▶ MidiGurdy Trompette Visualization video



▶ MidiGurdy Trompette Visualization - YouTube

"Connect the MidiGurdy to your computer or notebook and use it to visualize your right hand technique. These are the first experiments... but I think this could already help a lot with practice and even when teaching students."

Published on Jun 19, 2015 
"In this video I demonstrate the real-time visualization of trompette impulses on the MidiGurdy. The instrument is connected to a computer. When I turn the wheel the visualization is updated instantaneously. Impulses are highlighted as a heatmap, impulse onsets can optionally be marked with a blue line.
"The aim of this visualization is to help playes practice their trompette impulses, to check if they put the impulses in the right place. But it could also be used as a teaching tool. Show your students where you put your impulses and they will understand it quicker than just by hearing."


The MidiGurdy is a fully electronic hurdy gurdy. It is designed as a tool for quiet practice without disturbing your family or neighbours.

Dans le décor enchanteur d’un des plus beaux villages du Québec, Chants de Vielles représente une occasion privilégiée de partager, dans un cadre intimiste, l’univers acoustique de musiciens d’ici et d’ailleurs. Y prédominent les instruments à cordes dont la voix, le violon et la vielle à roue.
En se jouant des frontières et des genres musicaux, ce happening propose de vivre, dans un cadre ludique à échelle humaine, des expériences musicales de qualité. En explorateur, le festivalier est convié à la découverte des chants, des musiques et des danses du Québec et d’ailleurs.

Espace des luthiers: Les visiteurs pourront arpenter encore cette année le coin des artisans auquel s’ajoutera en nouveauté cette année, l’Espace des luthiers, qui permettra non seulement d’admirer, mais d’entendre le fruit de leur travail, lors d’animations musicales en journée.

* -ENGLISH-
We can’t quite believe that there is just a month to go until the start of the festival and with an already packed programme of events.
The timeless Scottish Quintet BREABACH; the Moncton indie-folk-country trio LES HAY BABIES (winner at 2015 East Coast Music Awards); from Brittany, the magnificent a cappella trio BROU-HAMON-QUIMBERT and the awesome quartet ‘NDIAZ; from New England, the scholar and virtuoso TIM ERIKSEN with his trio Pumpkintown; multi-disciplinary artist MICHEL FAUBERT; the master French piper ERIC MONTBEL and hurdy-gurdy player MARC ANTHONY; Quebec’s mythical group ENTOURLOUPE; Irish-Quebecers MATCHING KEYS; the great multi-instrumentalist JEAN-FRANÇOIS BÉLANGER; the power trio from Lanaudière DE TEMPS ANTAN; and singer MELISANDE with her electro-trad project will be among the 60 artists from Québec, Europe, and North America who will take part in the 11th edition of Chants de Vielles on June 26, 27, and 28, 2015.
In the enchanting setting of one of the most beautiful villages in Quebec, Chants de Vielles is a unique opportunity to share the world of acoustic musicians and music in an intimate setting. You will experience the music of a multitude of instruments including voice, fiddle, and the hurdy-gurdy.
Breaking borders and genres, this event takes place in a lovely setting on a comfortable scale with the highest quality musical experience. Visitors are invited to explore and discover songs, music, and dances from Quebec and elsewhere. The collaborations between musicians and visitors of many countries and cultures provide value as they feed creativity and open-mindedness.
More than 45 workshops and concerts will be presented continuously in three areas including an amphitheater on the Richelieu River as well as historical local buildings.
Among the other highlights of this festive weekend include the assembly of singers and the Fest-Noz (Bal night Breton), on-stage meetings of singers and musicians, the hiking song, and the famous Parade of singers, musicians, and the curious through the streets of the village.
Even more for families!
This year there is a stronger emphasis on programming and activities developed specially for children. Scheduled are creative workshops, shadow theater, storytelling, and many kinds of dance. Not to be missed is the P’tit Bal Folk Saturday night, a happy meeting between children and parents to sing and dance to nursery rhymes and songs. Fun and laughter for the whole family is guaranteed!
The Luthiers Space
Visitors will be able to visit again this year the Village of Artisans and the newly added Luthier’s space (making or repairing string instruments), which will allow visitors to not only admire, but hear the result of the Luthier’s work during demonstrations.

14-16 AUGUST; Eindhoven, NL: Parkfest 2015



Parkfest is een mooie verzameling van muziekstijlen, die allemaal terug te voeren zijn op de basis “Folk” . In de in totaal 30 optredens zie je de Ierse muziektraditie terugkomen, met opzwepende violen en ritmische bodhrans. Maar ook de Engels Folk, met ballads en verhalen zul je op Parkfest vinden. De aansluiting bij Pagan folk, ruige Keltische muziek enerzijds, de Singer/Songwriters met intieme liedjes aan de andere kant. En dat muziek niet alleen is om op een stoel naar te luisteren, dat vind je in de Balfolk die uit Frankrijk en België naar Nederland is over komen waaien, dat is muziek die bedoeld is om op te dansen.

Verder over de grens hebben we Amerikaanse vormen van Folk, zoals Blue Grass. Daarnaast laten we Nederlandse folktraditie niet onbelicht. Tot slot laten we bezoekers graag verrassen met cross-overs met andere muziekstijlen. Hoe je het ook bekijkt: De muziek van Parkfest boeit!

Editie 2 van Parkfest is op 14, 15 en 16 augustus in het Philips de Jonghpark, Eindhoven. Kaartjes zijn te krijgen op: http://parkfest.nl/?post_type=product.
