Types of Ocarinas (Pendant, Transverse, Inline, Multi-Chamber)

[@dannypineappleade5338]

I’m surprised by the lack of Zelda fans in these comments

[@PowPowSmash]

My favorite ocarina is now the Inline because it looks like an iron

[@Epic11705]

Although this type is more advanced than an inline, my favorite ocarina I want to learn to play someday is the Transverse Ocarina

[@thornwych]

I make wooden inlines .. Thornwychcrafts.bigcartel.com

[@cheyenneweston478]

that paper mario background music wasnt expected !! love it

[@LlFE]

Glazing someone for inventing something that was already invented is crazy work. Great vid tho

[@Hi9-Knight]

I have Pendant Ceramic Ocarina which I got from Scarborough Fair and its 6 holes and I think the music books cost $5 and I got 2 of them one is Video Games Song book the other is Zelda Song Book which I think cost me $40 but I could be wrong since its been few years since I gotten it and it was handcrafted. :)

I miss mountain ocarinas, they were a big source of my continued enthusiasm for ocarinas throughout middle school. I convinced my mom to buy me both a C and a G ocarina, both eventually breaking because the face place delaminated from the rest of the body, but I still missed them. Last time I visited the website the creator said he was working on a new project, but I hope they come back to inlines soemday

[@khirnera]

Also, I'm one if the weird cases where I don't actually care about TLoZ very much at all, I'm just a musician and I love rare, unique, and underappreciated instruments lol

[@millervids6599]

Your enthusiasm is great man good deal

[@anticheat3038]

just bought my first ocarina an stl 12 hole plastic. i'm so stoked i cant wait!

[@seanalexander1234]

My man!!! I so appreciate what you do. I just acquired an Ocarina of Time replica (it might actually be the real thing) from STL and a black NIGHT ocarina on your recommendation. Im so fascinated by it and I’ve learned so much from your channel!!! Thanks so much for what you do, looooove your enthusiasm, you’re great my dude

[@funkinfungoid]

Giuseppe inventing the ocarina at 17 makes me think of the fact that Masahiro Sakurai created Kirby when he was 19

Appreciate the informative rundown and humor sprinkled in! You’ve got a fan

I have a sweetpotato 7 hole ocarina that I got from a music store for $7 and I can’t find any tutorials for it

[@emilyandress13]

you're laugh is so cute i love it

[@bretthake7713]

I didn't know there were so many types. I don't think I've ever seen a mountain ocarina before. What's the reason that they aren't being made anymore? I'd love to get my hands on one of those. Thanks for the great vid as always

[@AndyCormierYT]

I think someone else commented, but the maker for mountain ocarinas switched to a 2-chamber inline model called the “Coda EDC Flute,” which I don’t own but am likely going to buy and review soon 👀

[@bretthake7713]

@@AndyCormierYT this would be awesome!

[@astridposey]

@@AndyCormierYT another question, but why, if they're easier on your wrists, didn't they become standardized and more common for professional performance?

[@LalaRojas-jd5rc]

@@AndyCormierYT Will you make one soon? Also Night By Noble made a soprano Ocarina now. Don't know if those interest you but it would be good to see a review of it eventually.

[@jonthebru]

@@AndyCormierYTI bought a Coda EDC and really like it. It is the inline Ocarina you asked for in this video. The creator doesn't call it an ocarina, it is labelled as a flute.

[@Svender06]

Gotta love the bgm

[@A11V1R15]

So I have some ocarinas that look like pendant but I think they play linearly much like the inline, they have 6 hole in the front, two in the back, are made from clay and I bought them in a street market in Manaus, Amazonas

[@RoxanaTorres-pc9tz]

It's amazing that one person can play so many ocarinas. It's Mozart of the ocarinas

[@NGamesify]

Just subscribed, loving your videos man! I've bought an ocarina some days ago, only waiting for the shipping (got one Ocarina of Time replica hahahah) and I'm excited to play it soon as it arrives

[@susanbradigan4692]

This is amazing.thanks so much!!!

[@ankorae]

Mindblown, inventor of Ocarina is from a town 2hr from me, I had no clue. I might just visit the museum of Ocarina in Budrio at this point.

Thank you❤

[@aur2463]

Muy buen vídeo, un resumen de los diferentes tipos de ocarina muy ben hecho!

[@AndyCormierYT]

Muchísimas gracias! Yo estaba confundido 12 años antes cuándo yo empecé a practicar la ocarina, y por eso quiero que mis videos ayuden a todos in la misma situación~

[@lunaspawws2946]

I got an ocarina from my grandfather, but I can't find a similar one anywhere. It's shaped like an infinity sign and quite big

[@StupidCupid627]

hopefully soon i will be looking at getting an ocarina. i have never touched an ocarina in my life and have never seen one in person (that i can recall), and the only instrument i've played is the violin. do you have any tips for a newbie? like in what kind i should get, and maybe where to buy it from, and anything else? (i think i'm leaning more towards the common Transverse, but that's simply for the aesthetic XD)

[@AwoopEhe]

I did buy an Ocarina from an scottland festival (in germany), and they has somewhat looking pendals one, but they are stretched. I lost it after I renewed my room, so I dont remember how many holes it has.. 7?6? Idk

[@ajhathaway9058]

you can find lots of pendient ocarina in the rockingham mall

[@soda_the_clown]

I might be super late but i really need answers. Can you do a detailed explanation about ocarina holes (the five holes especially) because i own a 5 hole ocarina but whenever i search for sheet music to practise, i see 4 holes instead of 5. I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING HELP

[@AndyCormierYT]

All pendant ocarinas, whether 4, 5, or 6 holes, use the same notation for the 4 holes on top. If you have a 5th hole, it generally means one of two things: if it's on the bottom for your thumb, you can lift it to go higher. If it's on the top, it means you can cover it to go lower than your main scale. Focus on the primary 4 holes for playing your scales, then apply that idea for the extra 5th hole!

[@edi9892]

As someone with little understanding of music theory, what are subholes and split holes? Yes, I know what they look like, but why are they special?

[@tg9521]

Do you think it would be possible to make an ocarina with, say, 8 or 12 holes _and_ multiple fingerings like in case of the pendant one to achieve an even _higher_ range?

[@BigRigCreates]

I thought this was Italian hand style 🤌🤌

[@little_shadow04]

I bought an Ocarina recently and it has 9 holes!

2:10 Where can I buy this ocarina?

[@reillywalker195]

You can buy it directly from Stein Ocarina or from Songbird Ocarina. Songbird both makes original ocarinas and resells Stein ocarinas, although some ocarinas from Stein in certain finishes are only available through Songbird in the West.

[@sonicmantee277plays]

I think I have a pendent ocarina I got 3 days ago

[@thecosplaycrafter8017]

I have a four-hole soprano pendant ocarina that I bought in Teotihuacán, but I can't seem to get a proper scale out of it even though it supposedly uses similar fingerings to my seven-hole alto ocarina (Songbird OoT replica). What might I be doing wrong?

[@originalstarwalker21]

You see, a 4-hole cannot reach a full scale, since the amount of holes limits it. And the Songbird 7-Hole OoT Replica can actually reach a full scale of a 12-hole, unlike a 4-hole or a 6-hole.

[@originalstarwalker21]

In conclusion, you aren't doing anything wrong.

[@thecosplaycrafter8017]

@@originalstarwalker21 Interesting. So why does the seventh hole allow for so much more range?

Both pronunciations are correct! (Oak)arina is actually the original Italian pronunciation, but in English it can be pronounce ock-arina or oak-arina

[@hellenakatrin3374]

Hi there..I am new and I want to buy a ocarina..what type of ocarina is good for beginners and with how many holes,? And from what material should I buy? Thx for help..

[@reillywalker195]

What ocarina is best for you as a beginner depends on a few factors: your hand size including finger width, your pitch preference, your price range, and your reason for taking up the instrument. If you have small hands, bass and larger alto or tenor ocarinas are probably out of the question for you, in which case you should look at soprano or higher-pitched alto ocarinas. If your hands are large like mine, on the other hand, avoid anything higher than a soprano G unless it's a pendant; I can fit soprano C pendants just fine but struggle with soprano C transverses. Most ocarina learning materials will assume you have an alto C ocarina, so you might get an alto C for that reason alone. Alto Cs are middling in pitch and fairly comfortable for all hand sizes, so they're not offensive to one's ears and usually don't require any stretching or crowding of one's fingers. Soprano Gs are smaller and higher in pitch than alto Cs but still usually large enough and not shrill enough to cause discomfort. If you think you'll be interested in particularly advanced repertoire or want to try a multichamber ocarina, you'll want to learn the transverse. If you can't or don't want to pay for a ceramic transverse right away, good transverses to start with include the Bravura and Osawa by Stein and the Night by Noble. If you can afford a ceramic transverse, look for one from any reputable maker such as Stein, Songbird, Pure, Menaglio, or Clacol. STL, Thomann, and Songbird are also reputable resellers worth considering. If everyday carry is important to you, you have limited use of your fingers, or you primarily want to play folk tunes that fit within narrow tonal ranges, pendants are tough to beat. The pendant tuning system has some inherent imperfections, but its accuracy is good enough even for professional musicians. For plastic pendants, your choices are Stein, Susato, STL, and Ocarina Workshop; the list for ceramic pendants is much the same but includes Songbird, Thomann, and Oberon and excludes Susato.

[@jcsouthin1197]

Do you know that 8 hole pendant ocarina? Is it cromatic?

[@kyleduplessis4601]

I am ashamed of how many times I giggled when he said "fingering" and "hole" :-*

[@IloveHamberger]

Where can i buy an inline, and what is the typical price range?, curently using a night by noble and wanting to find another that i can take with me out of the house

[@reillywalker195]

Mountain Ocarinas have recently returned to production. They cost $39.95 USD on Amazon. Stein, the Western brand of Taiwanese maker Focalink, sells ceramic inlines. Their least expensive inline is $166 USD.
