Songbird Harmony Triple Ocarina - Ceramic - C Major + Songbook
While most triple ocarinas are designed exclusively for maxiumum
range, Songbird has developed a triple ocarina that
is designed with playability, intuitiveness, and the
ability to harmonize.
The Songbird Triple distinguishes itself from the average
triple ocarina due to its unique tuning system, inspired by
the works of Italian ocarinist,Giorgio Pacchioni. While
the first chamber can play just over an
octave (A4-Eb6), the two upper chambers
are tuned in fifths (C6-G6 on second
chamber and G6-E7 on third chamber), which makes playing
intuitive.
This tuning also allows for overlapping notes such as with guitars and other stringed instruments, which makes it possible to play a wide variety of harmonies in sync and with ease.
And finally, the tone is well-rounded and perfectly balanced between all three chambers, making it easy to switch chambers without drastic changes in your breath.
Whether you are looking to experience your very first multi-chamber
ocarina or ready take your ocarina playing to the next
level, the Songbird Triple Ocarina is the perfect
blend of balance, harmony, and a tuning system that just makes
sense.
