actually, it might work better with the pipe and the word panpipe exist upon opening screen, and that as each note is played the stars starts to appear and gets stronger with the tone, this happens sequentially until all six stars (members of the teen, reach full brightness/intensity). Then all notes are played together as a chord and the word production appears. You could have it play a little playful tune as it goes off screen also if you wanted.
Also, was a little confused when i first saw your first place contest entries with the pied piper, since what he plays isn't really a panpipe which is greek origin and literally played by pan, but supposedly a flute.Makes a good character though, i guess. But, if that is what you were really going for, I guess I am way off base.
