You could store the commands in a file (MyConfig.txt):

load MyPiano.sf2
select 1 0 0 0
select 2 0 0 0
...
select 15 0 0 0


You then start the synthesizer with:

$ fluidsynth -f MyConfig.txt

Note that the soundfont is loaded by the config file and not
in the command line. You need fluidsynth version >= 1.0.4 for
the -f command switch to work.
