The ocarina is an oval-shaped vessel flute made up of four to 13 finger holes and a mouth tube projecting from it. It has a cavity that serves a Helmholtz resonator that reverberates the sound. Usually shaped like an animal, it can be made of ceramic, plastic, glass, or wood. It uses a special tablature for creating music.
The ocarina is one of the oldest musical instruments that dates back 12,000 years ago. It is an important instrument in Chinese and Mesoamerican cultures.
Chamber: Choose a two-chambered ocarina to double the standard number of notes to get a wider range of sound. Holes size: Look for an ocarina with holes in different sizes for a wider range of sound.
