Robert Ridell - Collection of Scotch Galwegian & Border Tunes

A Collection of Scotch Galwegian & Border Tunes


Published by Robert Riddell
Edinburgh, 1794

There are a few tunes that use some of ABC features that have recently been introduced, such as grace notes with lengths. A lot of "version 1" ABC software may not understand these features, so at attempt has been made to transcribe such tunes in a way compatible with the older software. These files have names ending in "-V1.abc" and "-V2.abc", and the '_' after the tune number has been changed to '-' or '=' to make it easy to distinguish them in the Makefile. This applies to the "all tunes" files, too, of course.

The tunes are gathered into two "all tunes" files, named Riddell1.abc and Riddell2.abc; the initial articles in these files have been capitalized to better match the capitalization used in the book (which is somewhat inconsistent).
