The tiny, high-pitched soprano ocarina isn’t as widely employed as the alto and tenor types, but it’s still well worth having if you’re an ocarina enthusiast, as it is clear, bright tone makes it good for both solo and ensemble playing. Single soprano ocarinas offer a range from 1 to closely 1.5 octaves, which enables them to play most folk and frequent melodies. If you want one with a more spectacular range, you could get a double instrument, as these may commonly play two octaves, or in a lot of cases, harmonies. Transverse (Sweet Potato) Transverse (or ‘sweet potato’) ocarinas are the most intimate type to a great deal of people. They’re held pointed to the side, like a flute, and they have rows of finger holes for each hand, with the precise number of holes varying with dissimilar instruments (10 and 12 hole versions are common). These are at times called Zelda ocarinas, as they’re the same shape as those in the usual Nintendo game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. You may also get English pendant instruments, which in general have a more rounded shape. These are played in a vertical position, like a clarinet – though not similar to with a clarinet, the hands are kept opposite each other. Soprano pendant ocarinas have less holes (usually four finger holes and often one or two thumb holes), which means that a more complex fingering system is applied than with 12 hole ocarinas. They’re ofttimes pitched in the key of G. Inline types are kept in the same vertical position as pendant ocarinas, but rather of using cross-fingering, they have a linear fingering system, similar to that of a heap of transverse ocarinas. This makes them both comfortable to hold for long periods and comparatively easy to play. Making a Purchase You may buy soprano ocarinas online, as well as in a few music stores, markets etc. However, as with a heap of things, you’ll find the best range and prices on the internet. Just be sure you buy one that’s designed as a proper musical instrument, and not a toy, as the novelty types aren’t commonly tuned properly. |
