The main difference between a piano and a keyboard is that a piano is an acoustic instrument with weighted keys, while a keyboard is an electronic instrument with unweighted (lighter) keys.1 The sound of a piano is produced and amplified physically, while keyboards have a variety of volume options and sometimes require amplification to create sound.2 The layout of keys on both instruments is identical, and the songs you learn to play on a piano will transfer directly to a keyboard, with little adjustment needed for small differences in the width of the keys or the amount of pressure needed to play them. Learning piano on a keyboard is possible, and the layout of keys is identical on both instruments.
