Title: Re: [scots-l] dots needed,
please
Would you like a copy of the music in normal music notation?
Contact me off list and I'll fax or snail mail. I've always heard it
as AABA, by the way. It looks a lot scarier on the page than it is to
play it.

Hi ye all,

Steve,
I have a copy, got one years ago by some miracle. I love it - don't
have any tech know-how, though. Don't think I'd be able to post
anything. Still, we'll talk soon...
Jan Tappan
Me too! Any chance of posting some clips?

the website URL for that. I'm not sure if the page numbers quoted
below came from the original or from the newly retypset reissue.

I bow it: down, down, up-down-up, down-up-down, up-down-up, with the
first down being short and sort of staccato - I'm not sure I'm using
the right terms. I use the same bowing for the rest of the phrases
that are similar in that section.

It's a collection of tunes arranged for Scottish country dancing.
That's what my copy is, anyway. Ed Pearlman arranged it and you can
get it from him via Portland America, probably. There's a web site...
