I believe that some of the people involved are, at least college-level
educators.
The English index is here:

When I try to go there, at the moment, I get a piece of garbage text;
viewing source shows this heading in the source:

The Portuguese page is working fine:

Here's a page in their wiki with download links for Musix 3 beta:

Different platforms will have multitude of
problems relating to
testing, different versions of libraries, drivers, software...
I use a panorama creator called Hugin. I use Debian Sid on 2 different
machines, identical distros, identical version of Hugin. On one machine,
Hugin works flawlessly. On the other, Hugin silently dies whenever I
attempt to preview a panorama. The difference? Display hardware! The one
where it works has NVidia video, the one where it crashes has Intel
video. Hugin is multiplatform (Linux, Windows, OS X) and has more
developers, but even they're having problems keeping the OS X release
up-to-date.
Sorry, doesn't help the problem of audio software and hardware. Have a
friend who has tried 3 different hardware systems and 2 different
versions of Windows (XP and 7) trying to get his commercial pro audio
software to work reliably. He's about given up.
I've had some success using live Linux audio distros like Musix on
different hardware (including one of the systems my friend's commercial
pro audio software had problems with). I think Musix is created by
educators, perhaps they could work with you to produce a live CD/DVD
that would allow students to boot their home computers and work and save
things onto a thumb drive that they could take back and forth between
home and school?
