GNU Solfege (Re: [linux-audio-dev] seeking minimal C++ library for ear-training)

Hi everyone. It's an honor to be read by you. I'm not a professional programmer, but I wrote some text-based C++ programs that quiz me on musical stuff, and was so pleased that I want to do something similar with musical tones. All I'll ever need is a library that will let me playback a sample at a certain set of frequencies -- like 6 at a time (bass tone, high tone, and a four-note chord) -- until keyboard input signals it to stop. In fact, even that's more than I need -- if playing a sample is hard, I'd be perfectly happy listening to square waves. I've looked at some audio libraries (OpenAL, Penguinsound, Sound Object Library) but they're all very intense, designed to do far more than I could even understand, let alone want. Is there a non-threatening, perhaps even easy-to-install, C++ library that will do what I have in mind? (In case it's relevant, I run Mandrake Linux 10.1 Official, KDE, ALSA, and an old Sound Blaster Live. I often go to the San Fernando Valley LUG, in Los Angeles, California.)
