The Chuckerbutty Ocarina Quartet - the video!



Filmed at the same concert at the Orpheus Centre as the Sambuca video, here's an eight-minute video of the Chuckerbutty Ocarina Quartet in action. It's got samples of some of our favourite pieces -

Pizzicato Polka - without the strings
Fiesta Aymará - accompanied by the charango, a Bolivian mini-guitar
Schubert's Trout - on a quartet of fish, of course
Rossini's Largo al Factotum - not at all slow, in fact
Radectomy - the grand finale, with ocarina, melodica, bass crumhorn, and kettle

I'm getting a higher-resolution copy of the video soon, which I'll post when it arrives. Meanwhile, enjoy!
