Hurdy-gurdy, a genre deeply rooted in medieval European folk traditions, is characterized by its distinctive instrumentation, featuring the hurdy-gurdy, a stringed instrument played by a crank-turned wheel, accompanied by percussion, woodwinds, and strings. Emerging in the 1990s, this revivalist style, often classified as folk metal or medieval rock, draws inspiration from ancient Celtic, Norse, and Slavic musical heritage. Typically marked by driving rhythms, haunting melodies, and robust vocals, hurdy-gurdy music evokes a sense of mysticism and nostalgia, often incorporating elements of mythological and historical storytelling. This genre's cultural significance lies in its ability to reconnect listeners with Europe's rich musical past, while its dynamic fusion of traditional and modern elements has influenced a range of contemporary folk and metal styles.
