A vessel-type flute invented by Italian Giuseppe Donati in the late 19th century. "Oca" means goose, and "ocarina" means small goose. It is also known as potato or sweet potato. It is made of a variety of materials, including earth, clay, metal, plastic, and animal bones. The mouthpiece is located in the central protrusion, and the inside is a vessel-shaped cavity with 8 to 10 finger holes whose diameters vary depending on the pitch. In principle, it produces a diatonic scale of 8 to 10 degrees, but semitones can also be produced by adjusting the finger spacing. Other instruments of this type include the Japanese pigeon flute, the Chinese clay 6-hole xun, and the Hawaiian ipu and hokiokio, which are made of coconut and played with the nose. They are also widely distributed in Europe, West Africa, the South Pacific, and other places. [Yoko Hashimoto] There are various ranges, from soprano to bass, and the larger the instrument , the lower the sound. ocarina Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
