Concatenate audio files [Python 2.7]

Question

Is there any way to concatenate or merge two audio files into one?

Requirements : Must use built-in modules only [may use PyGame]

Audio File format : .wma OR .wav OR .mp3

I have looked at many questions now and found solutions that involved downloading modules (which I do not prefer).

Any help would be welcome.

you are right @MaxU, i'll make some changes to the framing of the question! — qwerty, Mar 06 '16 at 10:29
if i do that won't the wav header pose a problem after all i am talking about audio and not text files — qwerty, Mar 06 '16 at 10:34
`cat file1.mp3 file2.mp3 > merged.mp3`. More info here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6222225/using-cat-to-join-mp3-files-what-is-this-black-sorcery - mp3s seem to be a bit special. — timgeb, Mar 06 '16 at 10:39

I make some research and found this.

#import libraries
from glob import iglob
import shutil
import os
#create path variable
PATH = r'C:\music'
#create everything.mp3
destination = open('everything.mp3', 'wb')
for filename in iglob(os.path.join(PATH, '*.mp3')):
    shutil.copyfileobj(open(filename, 'rb'), destination)
#make them all together with for
destination.close()
#close file

from here.

I actually managed to join two Flac files by just concatenation as long as the two files were produced by the same encoder:

audio1 = open("audio1.flac", "rb").read()
audio2 = open("audio2.flac", "rb").read()
audioJoin = audio1 + audio2
audioFinal = open("audioFinal.flac", "wb").write(audioJoin)
