Subject: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: MMario Date: 05 Oct 00 - 10:05 AM for the first thread on this please see thread 23672 Note: We reserve the right to edit or delete messages in this thread, and we may delete tunes once they are available in the Digital Tradition. There's an effort about to collect tunes for all the Digital Tradition songs. The missing tunes thread (click) has information about tunes that are needed, and about tunes that have been posted in other locations. The Mudcat Cafe has over 23,000 threads posted so far, so we have to take some care to ensure that we don't lose tunes and lyrics that are posted.
I hope that clears up what we need. I'm sure Dick Greenhaus will drop in from time to time to give us further instructions. If you post your tunes here in this thread or send them to Mudcat MIDIs or to Dick, it will make it much easier for us to make use of them. Thanks. -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Joe Offer Date: 05 Oct 00 - 07:24 PM Remember that Dick Greenhaus is the only one who has the technical ability to add tunes to the database, and it's a tedious process. He does his best to match the first verse of the lyrics to the tune. It will be a long time before all these tunes can be incorporated into the database - but at least we have them available right here, right now. Thanks to all for this great work. Keep it coming. -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: John in Brisbane Date: 11 Oct 00 - 10:42 PM Congratulations to all those who've contributed so avidly in the last few months. I have a couple of extra points to make here:
I've seen a number of tunes posted that are repeats of previous work done. Sorry Snuffy, but The Stone Outside is a case in point. It's a pity if a labour of love could have been better used on something else. I can't remember if it was Alison or I who did the original posting, but I've only recently discovered that some of my earlier postings don't appear to have made it into the Midis. I'll review MMario's list, but I must admit I forget them fairly quickly after I've worked on them.
I was very interested to read the note about NWC at the top of this thread. I'll need some time to provide a more detailed response. What I will say briefly now is that asking contributors to do the little bit of work up front will (hopefully) save Dick a huge amount of work later on. More of this anon.
Regards, John |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: MMario Date: 12 Oct 00 - 09:23 AM Addendum to John's note: I have tried to find as many of the midi's that were posted to the forum as possible, but I keep finding more. If there is anyone out there who would like to concentrate on searching the forum for midi's feel free to volunteer! Finding one of the "lost" tunes in the forum and positng it's location is a valuable contribution, as it eliminates duplications such as we have found on occassion. Likewise, I will gladly e-mail out the updated file of "songs without tunes" on request. I update daily at this point. |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Snuffy Date: 14 Oct 00 - 08:49 AM John, I've been back through all the missing tune threads to check, and am fairly certain that there is no mention of 'The Stone Outside Dan Murphy's Door' having been posted by anyone at all. We're all working off Mmario's list and his updates on the threads. If people are posting stuff and not telling Mario, then we're going to get a lot more duplications. Wassail! V |

Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Sorcha Date: 01 Feb 01 - 10:12 PM The tune below for Arbutus is what Bronson gives, but the words are very different from what is in the DT. No idea if the tune will work.

Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Malcolm Douglas Date: 02 Feb 01 - 08:30 AM A clue to the problem with Arbutus lies in the attribution: "trad/grater". Apparantly, this should be [Paddy] Graber, who has taken some bits of Willie O' Winsbury and drastically rewritten the song. The transformation into a tree business doesn't appear in any of Child's examples, or in any other version that I've ever come across; that, presumably, is entirely Graber's invention. That being the case, it's also quite likely that he set it to another tune; all the traditional examples I know of (including the one Sorcha quotes) are sung to variants of the same melody, with the fourth line of each verse repeated as a refrain, which would be one reason why the Child melody doesn't fit "Arbutus". There is an example, collected by Cecil Sharp in the early years of the 20th century, at Willie O' Winsbury, though the accompanying text is from elsewhere. Actually, the tune best-known nowadays for Willie was composed for that very set of words by (I think) Andy Irvine in the 1960s; it was almost instantly assumed to be traditional because it was so convincing, and Fairport Convention set Farewell, Farewell to it on that assumption. That tune fits "Arbutus"... Malcolm P.S. Sorcha: which of Child's examples does the tune you posted belong to? PPS. MMario: that means that "Farewell Farewell" needs to go back on the "Missing" list, as the "Willie" tune in the DT is the wrong one for it. |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: MMario Date: 02 Feb 01 - 08:39 AM got it! |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Sorcha Date: 02 Feb 01 - 09:42 AM Malcolm, I honestly don't know, because the tune I posted is the one given by Child himself in the Appendix to Vol. 5. I am not currently in possession of Vol. 2, where Child's versions of 100 are.
Bronson gives 6 tunes, none of which are the one Child gives......but similar to the Group A, 1. tune. (Titled O Will Ye Marry my Daughter Janet--but no lyrics given) Bronson also gives 5 lyric variants' If we're going to get into all Child variants and all possible/available tunes, I think we would have to start a whole new DT to handle it....... |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Malcolm Douglas Date: 02 Feb 01 - 11:53 AM We probably would! None of the versions in volume 2 mention Miss M. Macmath, which is why I asked. Perhaps she appears in addenda somewhere; I managed to find a (relatively) cheap set in Australia the other day, so I will soon be able to check without traipsing all the way to the library (airmail permitting). You'll have noticed that I'm quite anxious to make sure that tunes and texts are matched as closely as possible, which is why I'm always asking for more information from people; that's just the way I am... Malcolm |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: MMario Date: 02 Feb 01 - 12:51 PM Malcolm - I see your point. (and appreciate it) On the other hand - I'd just like to have tunes to the lyrics! *grin* Tho' it is nice when we can make a positive match between the lyric and the tune. Less variants would help - but we're stuck with the fact that there are probably MORE variations then we can shake a stick at! |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: Sorcha Date: 02 Feb 01 - 01:44 PM sooooo, you want me to post all 6 tunes and all 5 variants to Willie-O? Mario, you will understand the problem better when your book arrives...... |
Subject: RE: Tune Add: Please Post Tunes Here -2 From: MMario Date: 02 Feb 01 - 01:57 PM Sorcha - I would say for the present lets just match tunes with lyrics in the DT (where we can). If you want to do more, I doubt if anyone would object. 'cept possibly an anonymous guest |
