JC's Online Music Books

Here's what you'll find here:

Northumbrian Minstrelsy: by J Collingwood Bruce & John Stokoe (1882).
The O'Neill's Project: The original O'Neill's Project transcribed all of O'Neill's 1850 into ABC. This is my copy of Dan Beimborn's original web site that housed the project. This may be the largest single ABC transcription project so far (but I'd like to hear of others).
The Playford Collection: This collection started as a backup copy of the version housed at the Ceolas archive, in the Playford.abc file.. Since then, I've collected more Playford tunes from various sources, and added a few transcriptions of my own. If there's a Playford tune that you'd like to add, send me email.
The Ryan/Cole collection: A few of us are working on transcribing the contents of this historically important collection into ABC. If you'd like to help, send me email.

The Skye Collection: Ralph Parker transcribed this historic Scottish collection, and sent me new tunes every month or so. I put them here.

All of these collections would benefit from proofreading by anyone with a printed copy. If you find errors, send me email.
