▶️ Watch on 3Speak --- We went on a time-travelling adventure yesterday. Ok, ok, it wasn't exactly an adventure, but just a regular trip to the past. It is pretty easy and normal, you get a ticket ...

@edje: Hahahaha ... how nice! You found the time machine {LOL} I believe I heard this hurdy whatever before. May not be in real life but in some record, track. Donno anymore, but somehow the sound sounded familiar. From your post, I read that it may take longer when going further back in time? <My experience is that it sometimes isn't adding up. I mean, I've jumped back for centuries but travelled in a split second. Maybe the time machine went through some kinda time accelerator? Something invoked in specific circumstances? Next time when it happens, I shall take notice of this and try and figure out the reason for such fast time travelling {UPSIDE DOWN SMILEY} Uhm, what was the fun element of these walking street musicians? Sorry for asking, tried to find the 'fun' in the video. Maybe I missed it though {SAD ish FACE} Glad you NJOYed some street music! {WINK}
@fotostef: You do have a thing with time travelling, don't you? If I am not mistaken, the first post of yours that I ever read, was about a walk that you saw a clock on the street displaying the wrong time and you made up an hilarious time travelling story :) Maybe a tv show like Voyagers left its mark on your younger self?
@dswigle: It's a hurdy gurdy! I saw a few street musicians in Boston trying their skills at them. What a fun post and what a great player of the bagpipes. :) It just wouldn't sound the same without his traditional clothing. It adds to the entire feel! It sure made me smile! I am such a great tourist. Thanks for taking us along with you! Hey!! Wait up! I ned to hop on a travel back!
@grindle: Mr Hurdy Gurdy is one of the happiest men I have ever seen!! I had to smile just looking at him.
@franciscodesousa: wow wow that has been a great and fun trip back in time. Note that I watched the video before reading the post and the sound caught my attention while I was reading what was in the video. I thought for a moment that it was some kind of electronic instrument and it was this gentleman with the silver beard giving this instrument a lot of revolutions 🎷, I noticed that lowering the revolutions changes the sound. It's the first time I've seen an instrument like this and I've been fascinated. very good post. I'm curious about the location. It's very nice and if you add the smell of bread 🍞😍. great post ✨.
@avdesing: What a fantastic instrument, I've never seen it before, and it sounds phenomenal! I loved your time travel! I ask you a question, is this community only about music? Or what inspires an instrument? Too bad I don't know how to play any of them.... I love the publication, it's magical!
@denisda: Fantástico @mipiano . Aquí en cuba hay un instrumento nativo que se llama el órgano oriental. Es patrimonio cultural. Suena muy bien y forma parte de las tradiciones cubana y su música
@pumarte: Wow the first was really cool instrument I haven't seen it before, un sonido muy bonito, and the others musicians are like a party jajajajaja especially the last one he is like the hombre orquesta!!! I loved it!
@bertrayo: That's one of the coolest instruments I've even seen. I knew about it because I did my deep dive into luthierie. It's part violin, part piano, part machine and lot more things. Talk about multitasking while playing. That must be a tough one to play. The other guys were having a blast with their performance. We call those kind of groups retretas and they consist of percussion instruments and wind instruments just like that one. I guess that were they come from. Really nice ticket to the past. I came back to drop this comment. 👀😃
@rosana6: I was not familiar with this traditional instrument. How nice that you had the opportunity to travel back in time, see and learn about instruments and rhythms with an ancient tradition and rich culture. Through your post I enjoyed the trip too.
@socialmeteor: So cool! A wheel fiddle. Who knew ?? I would love to go back to a simpler time like that. I'm thinking this is Spain?? Looks very nice. Seen a palm tree :)
@nanixxx: It is true that you have traveled in time, the evidence is the face and expressions of that man (there are two people in it, a young man and an old man, as you could observe) ... Seeing him, I was impressed, and his image keeps coming to my mind. And what is behind it (the spinning wheel, la rueca o hilar, en español)... where were you, in a fairy tale? The girl pricked her finger there, she became the sleeping beauty and the medieval musician was the valiant prince with his zanfoña playing for her, to wake her up. For a moment, I thought of your previous post (the frog). Maybe that frog in the previous post was just asleep too, in the trance of becoming this prince, that girl maybe kissed the frog there, and as she was one of those hallucinogenic ones, the girl fell here, on the spinning wheel... and the music of the hurdy gurdy (me gusta más zanfoña).... ¿o será al revés? It's confusing. This post needed at its end that of don't worry, (be) confused. hahaha... ... (ya llegué con mis locuras, lo sé 😆 Un abrazo mipiano, muy bonito viaje al pasado nos regalaste) (you know + version 2)
@wilfredocav: I have heard this instrument from metal bands like Eluviette, and it was the first time I heard about this musical instrument and I really love that sound mixed with the sound of the metal genre. Greetings ! !discovery 40
@mayt: Never seen those musical instruments as well. It's beautiful to see they're still using those things. 😍 And learn from them.
@themagus: Damn, is THAT what a hurdy gurdy is? Never too old to learn !! And that drummer... what a weird way to play... he gets first prize for creativity. I really enjoyed this post !!
