When the Saints Line Ocarina Fingerings

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. When the Saints Line starts on C5. 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 — a chromatic tuner shows the moment a note drifts. Take it at around 88 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 14 notes across 4 bars, from C5 up to G5 in 4/4 time.
