[NSP] Re: [NPS-Discussion] Robert Bewick tune

2009-08-04 Thread Matt Seattle
   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?

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).

Thanks again,

Richard

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.
