If you are looking at a command-line tool for this, sox can concatenate files:

I believe there is a way you can insert silence at the beginning of a
file, but you'll have to read the man page on that.

On the other hand, Ardour is a perfectly fine way to do what you want
to do, especially if you need to do any last minute
leveling/compression or EQing to keep the tracks consistent
