My Favorite Things (ocarina)

By Rodgers & Hammerstein. Played on Mountain G warmstone inline ocarina. I could be wrong, but I think this is the first jazz ocarina cover of this song. And no doubt the last.

Nice playing! Is an ocarina a fully chromatic instrument? How many octaves does it have? Also, what's the difference between the ocarinas with different number of holes? Do more holes allow you to play more octaves?

[ubizmo]

Thank you! Yes, it's fully chromatic, but a single chamber ocarina only has a range of about an octave and a half (this one from F#5 to C6). There are double and triple chamber ocarinas with greater range.

Great performance! I thought the backtrack was rather loud compared to the ocarina though. I'd like to hear more of the ocarina goodness

[ubizmo]

I find that to be the hardest thing to get right. I don't have proper speakers, and headphones just don't work the same. Sometimes I overshoot in the other direction. As it is, I reduced the backtrack volume by about 30%.

Very nice! I like what you've done to this song!

The last ocarina jazz cover of this song? Maybe someone needs to prove you wrong!

[ubizmo]

I hope so.  I'd love to see some more ocarina jazz on here!
