You play very well! I will subscribe, it doesn't matter that you have only 2 videos, I am a supporter :)

[csocarina]

Thanks so much! It gives me courage to keep trying. Hope you watch some of the ocawareness videos people have been posting for October (and of course mine too).

[GifmeSpace]

Very nice. You play very well! I have only picked up ocarina recently and hope that one day I can be as good as you :)

[Tentenguy]

I'm getting your alto tommorow! I'm so exited!

[CaptainNebulous]

truly inspiring. Thank You for posting this and sharing your considerable talent!

[awells88]

I need one of these! Excellent job!

[csocarina]

Can't wait to hear you play one for more than 20 seconds! Fun seeing you at the Slam. Let me know when you are ready to get one!

[Clayzflute]

Yay! Bravo! That is BEAUTIFUL! Wooo Hooo!!!

[csocarina]

Thanks for the cheer!  You guys are fantastic in every way!

[hmy5893]

Very nice!

You should share more !

[csocarina]

I have been inspired since participating in the Ocarina Slam last week and plan on posting another video soon! Thanks for the encouragement.

[GooKing1]

Sweeeeeet!!!!!!

[ridia84]

Wao! I never saw so many ocarinas together O_O

[Barooka89]

You are the best :)

I love your rockin' tunes!

[csocarina]

Ha Ha! Any requests?

[pimporosz]

I like your verson the best, to bad you didn't win. =(

[csocarina]

Thanks for your kindness!

[Psoewish]

Very well done, not sure why you won an honorable mention in the entertaining category though. I personally believe this was more worth a best performance spot :)

Either way, it is an honorable mention so congratulations! :)

[csocarina]

Thanks! I guess maybe the double or the collection adds a bit of entertainment. I had a hectic weekend coming up so needed to get this done, with a couple more takes I think I could have gotten a better performance. I can see how they put it in the other category since I messed up the second line pretty bad! Hope you visit again when I get another video up!

[Psoewish]

Well I just subscribed to you so you better make more videos now! :-)

[csocarina]

I participated in the Ocarina Slam last weekend and am all fired up! I will definitely be posting more soon! Thanks for encouraging me to keep on with it.

[Psoewish]

Aha that's awesome. I should start making more videos too but I'm master at procrastination! :D

[docjazz4]

That was beautiful and congrats on your first youtube video!

[docjazz4]

Oh, and thanks for showing us your awesome ocarina collection!

[csocarina]

Thanks for the congrats! I am so glad that I finally have a video posted. Thanks for the motivation!

About the ocarina collection...I have had people ask me to play some of them, so maybe that'll be my next video. I am lacking in several of the most prominent US makers though, so need to add a few more to my collection to make it more complete!

[shoezimm]

Lovely and lively at the same time....I loved how the double essentially allowed you to accompanying yourself.

[csocarina]

Thanks! That is the idea behind the double. Hope you try it sometime!

[ebeyslanding]

Hi Cynthia! Way to go! That is so sweet! Yippeee!

This is from Nancy!

[csocarina]

Thanks Nancy! That means a lot coming from you! Saw your cd is getting great reviews. Keep it up. I promise the next video I won't be so scared and I'll do better!

[Getaro]

First one I saw with a double ocarina, very nice!!

[csocarina]

Thanks! I was hoping to see more doubles in the contest as well. Maybe next time!
