Actually, Pikapika, Gnomon has a point. The notes are different for Ocarinas depending on how they are tuned. For example, my ocarina is tuned to the key of A, so the notes that you put on the fingering chart are useless to me, since my do is an "a", and you have the do labelled as a "c". The fingerings are the same, but the notes the instruments produce are different depending on how the instrument is tuned. Gnomon chose not to put notes on his fingering chart so that it could be used for every peruvian ocarina no matter how it was tuned. The player simply has to figure out which key he/she is in, which is easily done.
