This is amazing! From 1991. Is it old news? Common knowledge? I had no idea it existed.

I've put the whole thing into a PDF and created a separate page for easy downloading.

Thanks, that worked a treat!

I appreciate your faithfulness to the text, Steve -- that's what I was hoping for. And a possible goal of mine is to add the lyrics in. One of the things I took away from my interview with Frederic Paris was his pointing out that the vocal tradition attached to this dance music is important. Every tune, it seems, has a lyric, which is very different from the traditions around reels and jigs etc.
BTW, which utility (free if possible) would you recommend to print the whole book as one? I'm not actually an ABC master.
Thanks again
Gary

Thanks, not many places that joke would fly. I once saw a tee shirt with a fermata on it that said, "Hold me."

A tune from the La Bourrée tunebook, performed by Claude Neupont. Very light touch.

Once we've got to the end of the book, and have some clarification of the copyright status, we can re-assess options then.
Thanks so much! It's thrilling -- really -- to see this develop.

So, I sent a note to Thierry Borrel, president of the Paris branch, introducing the project and asking his organization's blessing. I am on tenterhooks,

I see there is another Bonnet (Charlene) in view here.
Over to you Gary!
And following through your links I find "La bourré" Paris (founded in 1925).
I will be contacting! At the moment I have a copyright notice on the blog, but not on the specific posts. I think I'll add that. "Creative Commons"? Is that appropriate?

A little thing you might want to fix (as it may get quoted by others praps) in the first section of the blog is mention of the title
Recuil de "La
I think it might be
RecuEil de "La
Lots of potential translators I see, and if someone takes charge of doing that and wants to share around a few pages for each person to do, then I don't mind knocking out a few in English
It's pretty exciting to watch it unfold. My vision of it is as a completely, freely available public thingy.
Good catch on that typo. I will fix it.

Yes, I had checked there before blogging. Thanks for looking for "chants," though.
