About Me:
 
I was introduced to this amazing instrument the same way many people in my generation were...through the 1998 classic, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time". Since getting my first Ocarina back in 1999, I've continued to improve my skills and I'm happy to share my playing with you today! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the music! - David

~Frequently Asked Questions~

Q: It the ocarina hard to play?
A: It's actually one of the easiest instruments to play.

Q: How many Ocarinas do you have?
A: Around Fifty or so.

Q: How do you learn your music?
A: I usually play by ear, but I use sheet music from time to time. No, I don't use (or make) tabs.

Q: Where did you get your Zelda Ocarina?
A: It's made by a man named Spencer Register, and he sells them one at a time on EBAY. To find out when the next will be available, visit http://spencersocarinas.com

Q: What kind of Ocarina is your Zelda Replica?
A: It's a 12-hole "Alto C" Transverse. You can find a very similar ocarina at http://songbirdocarina.com. Check out the Sweet Potato section.

Q: What software/hardware do you use for videos?
A: I use my Macbook - Internal camera, internal mic, garageband, and imovie 6 (the new imovie is horrible).

Q: Why won't you answer my message/email?
A: Unfortunately, I get several dozen's of messages and emails each week, and I don't have time to answer them all. I'll do my best to get back to you when I can, but I can't say if/when that will happen. I will say that the persistent people usually get answers :)
