Rainbow Box 6-hole Oc

This pack comprises 12 Ocarinas (6-hole) all neatly supplied in a strong and sturdy box making it ideal for classroom storage, with instruments to hand for daily use.

The 6-hole Ocarina is identical in size and pitch to the 4-hole Ocarina – it just has two added thumb-holes which give four accurately-tuned extra notes. For all of the tunes in Play your Ocarina Book 1 'Starting off', keep the thumb-holes closed and play as if you have a 4-hole Oc.

From the end of Book 2 onwards, the more adventurous tunes will encourage using your thumbs. Opening the thumb-holes gives an extra note at the top and three more sharps and flats which are useful to play some of the trickier tunes in Books 3 and 4.

The 6-hole Oc Ocarina is a robust musical instrument, fully chromatic over the range of a ninth, well-tuned and with a pure sweet tone.
