DESIGN
- Beautiful Ivory Finish
- Its design maintains its playability factor, as well as its sculpturesque qualities

WEIGHT
- At almost 10 oz., it may be difficult to play for kids

PLAYABILITY
- Uses the Budrio fingering style (transverse ocarinas), so it's very easy to play, especially if you already own a 10 or 12 hole ocarina
- Uses the standard breathing technique for ocarinas of blowing softly on the low notes, increasing your breath pressure as you progress up the scale to stay in pitch

SOUND
- Plays rich low notes and maintains it's clarity on the higher notes, giving it a very full sound
- Better sound sample: http://www.songbirdocarina.com/songs/muse1.mp3

I think most makers try to find a balance of having a good look and sound to their ocarinas, and Mr. Songbird captures the best of both worlds with this addition to his collection.

Hey David. First of all, your vids are great and inspiring. Second, I have a muse ocarina but I'm sort of a beginner at the moment and I was wondering if you knew where I could find the fingering chart for it. BTW, mi bolero del fuego... love the cover!
