   If you want to upgrade, you'll have to build the latest from source. 
It's not too difficult, but probably not what anyone would call 
"simple".  Skim through the instructions on the wiki to see if you want 
to try it:

   Once you get the hang of it, it will become easier.

   Customizations are kept in your home directory.  You shouldn't lose 
anything.  And you can keep the Ubuntu version of Rosegarden installed 
and run it anytime you want.
