It's the last week before Lent when people eat a lot and make pancakes. Making pancakes during that period dates back to pagan times of course (kind of a sun symbol or something). In Western terms it's roughly like the mardi gras festival or Shrovetide. Approximately.

@LeandroR99 Po se eu não me engano, o nome mais exato desse instrumento em portugues é Vihele (ou viele) de roda. Abraços :)

[MrUdsmykke]

until now, i have never seen that instrument before. Strange sound and strange instrument but i like it a lot. I have heard its sound before but i didn't know how it was. Thanks.

Na Galiza é un instrumento ben coñecido chamado zafona.

[LeandroR99]

O nome em inglês é hurdy gurdy.

Segundo a wikipédia o nome é português é sanfona ou viola de roda.

[Geratewart]

from Russia :)

[instinct8will]

yes indeed. its definitively a hurdy gurdy. medieval instrument from Europe.

[SpawnofHastur]

The instrument is, I believe, a regional variation of the hurdy gurdy, otherwise known as the wheel fiddle.
