For me, too, it has been Tjerk who introduced me to the hurdy gurdy. I may have only seen him once as a kid, but I'll never forget him playing 'Pipi Langkous' for my little brother. I still am waiting for a chance to get a hurdy gurdy myself, thanks to Tjerk.
That is very very sad information :( This guy was special for me because when I heard the hurdy gurdy for the first time in my life it was actually Tjerk's playing... Nothing is forgotten... R.I.P. Tjerk
@FlyingSnake110 I believe it's a variation on the musical accompanyment "Petit Riens", which is an Italian dance from the 15th century. There's several videos (including the Hurdy Gurdy double header video) in youtube of other people playing or dancing it.
This guy used to play in a band called Halewyn, as far as I remeber. His music brought me to Hurdy Gurdy actually. Anyone knows him or the band called Halewyn?
sinds ik hem jaren geleden in het archeon heb zien spelen ben ik helemaal weg van de draailier. hij speelde toen pippi langkous voor mijn broertje. lol

@mrpala Yes, he's called Tjerk Schipper. If you want to contact him, let me know. I can't just put his e-mail on internet due to privacy.

It was in 2002 or 2003, I guess.

Hurdy Gurdy's zijn echt vet. Doet me altijd denken aan historische (folk) muziek...
