I need some help integrating code that plays a couple notes and code that plays tetris, so that the notes will play when a line is completed

This is the code for the music. I know the loop function needs to be removed, I was having trouble doing that.(I am a major beginner, they had us do an engineering project without teaching us any arduino programming, and I've been doing most of the hardware work for a group of 4 as well as programming)
int speakerPin = 9;

int length = 15; // the number of notes
char notes[] = "ccggaagffeeddc "; // a space represents a rest
int beats[] = { 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 4 };
int tempo = 300;

void playTone(int tone, int duration) {
for (long i = 0; i < duration * 1000L; i += tone * 2) {
digitalWrite(speakerPin, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(tone);
digitalWrite(speakerPin, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(tone);
}
}

void playNote(char note, int duration) {
char names[] = { 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'a', 'b', 'C' };
int tones[] = { 1915, 1700, 1519, 1432, 1275, 1136, 1014, 956 };

// play the tone corresponding to the note name
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
if (names == note) {
playTone(tones, duration);
}
}
}

void setup() {
pinMode(speakerPin, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
if (notes == ' ') {
delay(beats * tempo); // rest
} else {
playNote(notes, beats * tempo);
}

// pause between notes
delay(tempo / 2);
}
}

This is the pertinent part of the tetris code

/********************************************************************************/
/* Check for completed rows and clear them, then drop pieces above */
void dropFullRows(){
byte theGridBlink[16]; // this will be a copy of the fixed-piece grid, but with full rows empty
// alternating between it and the actual fixed-piece grid will make the full rows blink
int fullRows[4]; // to store the Y location of full rows. There can never be more than four at a time
int fullRowCount=0;
for (int row=0; row<16; row++){ // step through each row of the played grid
if (theGrid[row]==B11111111){ // if the row is full then
theGridBlink[row]=B00000000; // set this row in the blinking version of the grid to empty.
fullRows[fullRowCount]=row; // record the position of the filled row
fullRowCount++; // increment the count of full rows
}else{
theGridBlink[row]=theGrid[row];// if it's not empty, duplicate the row from the played grid
}
}


if (fullRowCount>0){ // if there is a filled row, blink all filled rows
for (int blinkCount=0; blinkCount<3; blinkCount++){
//blink the filled rows 3 times by alternating between the blink grid and the played grid
// this section for blink grid
matrixTop.clear(); // clear the top matrix
matrixBottom.clear(); // clear the bottom matrix
drawFixedPieces(theGridBlink); // draw the blink version of the grid
matrixTop.writeDisplay(); // update the top matrix
matrixBottom.writeDisplay(); // update the bottom matrix
delay(150);
// this section for played grid
matrixTop.clear(); // clear the top matrix
matrixBottom.clear(); // clear the bottom matrix
drawFixedPieces(theGrid); // draw the blink version of the grid
matrixTop.writeDisplay(); // update the top matrix
matrixBottom.writeDisplay(); // update the bottom matrix
delay(150);
}

// remove the filled rows and drop them
for (int i=0; i<fullRowCount; i++){ // we only need to do this for as many filled rows as there are
for (int copyRow=fullRows; copyRow>0; copyRow--){ // for every row above the filled row
theGrid[copyRow]=theGrid[copyRow-1]; // copy the row above into the one below
}
theGrid[0]=B00000000; // now that everything is bumped down by one, fill the top row with blanks
}


totalLines=totalLines+fullRowCount; // add the filled rows to the total line count

// add points to the score
int thePoints;
switch(fullRowCount){
case 1: // Single = 100 x Level
thePoints=100 * level;
break;
case 2: // Double = 300 x Level
thePoints=300 * level;
break;
case 3: // Triple = 500 x Level
thePoints=500 * level;
break;
case 4: // Tetris = 800 x Level
thePoints=800 * level;
break;
}

score=score+thePoints; // add the points to the total score


//increment the level every 10 lines
if (totalLines%10==0){
level++;
gravityTrigger--; // and with every level, decrease the trigger value at which stepCounter will drop the piece. This makes it faster with every level
}
}
}

If anyone could help me integrate the two, that would be so much help

Thank you for your time
