20 years experience ( Degree in music )

As other answers said, it's definitely possible to play octaves on a violin. It does take a good bit of left hand dexterity, so playing octaves comfortably is a moderately advanced skill. You can also do other double stop intervals, such as thirds, fifths, and sixths.

Hi, I want to learn to play the violin, and I am not sure which violin to go for as a beginner. I don't have any local shop nearby, so I probably would have to order online. Can someone help with which violin I should buy?
You should always go to the store and check out yourself by playing on different acoustic instruments. Even if they look the same, the sound won't! Play by yourself and pick the one you like.
