I may be wrong, but I think the "cd" needs to be part of the same  
shell call as the "cat",  since the result of the "cd" is not  
persistent across the calls, so:

answer folder "Where are the mp3-files to Concatenate?"
put it into sourcefolder
ask file "What is the path to the resulting file?"
put it into targetpath
get shell("cd" && QUOTE & sourcefolder & QUOTE & cr & "cat *.mp3 >"  
&& QUOTE & targetpath & QUOTE)


Best,
