There is already PythonInMusic but it is not up to date and includes too many packages of special interest that are mostly not relevant for scientific applications. Awesome-Python is large curated list of python packages. However, the audio section is very small.
Your contributions are always welcome! Please take a look at the contribution guidelines first.
I will keep some pull requests open if I'm not sure whether those libraries are awesome, you could vote for them by adding 👍 to them.
