fluidsynth 1.1.9 also requires glib. SDL2 is an optional requirement of 
fluidsynth's most recent development version, which hasn't even been released 
yet. As with every optional requirement, you can disable it by passing 
-Denable-sdl2=0 to cmake.

This is a crippled version of fluidsynth, which is hard-coded to report as 
1.1.9.

It demonstrates how to use cmake to cross compile an upstream version of 
fluidsynth for Android. Due to lacking contributions and my lacking knowledge, 
information on how to integrate this into an IDE like Android Studio are 
currently missing. But I'd guess all you need to do is placing the .so files 
into your project structure depening on the target architecture they've been 
built for.
