Well, beast (http://beast.gtk.org) is a modular synthesis environment

with integrated sequencer. However, the sequencing part is not as

modular as the synthesis part; as this seems to be a central idea for

you, you'd need to write the code for that.

If you prefer QT because it is C++: we're slowly migrating stuff from C

to C++.  The GUI of beast is Gtk+, though. However, the separation

between synthesis code and GUI code is rather clean, so you could

implement a Qt C++ GUI on top of the existing synthesis/sequencing code,

if you really wanted to.
And yes, I think unless you have a few years to spend only on coding

your project, I'd recommend working on some existing project, since

writing a modular synthesis app and sequencing and a good gui is a lot

of work.
