Ocarina

 

bullet pointDid you know? The ocarina is a very old family of instruments, believed to date back some 12,000 years.

The word ocarina is derived from Italian meaning little goose. The ocarina is an ancient oval-shaped flute-like wind instrument with four to twelve finger holes and a mouth tube projecting out from the body. It is often ceramic, but many other materials, such as plastic, wood, glass, and metal, may also be used. Children love playing this very different and unusual instrument and producing simple tunes is really easy. Ocarina is taught at Get Sorted in groups of up to ten people.
