THAT SOUND SCOTTISH

I so want to learn to play one of those! Awesome!

Love this tune. I love the Nerdy Gurdy's and have one myself. My only regret is that they are so hard to purchase pre-assembled (I'm NOT putting one together!).

One time I was walking my dog and this deer just stepped out of the bushes in front of us. I took a stronger grip on his lead and braced myself for the chase, but they just looked at one another for a moment and carried on with what they were doing. I'm no expert, but it seemed like they both understood that today wasn't hunt day, and that truce was sacred and couldn't be broken. Tomorrow might be different though. Anyway, nice tune. I enjoyed that.

It is like a bonsai hurdy gurdy but still sounds full hurdy!

I like it!

Matilda! So Cool!

Your bad ass, i love this song!

Freaking love it

You're so awesome, I need to buy a gurdy

this is lovely! i really like the switches between major & minor modalities (not sure if that's the right term).

I guess 8bsteings not 6 sorry how do youbplay the other 8 strings on the body of the gurdy?

How are the other 6 strings on the body of the gurdy played?

A cheat sheet for any Nerdy Gurdy Linotte owners (Tuning is Scientific : Helmholtz, Frequency is rounded) Nerdy Gurdy Linotte (farthest to nearest) String Tuning Frequency DRONE Low G2 : G 98 Hz High C3 : c 131 Hz MELODY High G4 : g′ 392 Hz Low G3 : g 196 Hz TRUMPET Low G3 : g 196 Hz High C4 : c′ 262 Hz

I like that! I like the slow almost chromatic (?) runs! But now you’ve put the cat amongst the pigeons too! Its almost time for Marco to start the build on my gurdy and I ordered an Alto but hearing the tenor has made me wonder if that’s more what I want! Can you comment on Alto vs Tenor at all?

subscribe for ed!!!

Soulful.

The real question is where does the plumbus fit into all of this.

Amazing job you two!! Love it! :D

this is only the 4th hurdy gurdy video i’ve seen, but the tone on your instrument is the clearest and smoothest, most pleasing to the ear!

Most excellent. Thank you !

Dunno why, but this put me in mind of The Cure and Mogwai.

For some reason Tangled's tune sounds to me as if it could be a background tune to a nursery rhyme recitation (?!)

So melodic

Nice tune!

This is an awesome video. Now all I need is a hurdy-gurdy.

Hmm... I watched part 4 first, then came to this one because most of the way through that I was wondering what notes you have on the keyboard. Where is that covered? Although I watched you play a scale, I couldn't see which keys you were playing. Is it fully chromatic? Are the black parts also keys?

Mouche in french means fly 🪰 A fly string ? And the string mount/rest is a chien .....dog in french

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing. Well played

Thank you for the very interesting video, once again. I hope you will go on sharing tutorials on how to play this wonderful (yet demanding) instrument!

Great! I enjoy your videos. I specially love to see the way your fingers move on the keyboard when you play a tune. Thanks for the scales book, I hope it will help me to develop the skills to get some tune on my gurdy someday!

Thanks.

Muito bom!

You are amazing! Thank you for your practical, no-nonsense tips.

Loved this! so excited to go through all of these.

Wow you explain it so good, so boldly, so clever, i don't understand nothing,..like we all know that much stuff like you do,..or we supose to read your mind,...ok...thats a trumpet,..and what is a trumpet,.?..i know that a trumpet is a blowing instrument,..not that little thing that you show,...

Wow perfect! So crisp. Those stops/ pauses were amazing- imagine the e medieval dancers waiting to jump into the rhythm again

Beautiful instrument and playing!

Bad goat!

Nicely said. Can we be friends?

Good 👍

This video has the exact information I needed. This style of tutoring is what I need to get progressing with the gurdy. Thank you so much! I admit I snapped a melody string last year... got new ones

Thank you. Now if would please tell us how a plumbus is made.

What is the name of the french instrument that works like a hurdy gurdy, but is a long rectangle?

Is this a 13 string??

c'est superbe

You invented a hurdy gurdy with no frills

Hola! Me encantan vuestras zanfonas, suenan de maravilla 😊 Os quería preguntar quien os las hizo y que modelo son, hace tiempo que me gustaría comprarme una. Me encantan vuestros vidios!

I understand. I will (learning sufficient proficiency obviously 😂) be using it both traditionally but also potentially in a similar way to Stephan from the band Faun. Initially I thought it would be fine with everything micced up but then I thought it might be a good idea to separate the drones from the melody strings. Then splitting down even further makes sense because the expense of doing so is not that much more. May I ask please… and thank you for being kind enough to reply to my questions, it is greatly appreciated 🙏 So… does the gurdy you have with the preamp fitted have knobs or sliders, switches etc set into the woodwork or is it simply an internal amp outputting to a multiway socket requiring volume, tone etc to be adjusted externally? I’ve seen some gurdys with little sliders set into the side of the body at the back.
