Fun fact. It didn't get the love it deserved back then either. It was considered a low class instrument. Despite its complexity.

I know an artist that goes by patty-gurdy I think, she has a few songs and stuff and mainly uses the hurdy-gurdy in them, along with other instruments of course but she plays it

@gormauslander 7 ай бұрын

It was designed to play a very specific kind of music, and mostly by itself. It has such a "loud" voice it's hard to make it work with others. Not very versatile, not much of a team player

@75blackviking 7 ай бұрын

This young woman is clearly very talented and a wonderful musician. This is evidenced by the fact that she can make such beautiful sounds come out of the 3-way love child of a guitar, a manual meat grinder and a typewriter.

Just wait until you hear that the inside of the instrument is basically almost like an accordion- it doesn’t have a pumping action the same way that the accordion does, not like puffing air by extending and collapsing, but, the similar buzzing sound an accordion creates is made by drone strings and a “pumping” action of the “crank” (the wheel inside). It’s also been likened to bagpipes, instead of an accordion, for how it makes the buzzing sound. The “buzzing bridge” inside makes this sound. And it’s a little more like a violin with how the strings are played inside the instrument when the crank is turned, but it is held similar to a guitar.

Not sure about this, but what's funny is that this instrument is way older than any of the things you mentioned

@kathleencove 6 ай бұрын

@@Lights_of_Silver I don’t think anyone is insinuating that the hurdy gurdy actually comes from these other instruments. People are just comparing it to other instruments people are generally more familiar with. 😅

@TheRealSkeletor but the original is pretty close to being a Christmas song. It's a "shchedrivka" which is a Ukrainian New Year's song

I've always thought carol of the bells sound quite ominous, and the hurdy gurdy "cranks" that up to 11

One of my favorite things about the hurdy gurdey is that the clicking of the keys plays a part in the music itself.

One of my Covid projects was to build a hurdy gurdy model out of wood. It doesn’t reeeeeally play, but you can turn the crank, work the keys, and get an awfully scratchy tune from the strings. Anyways, I love this instrument, and it’s always a pleasure to hear someone play one!
