How To Play: The Longing (Hurdy Gurdy Tutorial)

This instrument is called "hurdy gurdy" and has its roots in the medieval times. It works like a mechanical violin with a wheel bow, that can play bass, melody and rhythm all at once.

Clicked on this because I was super curious what a Hurdy Gurdy was/worked. Did not disappoint.

I couldn't find any music sheet, tutorial nor tab for this song, until now; this is very helpful even if I don't own a hurdy gurdy
Thank you so much!

You're a great hurdy-gurdy player..also a great teacher.. you make it look so easy that makes me wanna have my own hurdy-gurdy. But then I remember how much I suck at music and simply enjoy listening to you playing. Thanks Patty for being as you are and share yourself with us. A squeezing (but respectful) hug and wish you end soon your album.

I really love everything about the gurdy and the longing tipped me over the edge. I am gonna get my own gurdy! This is gonna be the first song I learn and I'm super stoked! Thank you for providing the incredible tutorial!

I'd love to hear you cover "Herr Mannilig"! It would be a tune of epic proportions!

I learned it by ear some weeks ago and I worked very well, thanks for the tuto !

Finished my nerdy gurdy today and learned this piece as my first one, it's a great one for beginners, as you learn an important scale and the climbing movements in one piece (but took me 2 hours for an 18-second piece, though 😅)

You, Ms. Gurdy, are beautiful. I listen and learn, but I'm transfixed by your eyes and expressions.
