  • Index of John Drewry's Dances
    Index of John Drewry's Dances DRAFT: Last Revised on October 30, 2018 © Scottish Country Dance Teachers' Association (Canada) Index of John Drewry's Dances FOREWORD John Drewry was born on the 14th of July 1923 in Melton Mowbray in Leicestershire. Sadly, he died on the 18th of June 2014 in Aberdeen. He was 90 years old. John's legacy includes a collection of dances that number more than 800, which he bequeathed the copyright to Teachers' Association (Canada) (hereafter referred to as TAC). TAC's first action has been to create a comprehensive list of all dances written by John Drewry. Our second action will be to prepare, for sale, all of the dances in digital format. As you can imagine, this is a huge undertaking with more than 800 dances on the list, so it will take some time. Our aim is have each dance available individually, as part of a collection of dances from a particular source, and finally, as the complete collection. A project of this size and scope does not happen at the hands of only one person. The TAC executive would like to thank everyone who has had a hand in organizing, printing, cross checking, providing missing copies of dances, and of course, all of the typing. We would especially like to thank Betsy Brydon, Barbara Johnston, Anne Miller, Fiona Miller, Paul Miller, Mary Murray, Ron Wallace, Stephen Webb and Vicky Zeltins for their work on this project so far. There will be many more opportunities for more people to get involved as time goes by and requests will go out by email or through TACTalk at the appropriate time.

  • Book 2 of the Structured Learning Guide of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association
    SECOND EDITION 1993 PREFACE It is with very real pleasure that I introduce Book 2 of the Structured learning Guide of The Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association. The growing international popularity of Book 1 in the series is positive proof of the acceptance of the clear concise teaching methods being used in the education programme now introduced. Pipe band enthusiasts all over the world are due a debt of gratitude to the members of the team of diligent, talented personnel who have created and presented this comprehensive and imaginative learning aid. This debt will be amply repaid by the conscientious use of Books 1 and 2 and by the subsequent attainment of a higher standard of performance of Pipe Band Music. E. Sturgeon PRESIDENT - 1 INTRODUCTION The Music Board of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association is delighted to present Book 2 in the Structured Learning series which covers the revised curriculum of the Intermediate Certificate course. We believe that this second publication provides a well balanced and coherent framework of learning material against which students can further develop their musical competence in piping and drumming. The successful presentation format which was established in Book 1 has been continued and built upon to ensure continuity of the learning process. It also maintains the capability of the material for use in a distance learning mode where the student has limited or perhaps no access to formal instruction. A key objective of the Music Board is to offer musical education of the highest quality and to support this by the provision of appropriate learning resource material which will be available to the membership of the Association and to the many Affiliated Associations throughout the World.

Introduction The classical music of the Highland bagpipe, usually called piobaireachd, but perhaps more correctly ceol mòr, consists of a large number of extended compositions in the form of air with variations. They were written down from oral tradition, mainly in the first half of the nineteenth century. Although pibrochs have continued to be composed since that time, especially in the last few decades, it is the pre-1850 pieces which are generally accepted as the classical canon.2 It is safe to assume that all the pibroch players who noted the music in writing spoke Gaelic as their first language.3 Certainly the great majority of pieces have been recorded with Gaelic titles as well as English. There can be little doubt that the English titles are generally translations of the Gaelic rather than the other way round.

  • On the Development and Diffusion of the Strathspey in Scottish Music WILLIAM LAMB
    Grafting Culture: On the Development and Diffusion of the Strathspey in Scottish Music WILLIAM LAMB ABSTRACT The strathspey is typically understood to be an eighteenth-century variety of fiddle music instigated by two well-known musical families native to the Spey valley region. Volume 37, pp 94-104 | ISSN 2052-3629 | http://journals.ed.ac.uk/ScottishStudies DOI: 10.2218/ss.v37i0.1797 http://dx.doi.org/10.2218/ss.37i0.1797 Grafting Culture: On the Development and Diffusion of the Strathspey in Scottish Music WILLIAM LAMB In his article, ‘Gaelic Song and the Dance’, Dr John MacInnes speculates that an early dance-song tradition may lie behind some forms of Gaelic labour song and instrumental music. He proposes that the modern Gaelic term for dancing, dannsa (< Fr dance), could have overtaken an earlier word, luinneag (2006: 262). Today, luinneag tends to mean a ‘ditty’. However, in the recent past, luinneag was used to denote ‘choral songs with vocal refrains’ (ibid), such as those found in the waulking and dance-song traditions. MacInnes suggests that dannsa might have displaced luinneag at some point to mean the dance act in a general sense, with luinneag continuing in a more limited context (262). This is an attractive argument, and it offers a sound retort to the claim that the Gaels did not dance before their contact with Norman traditions because they lacked a word for ‘dancing’. It also raises the question, could aspects of an older Gaelic dance-song tradition be lurking in ostensibly modern musical forms? MacInnes (2006: 254) proposes that tune types such as the strathspey, jig and reel might be older than they seem: ‘perhaps ceòl-beag1 borrowed initially from vocal music, whatever influences subsequently modified its genres’ (ibid.).
