Thread Name: Tune Req: Roslin Castle
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Roslin Castle
There are two songs to the tune in 'The Scots Musical Museum'. For earlier copies of the tune see the Scots tune index on my website (www.erols.com/olsonw). Said to have been a favorite funeral march in the U.S. in the 1st half of the 19th century, according to a book on American Martial music that I once saw.
