Abstract: A kit or puzzle for making an ocarina is provided having six planar pieces representing the top, bottom, front and two sides of a cuboid-shaped chamber, wherein the side pieces have arms that extend past the front of the chamber to support a planar mouthpiece having a windway directed at a labium positioned in the forward edge of the top piece forming the chamber. Finger holes in the top piece allow different notes to be played in the assembled ocarina.

Abstract: An ocarina includes a generally oval body enclosing a hollow chamber, a mouthpiece, a passageway connecting the mouthpiece and the chamber, a vent slot against which the air within the chamber may vibrate, and a plurality of pitch control holes. By covering or uncovering the pitch control holes with his or her fingers, the user of the ocarina can produce the notes of the pentatonic scale. Alternate embodiments of the ocarina can be produced for playing tones within the soprano, alto, tenor or bass tonal range. The device can also be configured to have three pitch control holes per enclosed chamber, or to include two enclosed hollow chambers of air, but in any configuration, the instrument can only produce the notes of the pentatonic scale.
