SuperCollider (http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/), Chuck
(http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/), Q (http://q-lang.sourceforge.net), and
apparently nowadays even Java (http://java.sun.com) and Python
(http://www.python.org). There are probably at least a dozen others. Did
you check Dave's Linux audio pages (http://linux-sound.org)?
