Hello,
by the way, the first track on Valentin Clastrier's album from 1987 is
named "L’heure dégourdie" :-)

Hello, someone just told me that he had saw the hurdy gurdy being
referred to as a "Harpe de gourde", or gourd harp. I've never seen
this term for a HG, and was just wondering if anyone has info on
its origins. Thanks!
Are you sure it was really a gurdy? There's a West African
instrument called a gourd harp (real name is "kora"):
