From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've wanted to get back into piano and to start off I was wondering if there was any decent FOSS piano software for linux?

I've never dived into this, but if electronic keyboards are just glorified midi-controllers, I'd have to think you could find a FOSS solution. If they're not simply midi-controllers, I wouldn't begin to know. I'd imagine you might have an easier time with keyboards from the 90s or whenever.
