farewell" symphony has a nice little math trick. The story is that the concerts that the orchestra were going on too long so in the last part of the Farewell he starts subtracting players,one or two, at a time until there are few left. They just get up and walk off.
Also, there is Cage's work "4:52" where a piano player just sits there for 4 minutes and 52 seconds with nothing happening except closing the piano. That could be thought of as a study of time and space.

Here's a perfect song you can use that goes along with algebra. I heard it a long time ago. I'm sure you've heard the Queen song that it is sung to - it's very popular.
We Will Graph You (parody of "We Will Rock You" by Queen)
Buddy you're tryin' to draw a straight line,
For the m and the b that we're assigned,
On the y-axis, you see, put your pencil on the b,
And one more point will guarantee that...
We will, we will graph you! We will, we will graph you!
So now that you've got, the y-intercept;
Here is how we plot the rest of it,
You go up with the rise, across for the run,
Plot the other point, and then you're done, singin'...
We have, we have graphed you! We have, we have graphed you!
Hope this helps.

Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
Your digits are unending,
Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
No pattern are you sending.
You're three point one four one five nine,
And even more if we had time,
Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
For circle lengths unbending.
Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
You are a number very sweet,
Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
Your uses are so very neat.
There's 2 Pi r and Pi r squared,
A half a circle and you're there,
Oh, number Pi
Oh, number Pi
We know that Pi's a tasty treat.
(to the tune of "Oh Christmas Tree")
