Player wanted for gurdy samples project, NYC


Hi there,

I'm Connor and I own a private audio company that specializes in designing and creating sample libraries.  I have a request to make a hurdy gurdy sample library for a collection.  Basically this will entail a few hours in a studio recording every possible nuance that can be made with a hurdy gurdy, and then spending countless hours assembling and creating a playable instrument in a piece of software that can be accessed at anytime for inspiration and mockups for composers (no, this will not take away from opportunities to play on a film because it will never be the same as a real person).

The session date is yet to be determined (probably in a few months) and I would like to see what players can get to NYC.  If you are interested simply reply below and if you can attach a picture of your instrument, that would be great because it would help immensely in determining the technique I would need to approach the recording.  Also, any audio files would be great.

Once someone is selected, we will work out your payment and session details.

Look forward to hearing from all of you!

Connor

Wanted: Gurdy player for Arcade Fire cover band - TORONTO


Arcade Fire's REFLEKTOR


Arcade Fire cover band wanted: Knowledge of “hurdy gurdy” essential:

Know what a hurdy gurdy is? You too can be the next member of an Arcade Fire cover band.
Posted on Craigslist by a Toronto-based guitarist, the ad calls for 20 musicians including two violinists, a harpsichordist, a horn section that “MUST come as a package”, steel drummers, an accordion player, an organist, two drummers, back-up singers in addition to two main singers, and “someone who knows what a hurdy gurdy is”. It’s worth noting that the current touring incarnation of Arcade Fire features a measly 12 members including two Haitian drummers and former core member Sarah Neufeld.
