28 Aug 06 - 03:14 AM (#1820513) Subject: Tune Req: Hymn tune called 'Lloyd' From: Haruo I just posted the text of a Christian Animal-Rights hymn, incipit "We praise Thee, Lord, for wings and beaks", on the Hymn Text forum of the Hymn Society in the United States and Canada. My source suggests "Lloyd" as a possible tune. I find no mention of a tune name "Lloyd" in the Cyber Hymnal. The Oremus Hymnal mentions it but doesn't give a source or any other information (let alone the music itself). My fairly extensive collection of hymnals is, unfortunately, overwhelmingly American in its English-language contents; the only British English hymnal I own is the animal-rights collection Hymns for Creatures Great and Small, from which I took the text; it is a text-only collection. So I'm wondering, hopefully, if some British Mudcatter has this tune and can post it or email it to me in some usable format (preferably PDF or MIDI, or NWC)... Haruo |

28 Aug 06 - 12:29 PM (#1820773) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Hymn tune called 'Lloyd' From: Mick Pearce (MCP) Haruo - you can find a reference to the tune in the Hymn Tune Index. You can search for Lloyd as tune name (you need to accept cookies for the search to work I think). (Or you can seach for the tune number 8226 - that's the number). It returns the tune as follows: 53(5)4(2)1(D7)U12(435)4(2)1(D7) - U1D7(U2)1(3)3(24)3(5)5(465)4(3)2 - 4(3)5(4)6(5)4(3)43(243)5(4)3(2) - D5(7)6(U1)D7(U2)1(324)34(321)D7U1(3243) - [D7(7)6(U1)D7(U2)1(324)3(5)6(543)21] Meter: 8.8.8.8.0 Mode: major 3 citations, earliest in 1800 By Dr. Edward Miller. The coding is described in HTI Coding Scheme If you press the Citations button and then the Source link from the citation you'll get all the information for the tune source and text. Mick |

Odd. I know I sang it as a kid. It IS in various Welsh hymn books. sian |

29 Aug 06 - 01:26 PM (#1821824) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Hymn tune called 'Lloyd' From: Haruo Masato and Mick, you're using two quite different alphanumeric transcriptions, neither of which I have mastered. Can you name them and point me to a page where I can decipher them? (Or a converter program like concertina.net that will make scores or midis out of them?) Haruo |

29 Aug 06 - 01:30 PM (#1821829) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Hymn tune called 'Lloyd' From: MMario Harou - if you cut and past the post from Masato into concertina.net you can get midi, pdf, etc. This may work - for example |

Otherwise, I can generate a pdf from that for you. PM me an email address.

It's a recent composition (see Lloyd 503). |
