i remember my dad talking about a "hury gurdy" 40 odd years ago. Today i looked on youtube to find out what it was.....and found this! what an absolute, beautiful sound! i must say i think I've heard the most spine-tingling musical instrument ever.

Apart from an excellent performance and tune, the sound is great as well, sometimes they can sound very harsh to a newbie to the HG like me but this is great. I can't justify an instrument so I've had to settle for a virtual one from Sonokinetic, it won't be the same I know, but better than nowt. Thanks for posting.

After a whole month since my last comment, if I can take my eyes from the screen for 3.13 minutes, I've come to REALLY appreciate the utterly beautiful depth of the harmonies you create Nigel - gives me goosebumps. Also come to appreciate this tune is totally way up there alongside my other extreme favourites and your Dad's great skill in building these fabulous instruments - Theresa

Well, this song has been playing on repeat for me for the past while, I can't get enough of it! This hurdy gurdy sounds beautiful, and the layering of it all is really something! Really fascinating to see those chord-keys at work too, Chris Eaton is a master of his craft! I'd love to buy one of his hurdy gurdies some day! Is that a possibility?

Hi Nigel. Just really learned what a hurdy gurdy is a few months ago, (from you), so I'm not knowledgeable, as are many of your followers. But I do know what I like, and having now listened to all your songs, (and even your training videos), I love this song the best. I don't know what you were thinking of when you composed it, but I picture the Indoor Tree, sad and dark in the beginning, and then fantasizing a life back in the woods, as sunlight touches it through the window. I know, not even close, but there you go. ;-) Hope to hear more new songs from you soon.
