Having mastered playing hurdy-gurdy Andrey took part in numerous musical festivals in Russia and abroad and recorded two albums dedicated to the Russian wheel lyre ("Russian Hurdy-Gurdy Tunes" and "Russian Strolling Beggars Tunes"), and three CDs - "Music For Hurdy-Gurdy", "Aequilibrium", and "Distant Calls" – where he plays European hurdy-gurdy crafted by the famous European master Wolfgang Weichselbaumer.
