Instruments by Robert Mandel – MEDIEVAL CHIFONIE (Symphonia), ANGELICK HURDY GURDY, RENAISSANCE HURDY GURDY

MEDIEVAL CHIFONIE (Symphonia)
An accurately built, very loud and nice instrument for travellers, beginners and early music players!




ANGELICK HURDY GURDY
"I was basically inspired by Gaudenzio Ferrari’s monumental fresco. Among the 116 angels he depicted there is one hurdy-gurdy player with a very rare form of the instrument. This “ghironda angelico” looks like a small organistrum with a renaissance keyboard. My aim was to make a perfect renaissance hurdy-gurdy ornamented with the authentic period patterns and build with the best playable components…"




RENAISSANCE HURDY GURDY
Renaissance hurdy gurdy inspired by Jacques Callot’s drawing of the “Capitano di Baroni” (captain of the barony) from 1622.
