Hello,
I was contacted to play hurdy gurdy for this movie.

wanted a hurdy gurdy in the film. They wanted me to
play the tune Good King Wenceslas on Tom Hanks own
hurdy gurdy. His hurdy
Strenght comes with practice. So can carpel tunnel. Keep them wrists
straight!
Judgement comes with experience. Too much rosin is a very temporary problem:
it's easy to remove it by holding a rag to the wheel and cranking a few

Wow, fantastic. Thanks for posting the link (I see the chap that refurbished
