Check this out...
The Chuckerbutty Ocarina quartet.

I have heard them a couple of times on Classic FM and then found their website.

Was Natalie Wheen playing them the other day? I heard something funny while channel hopping, but it had finished when I went back, and I heard her talking about something being 'made of clay'.
(I like Ocean FM as they play a lot of good '80s tunes, though they do play '80s crap like prince, madonna and stockaitkenwaterman)

Yes Chris, if it was on Sunday afternoon, this is exactly what you heard. A few weeks ago, she played their arrangement of Carnival of Venice. I have never laughed so much at (or rather, I should say with) a piece of music. The skill of these players is phenominal.

Thanks for that. I've never heard an ocarina (other than my own hideous tootings).

I just remember that kid in 'The Red Hand Gang' playing that (annoying) march tune every time I see or hear anything to do with ocarinas!
