The hurdy-gurdy, or vielle, has been part of European musical life
since the eleventh century. In eighteenth-century France,
improvements in its sound and appearance led to its use in chamber
ensembles. This new and expanded edition of The Hurdy-Gurdy in
Eighteenth-Century France offers the definitive introduction to the
classic stringed instrument. Robert A. Green discusses the
techniques of playing the hurdy-gurdy and the interpretation of its
music, based on existing methods and on his own experience as a
performer. The list of extant music includes new pieces discovered
within the last decade and provides new historical context for the
instrument and its role in eighteenth-century French culture.
