I got my water element ocarina on friday as an early Christmas present from my boyfriend. I love the ocarina and it is awesome to play. The only thing that bothers me is the subhole you mentioned. I don't think, that it is too heavy. But maybe that's because I also play the orchestral flute since 2006 and it is 100 grams heavier than the ocarina. Thanks for the review and greetings from Germany.

I just want a ceramic ocarina because I like them more than plastic ones and the water ocarina doesn't need the aqute bend. And I just want to look cool when I'm playing to others and my grandfather.

@lycancario3 жыл бұрын
From my perspective, I would say yes but don’t take my word for it as I’ve only played recorder and bassoon. Usually hand placements like the bassoon has, would be uncomfortable at first, it comes down to practice. So I would ASSUME it would be the same for the ocarina when you’re a beginner. If it proceeds past being a beginner then I would look for a different model for the instrument you’re playing. This is also in reference of other ocarina videos I’ve watched. Again, don’t take my word for it, but yeah. I know, year later response, you probably know the answer, but just in case other people have this question I thought I’d answer
@snuggie18493 жыл бұрын
Im super late but if your hands hurt after playing the ocarina then your grip is too hard on it. Play more relaxed and have the padded part of your fingers inside the holes instead of your fingertips. You get better sound and it doesnt hurt. You should practice this over something soft so you dont drop it or you can use a neckstrap like i do! Hope this helped!
