1. Grasp ocarina with both hands. Place index and middle fingers over the holes. one finger per hole. Use the thumb to cover the fifth hole. 

2. Now blow into it. That's the lowest note, with all the holes covered. This note tells you what key the ocarina is in. Try lifting different combinations of fingers
and blowing to see how it changes pitch. 

 



 
 

3. Now try the scale, as shown above.  An octave scale is also known as a diatonic scale.
