Naf, Bob, that's cute as it sort of sounds like my latest is really. You see the SH is way up to the left and all holes are to the lower end away from the SH...
Dennis, The tuning for the finger holes on an ocarina is similar to a NAF EXCEPT that location is not as important as on the NAF. The holes in ocarinas tend to...
