God rest ye merry Gentlemen on Ocarina


This was just plain fun! Besides the fact a lady slipped a 10 dollar bill in my pocket, I had lots of people asking "What is that thing you're playing?"

I'll fill in the rest of this later.

Later! A.M.

Angels we have heard on high on Ocarina.



HAHAHAH!!! I finally figured out the independent  upload problem!!!! *continues evil laughter*

This was probably the fastest made video I've ever done. I was just cruising around for lyrical versions of Christmas tunes and came across one that sounded a bit like country but (thankfully) wasn't.

I Was tickled by a notion that my New Vista pendant would fit this song perfectly...... and it did. :)

I then decided to see if I could run this song through Audacity to make myself a Karaoke version..... and It worked! :) :)


A day or 2 later, I needed to go to town to mail my Art-Fire Shop orders and my mom's Etsy orders as well as some stuff at the bank. Since it was Christmas time, I figured "What the Heck!" and asked the ladies at the bank if they'd like some Carols and they said "Absolutely!"

And since I brought my video camera with me for this very reason..... well..... >:D 
They're very nice, understanding and supportive of Ocarina music.

Merry Christmas All!!!

Later! A.M. 

P.S. Here's my New decorative Button shop on Art fire! GloriaPatreButtons!

Original Song "Horse Ride" on Ocarina


This turned out so CUTE!!!!!! I'm so please with my big old sweetheart Rocky!...... Oh, and the ocarina playing turned out pretty good too. XD


Yes, my Rocky is no stranger to the sounds of the ocarina, to which I'm very grateful. Getting him to take part in Videos is seldom difficult..... especially with a little bribery in the form of a handful of oats. :)

As far as the music is concerned. Yes, This is my own original tune.... at least I hope it is. The way to appreciate this tune most is to imagine going for a horse ride in snow. The tempo gets progressively faster and more beat driven as you go faster with the horse. Once you in a big open field, you just let the horse give'er. The key switch is just for fun and makes for an equally pleasant ending. :)


This was filmed well in advance of all the snow and frigid temperatures we have here now in Saskatchewan. Stay warm guys!

Later! A.M.
