Medieval Magic: Beowulf Reimagined with Hurdy-Gurdy and Theremin
From Peter Pringle:
This is a short excerpt from the 8th century epic tale of BEOWULF. The instrument I am using to accompany myself is called a hurdy-gurdy , a popular instrument of medieval Europe. The hurdy-gurdy in this video was made for me by Alden and Cali Hackmann of Olympic Musical Instruments in Indianola, Washington, and is a fully equipped electro-acoustic instrument with a built-in sound console.
Hurdy-gurdy players, like bagpipe players, cannot control the volume of their instruments which makes it difficult to use for accompanying the human voice but the intensity and sheer volume of the instrument also made it ideal for great halls and public places in ancient times. One advantage that it has is that it is a complete instrument, able to play melody, harmony and rhythm.
The hurdy-gurdy in this video is plugged into an RSP Technologies Intelliverb processor which I control with a MIDI Ground Control foot switch. The only other instrument used in this video is a Moog Ethervox theremin.
The original Beowulf epic was written in Old English which is no longer spoken and cannot be understood by English speakers today. I used a modern adaptation of the words for this video.

Will Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver Redeem Part One? [Official Trailer]
Here is the first trailer for the second part of Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon. I haven’t watched part 1 yet because of the overwhelmingly negative reviews from some of my friends, but now that the two parts are out, I might give it a try. Who knows, maybe part II will redeem the movie? I strongly doubt so, but who knows? I might be wrong.
REBEL MOON — PART TWO: THE SCARGIVER continues the epic saga of Kora and the surviving warriors as they prepare to sacrifice everything, fighting alongside the brave people of Veldt, to defend a once peaceful village, a newfound homeland for those who have lost their own in the fight against the Motherworld. On the eve of their battle the warriors must face the truths of their own pasts, each revealing why they fight. As the full force of the Realm bears down on the burgeoning rebellion, unbreakable bonds are forged, heroes emerge, and legends are made.
From Zack Snyder, the filmmaker behind 300, Man of Steel, and Army of the Dead, REBEL MOON is a 2-part movie event decades in the making.
REBEL MOON — PART ONE: A CHILD OF FIRE is now playing on Netflix.
REBEL MOON — PART TWO: THE SCARGIVER premieres on Netflix April 19, 2024.
