For the Music Scholars section you might consider the Tam Tam suite,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Tam_Tam
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/TamTam

It includes Csound,

One would have to include and switch to the Sugar Desktop,
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/soas/
in order to use the current versions of Tam Tam.
