A unique five hole ocarina formed at the Clayground, complete with an audience of friendly ladybugs.
Hand sculpted from speckled mid-fire ceramic clay, glazed with a combination of textural and smooth glazes, finished with gold lustre.
Scale: E♭ Dorian Mode
Notes: Low E♭, F*, G♭, A♭, B♭, C, D♭, High E♭, High E
*achieved by partially covering hole
This five-hole tuning system is intuitive to play, yet contains a surprising amount of depth for those willing to search. Fingering order is modelled in a flute/clarinet/saxophone style, beginning with the right hand and using the left hand to access the highest notes. Finger instructions provided upon purchase.

Important Info:
This ocarina is available for demo and purchase at Tanglewood Gallery and Shoppe, 361-363 Mount Dandenong Tourist Rd, Sassafras VIC 3787. Purchasing via this page will do nothing :)
Max hole diameter is roughly 14mm - this is larger than most conventional ocarinas. Visit Nadia at Tanglewood and ask for a demo play to test it with your fingies!
