How ocarinas work
The English 4-hole ocarina is the simplest of all tuned musical instruments, requiring minimal coordination of just the first two fingers. Cover the four holes as shown in the tablature and the correct notes are guaranteed.

Ocarinas are first access instruments that offer musical progression and can be played well in whole-class ensembles by children aged 6 to 12 years.
The Ocarina Workshop have produced the below arrangements for use with English 4-hole and 6-hole ocarinas.
Each arrangement is self-contained with MP3 backings and copiable music sheets, suitable for other instruments as well as ocarinas. You can find out more on the Ocarina Workshop website.
