About the D Major Scale#
D major is a major scale with two sharps, F sharp and C sharp, built on the tonic D. It shares the bright, resolved character of any major scale but sits a step higher than C, which puts a full octave from low D to high D within reach on the 6-hole ocarina. The two sharps are the thing to watch: F sharp early in the climb and C sharp just before the top, both easy to miss if your fingers default to the natural notes. Practising it slowly fixes those positions in memory and stretches you comfortably across the instrument’s range.
