Hey, golf is a game where you only compete against yourself right? :)

k=readFile(0).split(' ')
q=!k[0][1]
r=k[1]
o=''
for(x=10;x--;){p=k[0].charCodeAt(0)-65+!q

s+=x>4&&!p|p%3?'###  ':x?' |   ':'_|___'}o+=s.substring(q,r*5+2)+'\n'}print(o)

Solution by gnarf; ported to Rhino (with a minor fix and formatting changes) by KirarinSnow; further chipped away by gnarf; error corrected by KirarinSnow. cache k[1] by cwallenpoole

Usage: $ cp input.in 0; rhino thisfile.js

I used modules of 2 to detect for a space or pound. ' ' is 32 % 2 = 0 '#' is 35 % 2 = 1 and since my conditional returned zeros for false I just multiplied the modules result.

Used the <| operator to shave off one space char. Used operator overloading to save another char.

The last example prints the standard keyboard, along with imaginary black keys on either end.

Octave, 153 154 155 158 159 162 172 180 186 185 188 1550 1551 1552 1553 1554 1555 1556 1557 1558 1559 1580 1581 1582 characters

Why use just C or C# or F# (or B or D) when you can program with a full Octave?

(wrapped every 60 chars for clarity)

x=5*scanf("%2c%d");for k=-8:0disp((s={[t="|   ###  ###  ","#
##   ",t" "]"|    ","|____"}{(k>-4)+!k+1})(1+mod(5*(y=x(2)>1
60)+(-y:x(3))+x(1),rows(s'))))end

Yes ... this solution really does compute the complex conjugate transpose of a string.

Usage: $ octave -q thisfile.m <input.in >output.out

Haskell: 212 211 208 characters

a="  |  "
b=" ### "
d=concat.cycle
e=d[b,b,a,b,b,a,b]
f=d[a]
t x s m n=map(take(5*read s+m).drop(5*length['@'..x]-n))[e,e,e,e,e,f,f,f,d["__|__"]]
u(x:'#':s)=t x s 2 4
u(x:s)=t x s 1 8
main=interact$unlines.u

It still assumes ascii-compatible letters (specifically, the sequence "@ABCDEFG"), but no longer requires Char.ord

PianoScript - 2 characters

It's a one-liner:

go

Usage:

PianoScript piano.ps G# 11

Output:

Since we can't pass parameters from dmd the input must be done in the code. Supports only up to 99 keys.
