Answer

The violin plays some of the same notes as the piano, however all notes on the piano can not be played on the violin. Additionally, there are notes that are played on violin that cannot be played on the piano, e.g. micro-tones, quarter-tones, etc. The violin also has a more diverse set of techniques to manipulate sound, including pizzicato (or the plucking of the string), ponticello, and col legno (playing with the wood of the bow).

The violin is a very versitile musical instrument. It is most commonly seen as a member of the symphony orchestra and as a solo instrument. The music that we hear the violin play most often is the music of the great composers. While being quite capable of playing jazz or rock, our culture tends to appreciate the violin most playing this style of music.

No. Piano sheet music has 2 clefts per line, and violin sheet music has only 1 cleft per line. That being the case, Piano sheet music is roughly 2-3 times as many pages as violin sheet music.

However, both piano and violin read treble cleft, so you could have piano play the bass cleft and the violin play the treble cleft.

Today piano and violin sheet music are two very popular categories. So they can be easily found separately.

2nd Answer:

In case you are interested, the word is "Clef", not "Cleft".

Absolutely. In fact, just anything that can be played by an instrument can be played on piano as the 88 keys include the practical ranges of all instruments. Artists like Herbie Hancock even use the piano as a percussion instrument by plucking it's strings rhythmically.

Since piano and violin notation both use treble clef, you can play violin music on piano verbatum.

If they are transposed to a higher register, cello pieces can easily be played on the violin. However, the tone color between the cello and violin are very different, so many cello pieces would not sound as good on the violin .

Some of it, yes. Keep in mind that the note pictured on the guitar music is actually an octave lower though.

Yes. Pick the part (Treble is easier than bass if it's for violin) and you can play it!
