Just a little example of modern use of the HG in Galiza, NW of Spain (where Santiago de Compostela is, and maybe the oldest depiction of a HG exists, in the Portico da Gloria of the St. James Cathedral there)


this is a recent version of a mediaeval song, "Romance de Don Gaifeiros". You'll notice they are lipsyncing (TV shows love that, it's annoying). The sound is from the CD they released two years ago.

P.S. there's no trompette in the Galician style whatsoever, just so you know.

I have been given a cassette tape of an album by La Brouette, "a Satan". It has no cover does anyone out there have a track listing, its really quite a good album.   JON

Hallo,

nice video! What to expect next?

Less spectacuar, but also funny this guy from Bavaria playing Weichselbaumer Alto to a funky "folk tune" … Enjoy. 


Also, you may want to check Stefan Strubinger's  other videos. His 
bandoneon hip-hop version of the old folk song "Hans bleib da" (Hans, stay here!) is worth watching. (You have to stand the introduction …)


Best regards,
Uli

Thanks Paul. This is a wonderful site. I have quite a few of these LP's and original K7s bought at St C
 I do have a copy of the cover but still no titles. Anyone else out there with any info. JON
