Music lovers! Cakewalk?

["s. keeling" <keeling@spots.ab.ca>]

I've a co-worker I'm trying to convert to Linux.  He's a musician, and
his primary app in $REDMOND is something called cakewalk.  I've no
idea what that is (I'm not a musician).  Is there anything in the
Linux/FOSS world that's equivalent/related/worth looking at?
Suggestions welcome.  "apt-cache search cakewalk" turns up nothing
useful (sarge).

Thanks.
