I might be/would be/could be participating...If I had been...
If I had been serious about music when I was young, I might be/would be/could be participating in the concert now. (the concert is happening now)
Do all the variations sound natural?

I think you could go with either "might" or "could" since both suggest possibility. I would not use "would" because that is too definite. This is all an "if" discussion.
