[NSP] Re: [NPS-Discussion] Robert Bewick tune
This thread seems to have been split between the dartmouth and NPS groups so I'm resending this bit to both. I've since checked SMM and found that the link ([1]www.gleeman.org) provided by Richard gives an inaccurate transcription and midi of SMM, which is actually closer to Oswald than it appears. I will post a corrected version later. Is anyone still interested in this tune? --- As promised, Oswald's version. I'd be interested in people's preferences between this and the Burns/SMM, and also which key sits better. Any other versions known?

[NSP] Re: [NPS-Discussion] Robert Bewick tune
Hi Matt, Thanks for producing the 'abc' of the tune. That's really helpful. In web searches I've so far found transcriptions in D and in C but both appear to me to go back to Oswald. In regard to what you said about where this search might go, I've not yet found any local variant, not any other tune under the same or a very similar name (having said that, I've been busy over the last few days, so I haven't looked very thoroughly).

Thank you, Barry. I have just signed and can confirm that 'signatures' are still acceptable. I hope others will find it possible to follow Barry's suggestion fairly rapidly.
