Ocarina

Ocarina has a long history and originated in ancient times. It’s thought to have started in Central America more than 12,000 years ago. The ocarina was used by old Mexicans and Mayans to produce music during various occasions, such as ceremonies and rituals. This was an instrument that was made of clay and holes were covered to produce varying tone.

An Ancient Instrument Reborn

The story of the ocarina was brought back to the world in the 19th century by an Italian musician, Giuseppe Donati. He developed a modern form of the ocarina in ceramic in 1908. This new shape made the instrument easier to play and assisted in the adoption of the instrument around the world. Not the day the ocarina is still made out of espresso cup ceramic, there are also designs to make it out of plastic and metal.
