Below is some code I have hacked together for Snd to do this.
Compile snd with the "--with-guile" option, save your txt
above ("at: etc.") into a file called "score.txt", start
Snd, and paste the code below into the terminal you started
snd in.

Alternatively, you can save the code below into a
file, and use the "-b" option to start a gui-less
Snd which load and runs a specified script file.

(define (map-file filename func)
   (let* ((fd (open-file filename "r"))
          (line (read-line fd))
          (ret '()))
     (while (not (eof-object? line))
       (set! ret (cons (func line) ret))
       (set! line (read-line fd)))
     (reverse ret)))

(define* (fileplay seconds filename)
   (let* ((samples (seconds->samples seconds))
          (end (+ (mus-sound-frames filename) samples)))
     (for-each (lambda (ch)
                 (define fd (make-readin filename :channel ch))
                 (run
                  (lambda ()
                    (do ((i samples (1+ i))) ((= i end))
                      (out-any i (readin fd) ch)))))
               (iota (mus-sound-chans filename)))))

(define (create score samplerate channels outfile)
   (set! (optimization) 6)
   (primitive-eval `(with-sound (:srate ,samplerate :channels ,channels :output ,outfile)
                                ,@(map (lambda (start filename)
                                         `(fileplay ,start ,filename))
                                       (map string->number (map cadr (map-file score (lambda (l) (string-split l #\space)))))
                                       (map cadddr (map-file score (lambda (l) (string-split l #\space))))))))

(create "score.txt" 44100 2 "/tmp/test.wav")
