Sounds like a fun project.

As far as the encoding goes, there's been some work done with
embedding midi data in Ogg, multiplexed with vorbis audio. You might
look at that[1] as a place to start. If you want something fancier,
the new OSC[2] protocol is popular with electronic musicians. It would
be fun to be able to route and store that through Ogg.

Keep us posted!
