Isn't that amazing how much that sounds like a bag pipe?? Thank you very much for sharing these instruments!
That’s what I thought
The drone strings and the constant sound in particular adds to that bagpipe effect, for sure
As similar as it may sound, bagpipes are completely different! They're closer to an oboe. haha
@@jovetj As a piper ,I must say well done at being very polite.
My thought exactly!
Love all the unique instruments and the history lessons with them, but then to actually hear them played? What a treat!
This is amazing. I used to think this instrument was just a goofy little toy because of its name. Never knew it had such an interesting history. Another awesome video.
Yeah, leave it to the English to give it a goofy name… in France it’s called a vielle a roue, in Germany a dreilier, in Italy a zamfona all which mean “wheel fiddle”
I love the hurdy gurdy. I describe the sounds as a violin and bagpipes having a baby. Would love to see one and attempt to play it some day.
I was born in 1956 so anything that happened before that I’ll have to take your word for it.
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord! ❤
Such a beautiful experience to hear it played on such an interesting instrument!
I really appreciate how you educate in addition to performing on the instruments. I wish more people would do this!
The sound reminds me of a bagpipe! Very interesting story behind this!
A history lesson AND beautiful music! Doesn’t get any better than that!! Thank you! 😊
СПАСИБО ВАМ ЗА КРАСОТУ , ЗА СОПРОВОЖДЕНИИ ВО ВРЕМЕНИ , с Вами перенеслись во времена 14 века, когда подобный инструмент шарманка озвучивал ПРОСТРАНСТВО И РАДОВАЛ ЛЮДЕЙ!!! СПАСИБО ВАМ, ДОРОГАЯ ТРУЖЕНИЦА!!! СПАСИБО ВАМ!!!
Very nice! If I wasn't watching I would think I'm listening to bag pipes
I saw that the hobo on the polar express had one in his hands when we first meet him. It was so cool to recognize it for the first time this year! I want one so bad!
OMG How wonderful is this...... old musical instruments being brought back to life by you ,wonderful lady....... THANK YOU!!!!!!!! 🙏🙏❤❤
The Hurdy Gurdy sounds so much like the Irish/Scottish Bag Pipes.
Music is not only your passion. ‘Tis your soul. Thank you for sharing this with us all. 🌎♥️😊
When I was a little kid growing up in rural Virginia, the British singer Donovan released a song about the hurry gurdy man. Of course, no one knew what it was. Thanks for sharing I our amazing talent.
This is fabulous, and YOU'RE fabulous 🤩 Really enjoyed your videos, will watch more! Love from London 🇬🇧
I dont know which is more amazing, the ibstruments you play as if born to them or the fact that you are able to play all these instruments from long ago! To add to this conundrum, you are a gifted and quite talented singer!
Thank you for bringing this long forgotten music to brighten our Christmas season!
Just a few months ago I mentioned this instrument at work, and I don’t think anyone had ever heard of it.
Now all you need is a Capuchin monkey and a tin cup to catch tips!
The hurdy-gurdy probably originated in the 12th century in a German Benedictine abbey in central Europe. From there, it spreads. From the end of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century, we find numerous sculpted representations which bear witness to this, from Spain to England. Later, it appeared on wooden stalls, then was represented in painting from the 16th century, notably by Hieronymus Bosch.
First a court instrument for which Batton and Vivaldi wrote a few pages, the hurdy-gurdy was dethroned by the pianoforte and its use was then rather reserved for street musicians.
At the end of the 17th century, the appearance of the hurdy-gurdy was still simple and rustic, roughly square in shape (it was then called “chiffonie”). It was only at the end of the century that a luthier from Versailles began to mount hurdy-gurdy mechanisms on guitar or lute bodies. This gives the instruments a softer and at the same time louder tone than that of old hurdy-gurdies. During the 18th century, carefully constructed and richly decorated instruments entered the court. The luthiers Guersan, Lambert, Louvet, Varquain and Salomon were the most efficient around the middle of the century. During this period, many works were composed for this instrument, including the six sonatas Il Pastor Fido by Nicolas Chédeville (which he attributed to Antonio Vivaldi).
The French Revolution will provoke a second profound change in the use of the hurdy-gurdy, which then returns to the domain of regional and popular instruments. The instrument you are presenting is a “chiffonie”. You should also look at the representations of an instrument called an "organistrum" and played by 2 people which had an important role in the evolution of the hurdy gurdy. Congatrulations for the song "O Come All Ye Faithful", I also play it with my "traditional" hurdy-gurdy and with my great Highland bagpipes.
I appreciate your input!
Merci pour cette formidable et instructive réponse ❤
I thought it was Swedish because of Catherine Tate’s insensitive translator sketch 🤓
The origins of the hg are spotty… there are records that describe it as early as the late 900’s and there is no consensus as to what region of Europe it was first introduced (more likely Spain or Central and Southern France)
Thank-you dumontetjack9174,
interesting history 😃👍👍👍👍
Amazing.....Thankyou.....in the 80 there is a song....THE Hurdy Gurdy Man........now in my old-age I understands the song..greetings from South Africa 💖🇿🇦
Not being a musical person I never heard of the hurdy-gurdy before. Very interesting and heartwarming.
How wonderful Dee Dee. Just marvelous.
Thank you 🎶
This woman is a true treasure. I’m a professional accompanist/pianist and recently had the honor to play the tubular chimes in our schools band concert. The piece was Santa the Barbarian Snowcopalypse. What fun! I so love to listen to this beautiful instruments. And what talent!
💕your introduction regarding the historic background of the Hurdy Gurdie instrument & its unusual sound. 💕
Many thanks!
VERY INTERESTING INSTRUMENT! When you first began playing, it reminded me of bagpipes! Thank you for sharing!
Venite adoremus dominus. The sound of this magic box resemble so much the one of traditional pipes! I'm Italian and we have the traditional "zampognari" (pipes players) during Christmas time, they always have an important role in the celebration and are always present into every Nativity Scene. "Adeste Fideles" is one of my favorite Christmas songs and the sound remind me of the narrow streets of San Gregorio Armeno, a beautiful part of Napoli where they make the most traditional Nativity Scenes. Thanks for this gift, you're very talented!
Props to the guy that named it. Truly sounds like he had a blast. And it does sound like electronic bagpipes.
Sounds like a bagpipe . Without turning blue when blowing...just row and let the fingers do the tune...😊
That’s why I LOVE it!
I’ve heard of the hurdy-gurdy, but never saw or heard one. This was so interesting. Very reminiscent of a bagpipe. Thanks for sharing this charming instrument.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The only other time I heard a reference to the Hurdy Gurdy was a Donovan song in the 1960s. Now I not only know what one looks like, I know what one sounds like. Thank you.
I love exotic instruments. I'm learning how to play a Zampona pan flute, have a bunch of Christmas songs worked up and they sound beautiful. Pan flute is one of the oldest instruments on the planet Earth 🌎 If not the oldest
Love that it sounds like a bagpipe ❤
I have always enjoyed music from the pre-renaissance and the renaissance periods. Thank you for sharing your talents and knowledge.
How beautiful! It sounds like bag pipes!😊
You remind me of my elementary school teachers in the early part of the 80s. I remember them as being engaged, and enthusiastic about imparting knowledge to young people.
I love your colorful, beautiful clothes! Your home, too, is looks so pleasing and homey. The hurdy gurdy has a bag pipe sound! Thank you!
Thank you for your comments! We live back in the woods, and really want folks to feel at home! I was drawn to the Gurdy BECAUSE it sounded like a bagpipe!🎶
Used to see these on street corners when I lived in France; they were popular with buskers. I liked them quite a lot, but then as a Scot, I have an instinctive attraction to instruments with drones.
It sounds amazingly like bagpipes, especially with the continuous drone note.
"There's no one alive to tell me any different."
Haha! Right!
i LOVE this instrument ever since i discovered the video game God of War and found Bear McCreary’s composing. he uses the hurdy gurdy in his music with so much genius and i adore its sound!!
Hurdy Gurdy sounds a bit like the bagpipes. Beautiful THANK YOU
First heard a hurdy gurdy from Medieval Babes ....loved the sound! And yes.....reminds me of the bagpipes...which my son's father played...😊
I found hr today and have been watching for the last one and a bit hours, how is she not more of an icon
Fascinating! Thank you.
This lady has all the instruments
Needs to get an in-game achievement for that
amazing! * bagpipes in a box! * thanx deedee! * 🙏 🕯 🌙 🏵 🎶
This is my ultimate favorite instrument. I have loved and wanted one for years. I wish it would become mainstream again. So beautiful
I never knew what a hurty-gurdy was The only time I heard that phrase was the song, The Hurdy Gurdy Man. Too funny. This was really cool.😊
Hahaha, right That’s what MANY people think!
Superb. Great info and great playing.
I've always wondered how these worked! Very cool ☺️
I remember hearing of the Hurdy Gurdy & now I know what it is.
I’m simply amazed of how many instruments you can play. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.😊😊😊😊
I love you DeeDee! ❤
I’m so happy TH-cams algorithms sent you my way. ☀️😇
Thank you sweet lady for allowing us to enjoy insteuments from by gone eras.
Do agree with someone daying it reminded me of bag pipes. The particular reason i listened to this segment was because of the title ,Hurdy Gurdy . The only time i remember that word was back in the 70s by rock musicians using the word/ phrase Hurdy Gurdy back then and had no idea what they were saying ! And now i know!
I think!😅
I only play eight instruments including bad piano from my childhood lessons. I always have been fascinated by hurdy gurdy's having seen same here on TH-cam only. Never in person. Glad you play it. They are amazing. I play the b flat clarinet, e flat alto clarinet, guitar, piano, concert ukulele, e flat saxophone and baritone ukulele plus a venture into soprano recorder a long time ago.
Glad you enjoy all those instruments! However, I’ve found that my saxophone ( my major band instrument) is not very fun to play alone,
I think that’s why I enjoy the instruments that can accompany themselves. Even the Hurdy Gurdy has a drone accompaniment.
Yes, played in the high school Marching and Symphonic Bands - good ensembles but very small for parades and football (only 40 of us in band back when I was a student). Urban Los Angeles.@tibbits
I'm loving the videos your making music plus whatever stories you squeeze in!!
You have such wonderful talent and passion for instruments that we rarely get to hear and see played! A rare skill to be able to play well such a wide variety of instruments! Thank you so very much!
History check: the Renaissance began somewhere around the middle of the 15th century. The 1100s falls in the Middle Ages.
You are absolutely correct! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing all these wonderful instruments with us!❤🪗🎻🎵🎶
Wow, DeeDee, so interesting. I have read about these, and how they were a street instrument, completely portable and the sound carried well outdoors. A good player could earn enough from the shopping crowds to keep food on the table. Sometimes a player would be hired for a wedding, too.Thankyou! 😊❤🫂 Happy Christmas to you and yours... ☃️🎄☃️🎄☃️🎄❤
Oh! I am a big fan of odd/unusual/rare instruments, folk instruments, and instruments that make sounds that many people consider unattractive. Hurdy-gurdies have been my favourite of these since I was a kid! Lovely to hear one being played, I haven't heard one since I was in Dinan, France, in 2011, where there was a street musician playing one. Thank you!
I was blessed to be able to play it in France,too! A local college had me start out their concert coming down the isle playing a French tune!
Wonderful!!
I love to hear about all the interesting musical instruments you play...the history of when, why, where they were made etc. So very neat!! Thank you!
I love that you show us the instrument, and tell those little stories. I just think that you are a wonderful lady. Oh.. and I enjoy the music (obviously).
Thank you so much for refreshing my mind with this long forgotten instrument. Music is everything different and yet, everything is also the same. There are so many ‘voices’ in the world of music and I’m elated that you have this channel that focuses on the not so ordinary.
Isn't TH-cam great? Thanks for putting these up! Your playing is very good! I've never seen the inside of a Hurdy Gurdy. I'll look for your CD! Merry Christmas, DeeDee!
You are wonderfully talented Thank you for sharing with us.
Love the Hurdy Gurdy ❤
What a fun name to say! Thank you for introducing me to the hurdy gurdy 🧡🧡🧡
Now I know what hurdy-gurdy and it just wasn’t rhyming words in a song from the 70s thank you for sharing these ancient instruments
I do love the sound of an HG
Thank you for showing us what the inside looks like. I like a lot of songs with that particular instrument.
We are from Michigan and my daughter has a Hurdy Gurdy made by the same maker as yours. She has it with her and is currently living in Budapest. It was so nice to hear it again. Thank you.
Unless I’m very much mistaken, the Renaissance was a couple of centuries later than the 1100s, 1200s. I’ve been taught that the Renaissance came after the Middle Ages, and the Middle Ages were roughly between 500 AD/CE and 1500 AD/CE.
I just bet your grandchildren love coming to your house!
😮😮😮😮 Are you kidding me? You are a woman of beautiful sound and vibrations ❤
I've heard of the Hurdy Gurdy before this but this is the first time I've seen one.
Awesome instrument! Thanks!
Oh I love that sound!!
I've NEVER seen this instrument before. This is so amazing
Lovely hurdy gurdy from Mel, he made some really good ones. Happy Christmas ! 🎄 🎅
I love hurdy gurdys! I worked at a camp one summer and one of the counselors got one and brought it in to show us/play for us when it came. They're really neat. ☺️
The musical instrument museum in Florence, attached to The Accademia, has a hurdy gurdy with a more violin shaped body. The only downside of the box version is you don't get to see the wheel turning.
I've seen these but never known any history on them. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and a great song.
You’re such an interesting talented person. I enjoy your videos very much
How talented you are! I very much enjoyed that.
Beautiful sound! Remember singer Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy Man? I learned something new today! Aloha from Hawaii and Happy Holidays to you!
i never knew a hurdy-gurdy actually was some sort of violin! thank you
Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece of history.
Merry Christmas 🎄
I've been enjoying your playing, thank you.
Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
Very beautiful sound I love it.
Here comes the hurdy gurdy girl singing songs of love, hurdy gurdy hurdy gurdy hurdy gurdy she played. 😊
Another little correction: The hurdy gurdy was not invented in the Renaissance, but in the high middle ages. Later, it became popular in France, as well as various other European countries; however the first pictures of the instrument are from Spain (Cathedral of Santiagode Compostella, 12th cent.) It was most likely invented in the Orient about 1000 aD. (I became interestred and started making and playing HGs in Germany from 1975 on)
Thanks for showing and demonstrating this hurdy gurdy! 🥰
Thank you Dee Dee I really enjoyed your explanation and listening to you play. X
Beautiful. What a talent & it’s obvious you really love it
What a beautiful instrument and tone thanks so much for sharing
Once I realized that this channel was you playing a whole bunch of different instruments and teaching the history behind them. And stuff like that immediate subscribe
Very nice! The drone string gives it a bagpipe effect.
