Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I play the violin, so choosing a wind instrument for me is new. I have no idea where to start. I want one that will play a wide range of notes so I can play almost any song... I've been looking at the sweet potato ones aswell as the mountain ocarinas. Does any one have any suggestions?? When I was a child, Ocarinas were novelty items and could be picked up for anywhere from five cents to at the most, a couple of dollars. Now it seems they are high art and command respectable prices, not unlike the pennywhistle that should now be called the twenty dollar flute (LOL) There are a few sources below. I have dealt with Lark in the Morning, but do not know much about the others. I can tell you that they are all active links however, as I went to them physically before I posted them below. I hope you find what you are looking for. You can also check out Elderly Music and Musician's Friend. Indeed, you must get the Ocarina of Time. |
