Chappell's One Hundred Scotch Melodies

[cboody]

After discussions with Ex Libris of this parish (who is of course the librarian for the ICA) it would seem that this odd little book isn't in the ICA collection so despite my earlier reluctance to do so I've scanned it all before giving the book away. Ex Libris likes his scans raw so he can clean them up himself so I haven't bothered with cropping etc so if you download the scans you'll have to do that yourself. Here it is then in all its glory:

 

Chappell's One Hundred Scotch Melodies.

 

Err. Try giving us the link again. This one will get the user to his/her own dropbox public folder and not yours.... (Isn't it nice to have someone constantly harping at you?

Let's hope this works! I've edited the previous link too.

I'd rather tuned out of this thread as you guys picked over the bones of individual transcriptions, but it's great to see the whole project finished.

 

Thanks for posting the pre-release PDF, and I look forward to the release abc file.

 

Well done Peter!

[Pete Dunk]

Right, I hope I've this right and that the links work, please let me know if there is a problem!

 

Here we have the final versions of the PDF and the .abc files. Thanks to Chuck Boody for creating a PDF with an index!

Erm, could someone please tell me if the links in my last post work? They work for me of course but I'm the account holder!

So, I finally had time to actually look at the post for the completed Chappell's Scottish Melodies PDF--in the Dropbox. Be still my heart. I just set-up Dropbox for myself and I was able to suck down that entire download into the IPad app "ForScore" with narrie a hiccup. Sometimes I amaze myself. Isn't it funny how "NEED" can be such a motivating factor to learn these geeky new skills. As for the Scottish tunes, these scores are perfect for a bump-up in my skill sets--they will be a good challenge, to get me playing more than just a single melody line--so thank-you for that TallShip!!
