How do you play an 8 hole ocarina?

Postby briboy106 on Tue Jul 15, 2008 6:38 pm

I just recently got an ocarina with 8 holes and I have scoured the internet looking for how to play it. The only things I could find were for pendant or 10 hole transverse ocarinas :( I dont know what to do or where to learn.

Is it 4 holes for the right hand, 3 for the left and 1 underneath?

I have Picture Tabs and Fingering Chart for that on The Ocarina Network.

Six on top and two on the bottom is a Peruvian style. You would want this thread instead.
