When coming here I had another picture in my mind. And the last piece of Schubert's "Winterreise" in my ears – The Hurdy Gurdy Man: Back of the village stands a hurdy-gurdy man, cranking his instrument with frozen fingers. His begging bowl is always empty; no one listens, and the dogs growl at him. But his playing never stops. "Strange old man. Shall I come with you? Will you play your hurdy-gurdy to accompany my songs?" Ah, this kind of hurdy gurdy is new to me. When coming here I had another picture in my mind.
