But after a few months or may be in a year, depending on how soon you pick up things, you will realize that 61 keys are not enough, especially if you are playing a lot of classical based songs.

There are a lot of famous classical pieces that you cannot play on a keyboard with 61 keys. In that case, the next best option is to go in for a keyboard with 76 keys. An electronic keyboard with 76 keys should help you play most of the classical songs. A 76-key keyboard is also known as a 6 and a half octave keyboard.

Ideally a complete piano length i.e. 88 keys would be an ideal keyboard for playing all the classical songs, but then if you are also looking for some portability, a 76-key keyboard will be helpful. It will still be much easier to carry around than an 88-key keyboard.
