For example, here's how you would use my python-rtmidi package [1] to
send a control change message for controlelr #1 (modulation) with value
127 to the first JACK MIDI port that contains the string "BCR 2000" in
its name:

import rtmidi
from rtmidi.midiutil import open_midioutput
from rtmidi.midiconstants import CONTROL_CHANGE, MODULATION_WHEEL

midiout, portname = open_midioutput(
        port='BCR 2000',
        api=rtmidi.API_UNIX_JACK,
        client_name="My test client")
midiout.send_message([CONTROL_CHANGE, MODULATION_WHEEL, 127])

If you want to use ALSA, just drop the 'api' keyword parameter to the
'open_midioutput' function.
