Motus, A Medieval tune with the Hurdy-Gurdy
Surprisingly cool
Now I wanna hear the Inception soundtrack on this thing.
You can clearly hear it’s a modern composition. There’s no information to be found about it being of medieval times.
EDIT: OP said it’s composed in the medieval style so it has not been composed in the medieval age. This is an important difference because the title is implying that this is a piece of the medieval age. Downvotes for the truth?
Wanted to buy one of these. Then I found out what a halfway decent one typically went for. Yikes. The one he’s got there is likely worth around 8k+ usd.
My DnD campaign villain now has a theme song. Thanks OP!.
And then there’s this, for the more “advanced” player.

Wind’s howling
If Hans Zimmer scored an episode of Game of Thrones, this is exactly what I would expect it to sound like.
Chords are separately played, I was really hoping that he was playing it all at the same time.
I don’t think I’ve come to terms with just how much I like hurdy gurdy music. I know I’m going to have to listen to hours of youtube videos now. Is there a hurdy gurdy fan base?
I love the Hurdy-Gurdy! [Rob Scallon recently did a great video where he talks to an expert about the instrument](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYJg9cLk1us) if anyone’s interested.
Also, the band [Eluveitie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DYKsQqQgSk) use the hurdy gurdy heavily in most their songs
The bard I play in one of my D&D games uses a Hurdy Gurdy and for all of my spells I’ve gone and edited little 3 or 4 second clips from various songs to fit the spell and this guys channel has been invaluable. Such an awesome instrument.
Cool instrument. The wheel section that spins needs some sort of design on it to emphasize the motion.
