If you only can learn one of them, I think it should be Scheme: You need to
understand Scheme in order to understand much of the c++ code, anyways.
In any case, you may find my master thesis useful, depending on which parts you
want to work with. See home.student.uu.se/ersa9195/report.pdf
It doesn't say much about back-end (layout), but it tells you a lot about how
the front-end (language, music representation) works.
The thesis work is currently in the process of being implemented.
