Hi Jeff, Here's a library list that every hurdy gurdy player should own:
1. Hurdy gurdy method - Doreen Muskett, revised by Michael Muskett www.hurdygurdymethod.co.uk (This is the book you're asking about. You need to email Michael Muskett directly to order from the UK. He accepts payment by PayPal) 2. "The Hurdy-gurdy: Setup and Maintenance" by Philip Destrem and Volker Heidemann The "Owner's Guide" for all HG players! Appears on eBay fairly regularly - I got mine from Dusty Strings in Seattle. 3a "Tutor for Hurdy Gurdy" - Neil Brook 3b "Hurdy Gurdy Maintenance" www.hurdy-gurdy.org.uk Very well regarded - order from his website. Don't forget to order NTSC, but any format will play on a PC 4 “Learning to play the hurdy-gurdy” - Dr Ina Lemm http://www.drehleier-musik.de/index.php?int=1 Order from her website. Don't forget to order NTSC, but any format will play on a PC Two more books, if you're interested in French Baroque: 5. The Hurdy-Gurdy in Eighteenth-Century France - Robert A. Green This is nearly alway available on eBay 6. Richard Haynes Music Services http://www.richardhaynesmusicservices.com/index.htm Richard Haynes has done extensive (and valuable!) research on the Baroque HG and has published several contemporary methods and music collections. There are several other sources of goodies (it's surprising how much there is out there) which I shall collate and send to David McCoy to post on HurdyGurdySociety.com (Shameless plug - please support his site!)
