Piano/Keyboard, question 2!?

unlike most genres of music, classical piano is very demanding. you need to have something to play with that is good enough for the complex songs and arpeggios that you will play. When I started learning the piano, I practiced on a good 88 key keyboard. After three months, I had to get a piano as the keybboard was not the same as a real piano. That being said, I would suggest that you at least get an 88 key keyboard. I would also have a goal to eventually buy a real piano as this will help you a lot. If you are planning on performing, be sure to get a keyboard that has weighted keys that will simulate the feel of a real piano. It won't be the exact same, but it will be good enough to practice on until you get a piano.
