The FluidSynth part would be trivial, as both Maemo and Meego-Harmattan are  
Linux distros with ALSA and PulseAudio support. The piano keyboard widget is 
multi-platform, so it would be be trivial to port as well. Qt 4.7 is already 
available for Maemo. The tricky part would be the "Qt Quick Components" 
library [1], that is not available on Maemo, AFAIK. Anyway, I don't have a 
N900, so I'm not going to try the port myself.
