Fall is the time for Ren-Faires, State Faires and Harvest Festivals. Anyone going to "set up shop"? Play Ocarinas as a "Busker"? Shop for "The Perfect...
Thomas, I think the cat has their tongues lately as I haven't had a rise in

Paolo, Thank you for the link to the event pictures. I had to hunt a bit to get to them but it was well worth the extra second or two to get to see the...
I'm back too from Austria. I agree very much with Paolo Gavelli: the Ocarinafestival 2008 in Bludenz was GREAT! Lot of fun, nice concerts, new ideas to better...
There was a question raised on another ocarina forum about a line of clay English-style pendants with "JC" stamped in a circle in the front center. Who was the...
Yes, Where are all the Ocarinas, where are they today? I've looked up high and I
ve looked down low but not a sound do I hear! I look to that side and look to...
Haven't a clue! I use a maple leaf on mine and Arenda uses a 'shoe' so what
do you use Aaron? OR do you just buy yours? Verne ... From: Aaron Walden Date:...
I've become intrigued by the ocarina. I have a keyboard, a ukulele, and I have played pennywhistle and recorder in the past. So, I think an ocarina with...
They CAN be quite mellow and quiet. The smaller ones are definitely shriller or at least louder (think how loud a little whistle can be!) Also, the shape of...
Say, Teri, can you give the rest of us more details on the Sound Hole bit. Bob and I have been experimenting with same for the optimum and wonder what
you...
Well, the theory was that they were Hind ocarinas, but some didn't believe that he'd worked in clay, and the only evidence was that it was his first two...
I usually make my sound holes about 1/3 as deep as they are wide, or maybe slightly bigger. The sound is sweet and clear. (Thank you to Janie Rezner for...

It is a cute mail for personal sendings but I hope we dont start sending mails like this on this group. I do not forward mails to anyone that does not ask for...
... Interesting. Do you know which of the manufacturers make them with the rectangular sound hole? I notice a lot of you make your own ocarinas, but I don't...
This sounds interesting though I don't think it's the correct way in the
long run. The sound is of your making and the way you construct the rest of
the...
Marcy, Go look at Charlie Hinds location or simply do a search for Ocarina and
you'll find quite a few. Like most here I do make my own and since my baker left...
 I think the maker's name is John Coiner. He works Ren Faires but doesn't sell online (or at least he didn't a couple of years ago when I asked him). I have...
Hi Marcy... I also have a Terry Riley Ocarina. That one sounds really nice as well, and is tuned correctly. I would defenitely say... If you want a good...
I can recommend you an ocarina from Asia (Japan, Corea). They usually have a very sweet and quiet sound. The best sizes for you could be do3 and sol4...
I'm new to ocarina making. I was hoping someone with some experience could help me out. I really wanted to make an ocarina, so I figured that I would start...
