If you want a "core language", Gambit Scheme/Termite is a good choice. 
For small/agile production, it's probably adequate. But if you want an 
industrial strength large-product software development environment with 
the same underlying concurrency semantics (more or less), you should 
probably be looking at Erlang/OTP. It's open source (but standardized by 
Ericksson) and has lots of infrastructure (compilers, interpreters, 
correctness analysis tools, databases, etc.)
