Topic: Anyone play ocarina?

[nocturnous]

I just bought one at a renaissance festival , it's a knock off copy of the one from Zelda OoT.

Not nearly as good as the ones from here though

and I'm disaponted in my C and D notes weak and out of tune slightly.

My wife plays one sometimes.  Too frequently, really. 

Though I really didn't think I'd ever have an opportunity to talk about that here...

Well I hope for your sake it's quality, because a bad ocarnia is brutal on the ears mainly in the higher range.

The ocarina is now especially used as a word in crossword puzzles.
It's saved the sanity of many cruciverbalists.  Especially in French.

As quality one might expect from a drunken R. Carlos Nakai, were he a fan of the Grateful Dead's longest songs.

This is to say: not quality.
