Join Tom Vaughn, Music, Arts and Performance Coordinator, as he discusses an unusual instrument in the Old Sturbridge Village collection, the Hurdy Gurdy. Invented in the Middle Ages, the Hurdy Gurdy experienced a resurgence in popularity in the 1790s in Paris, France. It then made its way to New England, where it was considered a novelty. Enjoy the droning sounds of the Hurdy Gurdy!
