I just found an ocarina at a thrift shop for 10 dollars, and I'm itching to play some fun solos for it. I am not itching to give money to JW Pepper. Is there any way to pirate sheet music? PDFs are ok. TIA!

You can pirate the sheets out of Songsterr. It's probably the most popular site for music sheets. I didn't find a convenient way, but I was able to:

  1. use Ublock Origin to remove all distracting elements.
  2. Optional: log in and change to light theme
  3. screenshot and print.

I didn't find an add on, or a way, that let me save the page as is. they always block it. so only screenshot is what I was able.

out of curiousity, i played with these steps and noticed that you can save the music sheets for offline viewing using the firefox 'singlefile' extention:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/single-file/

still can't print, but at least that's one step closer.

Just tried this option. For some reason when printing it becomes all white.

I'll try to dig into it sometime soon. if I find a way I'll let you know

I've seen music books for recorders on ZLib - maybe there is stuff for ocarina as well.

any non public domain sheets there are paywalled if you wanna download them. Youll need librescore
