    Apologies for the clickbait title, but it's true! The ocarina is one of the easiest instruments to learn, and I guarantee you can learn the basics with one hour of well-guided practice. Get used to the fingerings, the breath pressure, and reading tabs, and you'll have a great start - no matter HOW bad you think you are with music.

    True story. I bought the Night by Noble, and within two weeks had the pokemon pallet town theme mastered, in tune. Average practice time was 10 to 20 minutes a day, 30 to 45 on Saturday and Sunday.

      Right? Whenever I've traveled (where music wasn't the main purpose), it was the only ocarina I carried with me. AMAZING sound and super durable. There are a lot of great plastics, but I recommend the Night by Noble simply because if something goes wrong, you can't blame the instrument haha

    I ordered this ocarina but the notes sound off key? Especially the high notes. I’ve been trying to adjust my mouth but it still sounds shit. Any ideas or do you think this model is bad I got the Korean one. It doesn’t sound like yours or is that just my inexperience? I have only been playing it for a couple hours.

    • @AndyCormierYT

      My only issue w/ the Night by Noble is the lower breath pressure. On the highest notes, use less air and they should be clearer!

    • @monkeytennis7477
      @monkeytennis7477 3 роки тому +1

      Korean one should be okay, I'm just starting too. Found out it's not the mouth usually, it's just how much pressure to apply the fingers, to seal off the holes. I hate those darn extra holes, that's a new invention. When I was a kid ocarinas only had 8 or 10 holes.

    Oh no! Did I get a dud, or am I just not built to play an ocarina??? I am getting older, but I recently got a Kalimba and do pretty well with that. Then the woodwind player in me from my childhood became enamored with an alto recorder, so I spent $20 on one in plastic from Yamaha. I'm learning to play that pretty easily despite a great difficulty reaching the pinky holes, so... Is this normal for anyone else to have such trouble trying to even get a good tone on this thing with all fingers down? I am finding it near impossible after trying to noodle around on it for several days now. Any advice would be appreciated ‼️

    • @monkeytennis7477
      @monkeytennis7477 3 роки тому

      Hi...I never had any luck with recorder flutes, they always sounded screechy to me. Ocarinas have more of a hooty type sound. The first thing I ever heard on one, was the solo from Wild Thing, by the Troggs. That's an ocarina he is playing! I think note accuracy will drive us nuts, best to hit it close enough and be on with it.
