The Skye Collection, Murdoch Henderson, Hunter, etc. %% Regretfully many influential late 19th century books did not give composer credits. %%%%%%%% (examples include - Kerrs, Athole and Ryan's Mammoth Collections) %% this file focuses on Marshall's tunes previously published without composer credit % NOTE - 12/19/04 % Although an abc program installed in your computer has more functionality, % a browser can now convert a properly formatted abc tune to on-screen music. % Like the 'Hotmail concept', this enables translation of abc tunes from anyone's computer. % Just 'copy' an individual tune from the text file below % Then paste contents of your clipboard into on-line form.
