Little Robyn So, what became of the lyre? (49) RE: So, what became of the lyre? 27 Apr 13

Just found a ref that suggests bourdon is the name of drone strings on a hurdy gurdy. That would figure - the bourdon lyres are tuned to one chord and I guess it just 'drones' in the background. So you either need several lyres or you learn songs with only 1 or 2 chords!
Still sounds lovely.
