Werries Hurdy-Gurdy Workshop

Andreas Werries: A passion for hurdy-gurdies

The hurdy-gurdy fascinates with its sound, its history and its expressiveness. In my workshop, I create carefully crafted instruments that combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology – reliable, powerful sounding and suitable for the stage.

Whether you are at home in dance music, play historical pieces or want to explore new worlds of sound – my hurdy-gurdies offer you a solid foundation with well thought-out details. You can choose between different features and functions to suit your playing style and requirements.

I take the time for personal advice, auditions and open discussions – because the path to a good instrument doesn’t start with building it, but with mutual understanding.

If you are looking for an instrument that inspires and accompanies you, you can buy a hurdy-gurdy here – please get in touch by e-mail.
Workshop visits are possible by appointment.
