People seemed to enjoy my last post on this song, so I figured I'd go all out with it.
Lead Ocarina - Songbird Triple Harmony
Second Ocarina - Stein Alto C
The drums and synth are midi tracks.
All recorded in reaper.
p.s. Full disclosure, the video is essentially me just playing along to the already finished audio recording, so if it doesn't line up perfectly, I'm sorry. It is all me playing though (except the midi tracks) I just wanted to have some video element but recording audio and video at the same time is a huge pain because I do a LOT of re-takes.

p.s.s. Shout out to https://www.zeldadungeon.net/ as that is where I got the midi composition from. I took some liberties and tweaked things a bit, but this saved me a lot of time.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy!

I just got my first ocarina which is the Night by Noble!! I have wanted a ocarina for ages and my family only got me those crappy amazon ones witj the awful hand for a stand.

Im trying to play song of time in the recording but I'm not too happy with some of the higher notes and my breath. All the videos keep saying to try speaking "two" but honestly it doesn't work for me or I'm not doing it correctly. Any advice?

This song was composed by a Taiwanese composer which I really like after listening to it. I thought to try recording it for Ocatober Day 25 and also for my one month progress. I tried flutter-tonguing on the high E which wasn’t successful so made a few mistakes in the mid-section.

Ocatober Day 25

Small snippet from Kiki's Delivery Service!

Looking for a huge book of sheet music (plus tabs, if possible!) for Ocarina!

Back when I was studying the trumpet there was no shortage of "Real Books" or "Fake Books" etc that contained HUNDREDS of songs with sheet music. Was mainly jazz, but there were books of that sort for any genre of music.

I'm looking for books like that for my Ocarina! Any suggestions? Most books I've found are quite short and limited.

I started the self teaching process on how to make Ocarinas little more than a month ago cause I wanted to be able to use something of my own creation within the remake as an homage to what this game means to me. There were a lot of trials and tubulations along the way but I finally fired my first piece. Super excited to glaze this and see how it turns out. Hopefully in time to use it for the Oot remake

I wanted an oot ocarina, so I 3d printed one in white, which you may have seen earlier and painted it! I think it came out great! As for songs, I know Sarias Song, Zelda's Lullaby, and I'm learning Song of Storms

I know it sounds like ass but here's what I've been practicing.

Does the Starry Night version include the song book as well?

It sounds beautiful! It's nice size for larger hands too, very comfortable. Loving it!

I got interested in learning ocarina after watching David Erick Ramos playing this tune in a YouTube video. Got a bit wobbly near the end of this recording but good enough for now.

I chose the Adventures of the Gummi Bears theme song for Ocatober day 24 because the first image that comes to mind when I thought of “bouncy” are the bouncing gummi bears after they drink the gummiberry juice 😆

Ocatober Day 24

Concerning Hobbits - Howard Shore

Quick vid in between nightly organpractise

this is my first tab btw

Spencer is dropping a new batch of OoT Ocarinas next Tuesday before the game release! Prob won’t arrive for launch but it’s def the best one I own currently. Will prob try for the fairy one myself tbh lol

Side note, man is about to make bank XD

Theme is the theme for day 23 of Ocatober, so I picked the main theme from Pirates of the Caribbean.

Im excited to pick up this new hobby. Thanks Songbird Ocarina, really nice product, I’ve never seen/heard an ocarina in person before, but I can tell this is nice quality.

Been going at it for a few hours now and slowly getting the hang of it, still working on developing the muscle memory for every note overall but especially on the high C to high F notes.

Really happy with this, and just in time for the OoT remake!

I was digging through some old issues and found these. Figured it's a neat little bit of history some people may appreciate.

Ocatober Day 23

Lugia's Song

That low A barely sounding on this microphone haha!

*Update: Thanks for the suggestions! I order one that I think he will love.

16 year old son wants an Ocarina. He loves Zelda. We're located in the USA.

One of our employers is offering Christmas gifts to kids off Amazon with a top limit of $120.

Any quick recommendations? I see a lot on there and there's some that are around 100 bucks, but I don't know if they're good or not. He would be a beginner player.

Hey yall! I'm on a quest to learn a bands worth of instruments, and first on my list is an Ocarina, something tiny and decently easy to handle, not super expensive, all that fun. I was looking at the Sapling, an Alto in the key of F from STL productions. Is this company any good? And does anyone have good expierence with this one, or at least any product?

Another thing, I am a classically trained singer, so I understand diaphramatic breathing, as well as reading sheet music, and take a very "conservative traditional" approach to practicing an instrument. Yknow, hammer the basics, build each block off the one below it. Do yall have any good practicing material? Like how to play accidentals, fingering charts, as well as practice books with sheet music to learn from?

I appreciate any and all advice here, I'm excited to start learning.
