    I love the hurdy gurdy, I love it because it doesnt take a masterpiece to make it sound beautiful. You could just drone on and on doing whatever and itll provide good tunes. Maybe someday I'll put in the dedication and funds to learn the hurdy gurdy myself. :)

      Hiya, I'm literally on day one of actually playing my hurdy gurdy and you're spot on. Just droning on and on with the occasional keypress is quite fun. If you're a bit patient and handy with woodworking tools, I can recommend the Nerdy Gurdy Linotte. It goes for 350€ or so and it's not just a toy-version but actually quite playable. Personally, I had a few slight inaccuracies when building but it's only slightly noticable. But honestly, it's more than just "good enough" to find out if you like the instrument and want to invest in a more professional one further down the line.

    Ay, even though I won't have my own instrument before february at the earliest, this was really helpful. I hadn't thought about the specific way to hold the crank, but as a trombonist I know the importance of getting the correct hold down right away. It was also very nice to get to know how the basic trompette technique works right away. I'm just sitting here in my bed at 01:40, playing the air-hurdy gurdy :P

  •  Před 5 lety +6

    I remember the coup de 3 was not the most difficult to learn. I started learning the regular coup de 3 after irregular ones, and with a good sense of rythm, it was quite easy. Still struggling to get a perfect coup de 4 though...

    • @Sergio.GonzalezPrats
      @Sergio.GonzalezPrats  Před 5 lety +1

      Yes! Most people skip coup de 3 and it's very important, and don't worry I have excercises that will make you tame the Coup de 4! The challenge on this "more advanced" excercise is to really feel the accent changing on coup de 3. I checked and it's not super clear on the video. But the thing is you have to make quieter copus and really HIT on the accent (and it moves on every bar :P )

    Hey, I was checking out your little chat with “M & L” (M&M?) who have”Anestore,” and, wow! Their gurdy’s prices have skyrocketed!
    Can you make a short video with maybe an attachment that says:
    Luthier-their contact info- price range-pros/cons-approx. waiting list time and end with your top low, middle, and high price gurdies?
    I’m struggling to even find maker’s websites, let alone getting a response from any of them.
    Lastly... do you know of an American company called Music Makers? Although they specialize in harps, they make and offer kits to build of several folk instruments, including a hurdy gurdy. Would you recommend that one? Their website is: Harpkits.com.
    You have already taught me so much and I have not even played a gurdy yet! Thank you soooo much!!
