Making a blowing-controlled ocarina is going to be almost impossible given the
amount of latency induced by the Java audio api (AudioRecord/AudioTrack
classes), and there's no other choice currently in the public Java or C api's.

There's a rather big ticket about this problem:

An accelerometer + midi/osc based theremin is much more possible I think.
