Hurdy-gurdy Assembly

The originator and coordinator of the event, Przemysław Kwiatkowski, invites minstrels, troubadours and storytellers of all kinds to a social gathering.

Whether you live near or far, whether you have a hurdy-gurdy or not, or perhaps you would like to have one – you are welcome to come and join us. We will sing, play and talk, as was customary at hurdy-gurdy assemblies in the olden days, in order to exchange news, stories and songs in accordance with tradition.

There will be those who build hurdy-gurdies – an opportunity to place an order or talk about ordering one – there will be those who play simply and those who play complexly.

We invite all those who want to sing Polish, Belarusian and other beggar songs. There will be talk of God, of poverty, of apocryphal and cheerful things.

But above all, we will meet to celebrate with song and wine the opportunity to spend time together. Bring your hurdy-gurdies, bring yourselves, bring something for the communal table if you wish, and come, because it’s worth it.
