FL Studio

I would recommend getting FL Studio Producer Edition or Signature Bundle and use (free) VST instruments and samples/soundfonts for piano.
Then you don’t need a piano keyboard, but you can simply get a MIDI controller keyboard to hook up to your FL Studio software to play the sounds on that.
Check FL Studio here: http://demo.flstudio.com
You can buy it with a 10% discount on your first order from image-line with this promo link for new customers: https://support.image-line.com/jshop/shop.php?offer=Default&promo=BACJBAA468
The free Kore Player has some great sounds you can use: http://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/producer/kore-player/
Also here are some nice free drum sounds for your beats:

not too familiar with the piano and all its components but i do know a few good softwares you can try out….Audacity is my favorite (mostly because i took the time to learn all of it - which is key) and Mix Craft…..Audacity was a little hard to pick up on but easy once you learn it, and Mix Craft is pretty easy to learn

audio loo is right
thats pretty much what i was gonna recomend
a version of FL studio that you can afford or even the demo with free vst plugins
midi controllers ( keyboards piano) can be cheap or expensive but worth it either way.
i use a roland 66 key. not sure what model with fl studio. its great. but fl studio is great
