30 Very Simple Songs for 4-Hole Ocarina with Color-Coded Fingering Char

Our sheet music includes fingering positions, letter-coded notation, and song lyrics for a 4-hole ocarina. Although your ocarina has just 4 holes, this small instrument can produce 8 natural notes, the full range from C to C, and 5 flat or sharp notes: a total of 13 notes.

This songbook is suitable for a 6-hole ocarina also, in this case, 2 holes on the back side of the instrument should be always covered with thumbs.

The fingering positions are shown in the book graphically on an image of a standard-shaped ocarina with four holes. Each hole on the ocarina is represented by circles. The circles filled in black indicate which holes should be covered while playing. The open circles mean they should be uncovered. The bottom circles correspond to the holes on the ocarina which are closest to your mouth. Circles on the left are played using the left hand and are played with the index and middle fingers, while those on the right side are played with the same fingers on the right hand.

Ocarinas always have 1 hole which is never covered. This is the place where sound is released from the ocarina, which is called the whistle.

The 4-hole ocarina is a simple beginner instrument. It is cheap and portable, has a simple structure and form, and is easy to begin to play.

Ocarinas are made from a variety of materials. The most popular models are made of plastic, porcelain, ceramic, or wood.

Our sheet music is based on a 4-hole ocarina tuned in C Major.
