If you see C+ in relation to piano music, it USUALLY means the key of C major or a C major chord. By contrast, you could also see c- meaning C minor. Upper case is usually used with the major and lower case for minor.

Unfortunately, the plus sign is also sometimes used to mean C augmented (which is why I use the term"aug" or "x" to denote an augmented triad).

What note is the violin on the piano Like a flute may be a C flute are violins only soprano and if so what are they in relation to the piano?

They are in the same key--they are both concert pitched instruments (in Concert C Major.) This means that a Note on Violin is the same note played on the piano. For example, the clarinet is a concert B-flat pitched instrument, and because the Piano is Concert C pitched, if you played a C on the piano, it wouldn't be the same not as a C on the clarinet. Hope this helps :)
