I've tried to connect Brams with aRts (including recompiling Brams), but I
couldn't make a go of it.

But I found a other solution:
First starting clavier and telling it to write its output to /tmp/midififo:
  clavier -o /tmp/midififo &

Then starting midisend and tell that it should use /tmp/midififo for input:
  midisend -f /tmp/midififo

First I tried to use stdin/stdout and a pipe with 
  clavier -o - | midisend -f -
but this didn't work (clavier starts to slow, and midisend times out).

So I can use clavier until I've bought a real keyboard.

Ciao, Rene
