Is the ocarina easy to play? Why does my ocarina sound out of tune? Why does my ocarina have airy high notes? If you've asked yourself these questions about playing the transverse ocarina, or want to learn more about the instrument then look no further than Serious Ocarina Player. The ocarina is a wind instrument most notable for its pure ethereal tone. Quality transverse ocarinas are capable of creating everything from mournful slow melodies to highly ornamented tunes. They have a straightforward fingering system similar to a flute or tin whistle, and are fully chromatic. Most ocarinas are small, easily slipped into pocket or bag, and played whenever it takes your fancy. Yet, despite their apparent simplicity, playing the ocarina well can be difficult. Often, the intuitive approaches lead to bad technique, and there are many hidden challenges. Serious Ocarina Player introduces a solid foundation that will help you avoid common pitfalls, preparing you to play better and faster. Covered topics include: * The history and capabilities of the transverse ocarina. * Identifying ocarinas designed as serious instruments. * Single chamber vs multichamber ocarinas. * Understanding ocarinas in different keys and octaves. * The fingering systems of single chamber and multichamber ocarinas. * Holding ocarinas and playing the high notes * Blowing an ocarina to create a clean, controlled tone. * Playing in tune, and the impact of ambient temperature. * Making the most of your practice time. * Identifying playable music, and adapting music to the ocarina. * Performing and using Classical and Celtic articulation/ornamentation. * Recording an ocarina in a studio setting. About the author: Robert Hickman has been making and playing ocarinas since 2012. He has often played in folk sessions, and studied other instruments.

Critical analysis of the music of the iconic 1998 Nintendo 64 video game. More than twenty years after its creation, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is still held in high critical regard as one of the finest examples of the video game medium. The same is true of the game's music, whose superlative reception continues to be evident, whether in the context of the game or in orchestral concerts and recordings of the game's music. Given music's well-established significance for the video game form, it is no coincidence that music is placed at the forefront of this most lauded and loved of games. In Ocarina of Time, music connects and unifies all aspects of the game, from the narrative conceit to the interactive mechanics, from the characters to the virtual worlds, and even into the activity of legions of fans and gamers, who play, replay, and reconfigure the music in an enduring cultural site that has Ocarina of Time at its center. As video game music studies begins to mature into a coherent field, it is now possible to take the theoretical apparatus and critical approaches that have been developed in antecedent scholarship and put these into practice in the context of an extended concrete game example. The most extensive investigation into the music of a single game yet undertaken, this book serves three important primary purposes: first, it provides a historical-critical account of the music of an important video game text; second, it uses this investigation to explore wider issues in music and media studies (including interactivity, fan cultures, and music and technology); and third, it serves as a model for future in-depth studies of video game music.
