yasr already has a sort of modular synth model. It should be fairly trivial to add another synthesizer. One route you could try is use yasr's emacspeak server compatibility mode and use espeakf.pl from espeakf.sf.net. However, I did not try this yet, so their might be incompatibilities. If this doesnt work, the necessary C code to interface yasr to festival directly shuld be writable in a leisure afternoon. Festival is really simple to interface with. You could for instance use popen(3) and directly write to the pipe, as gnome-speech and brltty do it.
