nibble of the status byte gives the type of message
--------------(in this case a note on).
(2) : The
second nibble of the status byte tells the receiving

(3) : The
first data byte after a note on gives the value of the
---------------note to be played (here it is Middle C, which
is 60).

(here the value is 63 out of a maximum of 127).
