RE: Influx: Digital Piano
You NEED aftertouch. It controls the felt, when you release the key the felt touches the string and the note decays. The pressure you keep on the key controls the felt -> aftertouch.
Aftertouch is also needed so you can strike the key twice without letting it decay - like in the start of "fur elise".
Also you need proper aftertouch, not just channel aftertouch because each piano key has separate felt. Problem with running this form of aftertouch is that it clogs the midi-channel.
Another thing, she will need pedals one the keyboard, most keyboards have this offering.
