A very simple way to do this is the fluid~ external, which is a
polyphonic soundfont player. There are good and bad soundfonts
available all over the net, a good place is
http://www.hammersound.net/

Of course you could also directly run fluidsynth, but it's easier to
modify the fluid~ sound inside Pd IMO.

You can hear fluid~ in action using a cheesy piano soundfont (Gort's
Mini Piano, to tell the truth) here: http://footils.org/cms/show/44
