SEMITONE LIP-HOLE: for chromatic playing on the first tetrachord and makes the Firebird 7-hole tuning probably the ultimate development- for small and pendant ocarinas from Jonn Taylor's original four hole major scale tuning,('English tuning') a four tone-hole permutational system.

These superbly hand-made [NO MOLDS]average an hour each to produce to the highest standard the actual making time (discounting drying and firing times)is twenty-five to thirty minutes each for a master of over thirty years experience,the SMALL sound file loading demonstrates accuracy, timbre and range.

Being made from Red earthenware fine clay they are burnished ,key-stamped and imprinted with our mark then economically reduction-fired to a thousand and ten degrees centigrade,then allowed to cool slowly.

These are likely the smallest ocarinas in regular production by any makers-as small as A6 (about 6 grams) are also avialable-or even smaller F6 (earring size,one octave) to special order.

The first sound file is of the basic ninth range [Do-Do-Re].
