It sounds like a mix of pirate themed violin playing backwards and a bee flying too close to a microphone.

This has got a fucked up wheel spinning in it and you spin it with a crank on the bottom. You're drunk. No such instrument could be built. Yes I am. And I built it yesterday.

"Hold my beer, I have a genius idea. You know how I tried to play the violin? Well, what if I take that broken wheel from the wagon outside, and rub it across some strings. Maybe I'll hit the string with some wooden blocks. Yeah, that's go good. I'll put it in the church so we don't have to hear my shrew of a wife." "Tobias, you're drunk. You can't just put a wheel on some strings. I'll sound terrible, and the church services are far too long already." "I can't? I already did it."

This is how our ancestors rocked out hundreds of years ago.

Wonderful! I love it.

I've never heard/seen hurdy gurdy played before. Amazing!

Howdy from Dallas Texas. For some reason in my mind I always thought a hurdy gurdy was some sort of box that had a c a n e sticking out of the bottom to stabilize and a crank and a little monkey attached on a leash to collect Penney's from children! I never realized it had a fretboard like a guitar. I was able to acquire Donovan l e i t c h e s autograph the author of the 1968 hit the Hurdy Gurdy Man. Howdy from Dallas Texas

Simply amazing. Nyckelharpa, Hurdy gurdy, and Theorbo: virtuoso drone strings.

The Hurdy Gurdy is over a thousand years old. It is called zanfona in Gallician Portuguese. It figured prominently in the middle ages & was a main instrument of the Troubadours. It can be found all over Europe in folk traditions from Poland & Hungary to France & Spain. Check out videos on KZread by German Diaz, Gregory Jolivet & Efren Lopez.

That was so awesome it made my teeth hurt! So cool.

This is really cool.

4:38 is sick!

the composition is called razvrastanata/devoiko mari hubava

Most of it is bulgarian folklore. (odd time signatures, phrasing, harmony, ornamentation) Instrument in this particular piece kinda resembles bulgarian bagpipes. The composition even has the theme from a popular folk song "Devojko mari hubava". Мистерията на българските гласове-Девойко мари хубава
