This instrument has fascinated me for years, and I am now learning to play one! At the time of writing, I am also having an intrument built. One of the features of this site is the 'hg diary' where I have posted pictures I have taken over the course of the construction of this instrument. I hope you find it interesting.
I have also included an 'about' section that gives you basic information about the instrument, a list of reading and listening matter ('reference') and links to some of the other hurdy-gurdy sites on the net. In the links section I have tried to include as many UK links as I can, since that is where I live!
I hope you enjoy the pages and am always interested in hearing from other players or enthusiasts. If you would like any other information or just to chat, please email me at jon@carlton.powernet.co.uk.
