Forgive my intrusion onto the String Forum (no, I haven't had a damascene conversion as a player
), but I think you may enjoy this - I hope so.

Perwg - Sille Ilves
Forthcoming in hard copy CDs, available to stream live now on Bandcamp &/or purchase/download - absolutely gorgeous and highly recommended!
A unique collection of traditional Welsh melodies played on hurdy-gurdy (perwg in Welsh).
Sille Ilves / hurdy-gurdy, voice, fiddle
Martin Leamon / bouzouki, guitar, 1 row melodeon
Ceri Rhys Matthews / voice
Recorded, mixed & mastered by Jens Schroeder @ Dreamworld studios, Pembrokeshire, West Wales. Released 20 March 2013
Recorded simply, using vintage Neumann mics and a customised valve desk, sound is of audiophile quality.
