Then you'll need a free soundfont player such as sforzando.

Btw. Kontakt 5 plays soundfonts but they appear to have dropped that feature from Kontakt 6.
Years ago I used 4front upright piano

If you don't mind paying then Truepianos is a good, reasonably inexpensive option

Those are ones I use or have used. There are newer free versions if you Google 'free piano vst'
The pianos I mostly use these days are Addictive Keys, or occasionally the NI pianos that come with Komplete Ultimate.
Some of their stuff has atmospherics like big reverts added so you might want to work through them to see for yourself.
I also bought an M-Audio Oxygene which was bundled with a vst called Xpand!2 which i have been very impressed with.
It might be worth seeing what came with yours?
I am also using the Roland Cloud (Free version) which i would also highly recommend - somehow the sounds just "lift" above a normal vst.
The other thing i've discovered is that it seems more economical to buy a midi controller with bundled synth than just to buy the software which took a while to get my head round.
Arturia Minilab 2 being an example where you get the keyboard and analog Labs lite for £90 odd quid at Andertons
