Unless I've misinterpreted your question, I think either :
        1. Mondrian - http://www.sci.ccny.cuny.edu/~brinkman/software/mondrian/
                OR
        2. Midge - http://www.undef.org.uk/code/midge/
will at least partially fill your needs.

This quote from the Mondrian homepage seems to suggest that it can be used for "real-time" use :
"Both MondrianLive and MondrianPM can be used as a vim plugin, effectively turning vim into a musical instrument."

This quote from the Midge homepage also seems relevant (although I'm not sure it can be used for "real-time" use):
        "[ Features include : ] An emacs mode with syntax highlighting for editing and compiling midge files and playing the resulting midi files (if you have a command line midi player). See README.elisp"
