Tide of Embers on ocarina
The full melody, rendered as 12-hole ocarina fingering you can read on screen or print for the stand — free, and never truncated.
An original Playsoloist study, composed in-house as a practice piece — not a traditional tune and not implied to be one.
How to practise this on ocarina
Each diagram is your ocarina seen from the front — a filled hole is covered, the two small marks on the left are the subholes, and the dashed pair are the thumb holes on the back. Tide of Embers starts on C6. Because an ocarina's pitch comes from the total open hole area, your breath pressure is your tuning: push harder and the note sharpens, ease off and it flattens.
Climb the fingerings in the order shown instead of hunting for holes, and keep your air steady so the pitch sits still — the app will tell you the moment a note drifts. Take it at around 78 BPM to begin, walking slowly through the phrase, and only lift the tempo once two takes in a row come back clean. By the numbers, this setting runs 13 notes across 4 bars, from G5 up to F6 in 3/4 time.
