The ocarina (oh-ka-ree-na), made out of clay, belongs to the ancient family of musical instruments called "vessel flutes" for their rounded appearance rather than long tubular shape. Made in a variety of shapes and sizes, these round flutes were used for rituals, courtships, celebrations, and for communication over long distances. Many were designed in a turtle shape, others as individualized totem animals or other designs. To use the instrument in it’s historical perspective, you could come up with your own “call” on your ocarina, teach it to your friends, and use it to let them know you are nearby.
Design and build your own Easy-to-Play 6-note clay flute at home! With this easy craft kit, you'll make a clay flute (also known as an ocarina), at home, using your home oven to bake it. After baking, you'll have an instrument that you can play & play. You'll be able to play many songs (including some of the Zelda Ocarina of Time songs) & play your MyOcarina with other instruments.
Now you can make your own ocarina at home, shaped from clay and designed by you. You bake it in your oven at home, at low temperature. "MyOcarina" is a make-at-home kit that gives you a great sounding instrument. You design it, create it, shape it from clay, air dry it, bake it & play it! Make at home -- bake at home! Bakes in your oven at a low temperature (remove the mouthpiece before baking).
Many songs are playable on your 6-note Ocarina. A 17-song collection is included (sheet music & ocarina fingering charts) to get you started. A Holiday collection, a Folk Music Songbook & more can be ordered separately. With your MyOcarina instrument, you'll be able to play six notes (5 holes = 6 notes) with the first two fingers of each hand & one thumb. The 17 songs included in the MyOcarina Songbook #1 use basic finger positions & charts as well as standard notation to teach the music. The songs range from folk to classical, plus 2 original songs by award-winning composer Tom Reese.

Note for Musicians: the songs are written in the key of G, and would need to be transposed to accompany an ocarina that has a tuning other than G. The MyOcarina kit makes a G ocarina (in the key of G).
The MyOcarina Kit includes everything required to design, build, decorate and play your ocarina (vessel flute). The specially designed clay bakes in a standard oven at no more than 350 degrees (for about 2 hours).
