The hurdy gurdy must have been a masterpiece of medieval engineering. I can imagine them taking the same care of an instrument like this as we would a priceless guitar, or set of drums.
You'd be surprised to hear that after a brief period of popularity with rich folk for being a masterpiece of engineering, I read somewhere that these instruments had a bad reputation because homeless prostitutes would often play them for cash because they were easy to learn.
In the beginning it was. But then it became a very common instrument and even beggars could afford one. That's when it changed from a sophisticated instrument for the nobility and clergy to a common instrument for the lower classes.

Colonel Kurtz. One way to keep "undesireable" people from settling in your neighborhood would be to have several all cranking out different tunes at 3:44 a m. Ha, ha!
This sounds like music being played during the beginning of a movie, telling you about past events leading up to the story in the film. I can imagine a narrator telling the story with this playing.
As the snow falls, cast white flakes against the grey sky, a lone figure trudges on. Through freezing mud and mire, to reach the hearth of his heart's desire. The fell shadows swaying, the wind shifting the pines. The lone wolf and it's crying. Still our hero marches on. Freezing fingers that no gauntlets could keep warm from winter's cold biting maw. He keeps on carrying what little he has to keep him warm: the fire inside & strength of his limbs are all that remain to move the metal, the weight of war, the cold, hard steel of a knight's attire. The ember inside, his heart's desire,...
Aye. We came here as farmers. We leave this land as warriors. This is our home. We will never give it up. To this ground, I lay my feet,, my plow and my sword. And one day, me. I stand until I sleep, forever more. This, is my home.
I lived in a house with a man who played bagpipes and the hurdy gurdy. His wife played and sang everything else, the kids and cats ran around underfoot, and the other tenant was a bagpipe maker. You were really careful where you sat, but otherwise it was a happy time and place. This is much more serious than we ever got, and this ... pipe organ with strings ... is magnificent. Thank you for the video and the memories.
A young man told his mother 'By this blade I'll prove my worth I'll leave my mark upon this world' His blade broke far before his dream Who lies beside him in the snow No one remembered how he screamed For a mother who will never know
@@destructiveforce3599 Neither do you, if you think that's a good thing. Live by the sword, die by the sword. Protect what you have, and if that means that no fights come to glorify you, that is a good thing. No need to actively seek to deny mothers of their children.
I knew of the name of the instrument long before I ever heard it, and assumed it was pretty raucous and lame, judging from the name. Then I heard it played and I was entranced, it is an exquisite instrument deserving of a much more dignified name.
It's called the hurdy gurdy because the wheel will warp over time making a consistent sound impossible. And they usually don't sound this good, they usually squeak and squawk.
this instrument is underrated and sadly a bit too obscure. It's sound evokes such an ethereal context - out of time, out one's cureent reality and being thrust into another otherworldly - but not in a pop scifi sense of otherworldly, but instead a transcendent otherworldly
The entire universe would be diminished if there weren't people like you to share these kinds of experiences with people like us. I am so grateful to you for this. Thank you!
Not to much music gives me chills anymore but this does as soon as i hear the first minute. It just makes me feel like im falling back in time to past lives.
Just today i remembered Donovan’s song ‘The Hurdy Gurdy Man’. If i remember correctly it was written by George Harrison with Jimmy Page on lead guitar and John Bonham on drums. Until this beautiful and moving film I had never seen a hurdy gurdy before. Utterly mesmeric, soulful and unforgettable, thank you. As a 71 year old teacher, I love to learn 🍎💪🧡🌈
Perhaps, it is simply from a time long forgotten-burned from the world and wiped from slates. You, fair wanderer, may have stumbled 'pon the key to something long lost, long forgotten... Seek it out if you wish, though there's no telling how far that winding path reaches... (Written both to match mood, and to genuinely encourage seeking this "memory" out) (Also sorry to bother you so long after. I simply couldn't resist!)
To play such a fine instrument as good as Andrey & many other do must take years of practice & dedication & to remember so many tunes is just amazing. The person who designed this fine sounding instrument must have been a musical & sound genius.
I'm a gurdy player and gurdies are unique in that they're kind of a bastardization of a bunch of different instruments. I'm not sure who Andrey's luthier is but they all produce instruments that have an incredibly unique sound.
So beautiful!💖💖 I have spent 30 years involved in medieval history, and this is my favorite instrument. It takes me away from here, into the fields and woods, to happy memories.
I was trying to find inspiration for a new character I've made and this hits perfectly. It sounds like what plays when someone tells a story at the campfire
Because special thing's are usually underground ,once they become mainstream the magic disappears ;the corporates take over and what do you get ? Answer boyzone doing a syncopated little dance with a hurdy gurdy or even a Crumhorn, God's teeth, but seriously;anyone just coming across this instrument for the first time, check out Gilles Chabenat who not only plays traditional styles, but contemporary as well !
Woaou !!! Quelle magnifique complainte, on est entraîné par la musique qui déroule une histoire note après note !!! Vraiment superbe, bravo l'artiste 👏👏👏
Bonjour, bonsoir, franchement il n'y a pas beaucoup de français qui s'expriment sur cette vidéo. Par ma foi cela me navre que les golons soient à la manœuvre.
Our tales of medieval last, but we do not make it, nor survive. Whatever is left we must prevail but cannot, whoever we are, whatever we are we at least made it this far and must stand. Our days of our survival is a sad gruesome tale of this song. All I can think about and remember from where I come from and how I made it this long. On my last dying breath I wish for us to only make it for once and not live as such no more. Amen to you Andrey Vinogradov for this astounding performance these days, may you live on.
I’ve always loved the sound of this instrument and I first saw it used by “The Decemberists“ for “Sons and Daughters”. I think that instrument is a key element to the beauty of that song. Beautifully played here too.
The hurdy gurdy is such a unique instrument that has a sound all its own. That is why i love the sound of it. Its as its narrating the past and telling a story while telling the harsh truth that life sometimes brings. Sounds beautiful and rough at the same time.
Sehr Gefühlvoll und Mystisch, irgendwie Zeitlos klassisch , angenehm, irgendwie spür ich die wurzel meines Seins traumhaft, Danke für diese Chillige Musik❤
I literally heard this amazing man playing this amazing instrument less than 20 minutes ago, and I already feel my life changed! How wonderful! Others have observed the hurdy gurdy the music of several instruments and music of several cultures. I love it!!
I have never seen a hurdy gurdy player use that back and forth motion on the handle, but it makes perfect sense. It's like he's bowing with the parchment wheel. I would love to know the brand of HG he is using.
As a trumpet and piano player I think they are switching the direction to separate the notes. With a trumpet, you can do it by using your tongue to stop the air, then pulling your tongue back in, with a tap-like motion. On piano since all the keys are already separate you just press them at different times. In musical terms, if you didn’t separate the notes, then you would be slurring them all together.
This could be played in many movies, at many different parts of each of them , but the song is about a dark path of a warrior. His life, entirely encapsuled in a piece of music that has not one mood, but many; change, flow, the way the instrument speaks creates shifts in mood and atmosphere.
Thank you very much. This is just stunning. I feel like I’m hearing through the music the sound of an incredibly colossal, powerful, amazing legend. Love it
I see it clear as day, a heavily cloaked stranger sits atop a tall horse. Its mane, and his cloak billow effortlessly on the wind as he stares silently across the tundra deserted but for a distant, broken tower. I love how music evokes imagery.
"And so the Heralds marched north, against the piercing winds of the tundra, in haste to deliver the message: the king has passed, and the throne calls for its new host. It was in those days that the Lords of Alwen dwelled in the steppes of the eastern lands, and it was also in those days they would ride for the reclamation of their kingdom, and the seat of the high king." Something I just made up in my head to this lol
The Witcher gazes upon the wind-swept wildlands of a forgotten land his swords sheathed weathered and worn an extension of his soul anchored to his back... The wind picks gently and the rain rolls over untouched beauty, he slowly raises his face eyes closed allowing the water to make its way down his scarred face. The pitter patter of drops breaking on a look which tells a thousand stories from a thousand journeys…
I made some lyrics, hope y’all like them! There was a king Come from a distant land He formed the earth Using his mighty hands He was a warrior Feared not beast nor devil He stood above all Who heard the ravens call There was a king Borne from the blood of gods He fought for man And ary noble cause He was a warrior Feared not beast nor devil He stood above all Who heard the ravens call He was a warrior He was a ruler He fought for justice And ary noble cause He bore much power None could devour This shining warrior Who wore the blood of gods He was a warrior Feared not beast nor devil He stood above all Who heard the ravens call He who stood above all Within the ravens call Was destined to fall To neither devil beast nor man He who stood above all Within the ravens call Was destined to fall To the might of godly hands There was a god Who’s anger seethed in flame His fury spawned At mention of the kings name He burned in hatred His honor stained and faded He wanted all Who heard the ravens call He faced the king In battle cruel and cold It mirrored those Wars seen in years of olde They both were warriors Who feared not beast nor devil They stood above all Who heard the ravens call And in this battle The world unraveled Cleaved in twain Marked with godly blood and pain The earth they ravaged In battle savage They could not foresee What chaos came to be These mighty warriors Who feared not beast nor devil Had destroyed all Who heard the ravens call Once the battle was done Neither warrior had won Instead they looked upon The destruction they had wrought They saw that their conflict Was the cause for all this They had ruined all All who heard the ravens call
I can't even... it's just so beautiful. My two favorite instruments are bagpipes and violin. This has the drone of the bagpipes while having that sad, string sound of the violin. I just love it. Thank you so much for your art. It inspires me.
I love the way you turn the handle back and forth in time with the music. I've never seen the hurdy gurdy played like that before, it's so much better than the usual continuous sound it produces. Where did you learn that please?
I have never heard it played that way either; adds a new dimension to the sound which can be a bit "mechanical" when all played in the same direction of rotation. Sounds similar to the Nickelharpa when played this way (unsurprisingly).
It’s a common method for those who affirm homosexual special rights. But even today they don’t realise the local facts and collusion invalidated all who avoid reality of pronouns.
I have a hurdy gurdy and have been playing for about 8 years. I've never seen one played that way, either. Guess who's going to start working with this method? I love how the turning movements create a rhythm overlay to the music. This piece is beautiful...really showcases the musical power of a hurdy gurdy!

im sure if those instruments were played together someone will say "wow it sounds like a hurdy gurdy"

Awesom!
Hurdy gurdy is one of the coolest instruments ever made.
I made some lyrics, hope y’all like them!
There was a king
Come from a distant land
He formed the earth
Using his mighty hands
He was a warrior
Feared not beast nor devil
He stood above all
Who heard the ravens call
There was a king
Borne from the blood of gods
He fought for man
And ary noble cause
He was a warrior
Feared not beast nor devil
He stood above all
Who heard the ravens call
He was a warrior
He was a ruler
He fought for justice
And ary noble cause
He bore much power
None could devour
This shining warrior
Who wore the blood of gods
He was a warrior
Feared not beast nor devil
He stood above all
Who heard the ravens call
He who stood above all
Within the ravens call
Was destined to fall
To neither devil beast nor man
He who stood above all
Within the ravens call
Was destined to fall
To the might of godly hands
There was a god
Who’s anger seethed in flame
His fury spawned
At mention of the kings name
He burned in hatred
His honor stained and faded
He wanted all
Who heard the ravens call
He faced the king
In battle cruel and cold
It mirrored those
Wars seen in years of olde
They both were warriors
Who feared not beast nor devil
They stood above all
Who heard the ravens call
And in this battle
The world unraveled
Cleaved in twain
Marked with godly blood and pain
The earth they ravaged
In battle savage
They could not foresee
What chaos came to be
These mighty warriors
Who feared not beast nor devil
Had destroyed all
Who heard the ravens call
Once the battle was done
Neither warrior had won
Instead they looked upon
The destruction they had wrought
They saw that their conflict
Was the cause for all this
They had ruined all
All who heard the ravens call
OOF this shit is cringe af
That's incredible. It fits very well to.
Nicely done!!

I love the way you turn the handle back and forth in time with the music. I've never seen the hurdy gurdy played like that before, it's so much better than the usual continuous sound it produces. Where did you learn that please?
I have never heard it played that way either; adds a new dimension to the sound which can be a bit "mechanical" when all played in the same direction of rotation. Sounds similar to the Nickelharpa when played this way (unsurprisingly).
It’s a common method for those who affirm homosexual special rights.
But even today they don’t realise the local facts and collusion invalidated all who avoid reality of pronouns.
Aside from that, not all hurdy gurdy's can actually go backwards. This is probably also part of it maybe.
I've seen a fair few players use that technique; I'd imagine it's not particularly uncommon.
I have a hurdy gurdy and have been playing for about 8 years. I've never seen one played that way, either. Guess who's going to start working with this method? I love how the turning movements create a rhythm overlay to the music.
This piece is beautiful...really showcases the musical power of a hurdy gurdy!
