The Hurdy-gurdy Method  Doreen Muskett’s Hurdy-gurdy Method, first published in 1979, has proved of immense value to players all around the world. The third edition, revised by Michael Muskett, improves still further a book that already stands as an exemplar for instrumental methods. The method is written for instruments tuned in G/C, where the keys and notation are the same as a piano. But it is equally useful for D/G hurdy-gurdies. |
